Carl Åhnebrink co-founded FLEE with Alan Marzo and Olivier Duport, an art collective that works as independent publisher, record label and curatorial platform. FLEE researches forgotten musical phenomena: the history of a genre, its political roots and its place in today's socio-economic landscape, told through conversations with artists, producers and audiences. At the jazzhane Festival 2025, Carl hosted a listening session on the FLEE catalogue.

About
FLEE is an art collective founded by Alan Marzo, Olivier Duport, and Carl Åhnebrink. It operates as an independent publisher, record label, and curatorial platform. This listening session will focus on the label's catalogue.
Carl and his friends dive into what they see as unfairly forgotten musical phenomena through significant documentation and research, with the ambition to shed light on the history and evolution of a particular genre, the genealogy of its political essence, as well as its past and present position in the global socio-economic landscape.
With FLEE, they aim to demystify particular sub-cultures and the spirit of the time characterising their “microcosm” by speaking to the artists, the producers, and their audience.
