FONCÉ shared that they were looking forward to exchanging ideas with their dearest friend and co-conspirator for another edition of "An Archive of Beloved Things."
FONCÉ introduced KA-RABA as a Swiss-based sound auteur, DJ, cultural consultant, and visionary architect of OKRA who operates at the intersection of club culture and radical sonic architecture. They explained that her practice bridges visceral dancefloor energy with the intellectual precision of an acoustic designer, creating hypnotic, bass-driven environments where Afrofuturism collides with cutting-edge electronic experimentation.
KA-RABA‘s adaptable sonic footprint spans both premier international music landscapes and prestigious art institutions, including:
France’s Transmusicales Festival Rennes
Elysia Basel
Montreux Jazz Festival
Bozar in Brussels
Liste Art Fair Basel
Snow League Championship in Laax
They further explained that as KA-RABA evolves their practice into creative management and artistic direction, they steers complex, interdisciplinary projects with OKRA—such as the experimental moving-image installation short film "Everyday Blackness," commissioned by Kunstmuseum Basel. Whether they are behind the decks, managing large-scale cultural projects, or contributing as a strategic advisor, FONCÉ uses sound as a transformative, architectural tool to alter physical spaces and anchor collective identities.
