"Bulbul wurde 1996 gegrundet und ist die wohl unkonventionellste, trippigste und schrägste Rockformation
Österreichs. Die Band ist bekannt dafur, Rockmusik mit einer besonderen Leidenschaft fur dustere Ecken
und Kanten zu spielen. Musikalisch kaum in ein Genre zu pressen, sind die Mitglieder der Band - Manfred
Engelmayr, Roland Rathmair und Dieter Kern - stets ihren eigenen Weg mit stilubergreifenden
Musikelementen gegangen.
Bulbul haben ihren ganz eigenen, unverwechselbaren Stil kreiert und stehen fur sich allein als rauschhaftes
Zeugnis von Individualität und der rohen Kraft von Rock und Noise. Wer das Trio schon einmal live erlebt
hat, weiß, dass die Konzerte ein elektrisierendes und unvergessliches Erlebnis sind, bei dem die Ohren von
einem rasenden Soundgewitter umspielt werden. Die Musik ist ansteckend, frech, wild, laut, bizarr und doch
akribisch strukturiert im geordneten Chaos."
Die Berliner Sludge/Noise-Institution TREEDEON verschiebt die Grenzen von Härte und Dringlichkeit! Ihre Musik ist ein kantiges Biest aus dunklem und donnernden Sludge, das monströse Riffs und düstere Texte hauptsächlich in Richtung Magengrube abfeuert, aber trotzdem auf Herz und Kopf zielt und dadurch hochpolitisch wird.

Between the waking world and the realm of dreams, Sloe Paul weaves their music—softly spun, yet deeply resonant. A melange of psych-folk experimental singer/songwriter that’s as catchy as it is unconventional. Warm, narrative melodies hint at pop music from decades past, but constantly twirl into a very distinctive sound.
Live, Sloe Paul isn’t trying to knock you over. Instead, they pull you in with songs that take their time, unfolding gently. After some time off the road and the release of a double single last year, they’re back for 2025 with a new set of songs that have been patiently waiting to be heard.
The lineup includes Marius Schwingel (bass), Tim Bohner (drums), Marcus Schreiter (guitar), Marius Moses Alsleben (synths, guitar, vocals), Paul Abbrecht (piano, vocals).

NIXNOIES: NixNoies – or »nothing new« – is the solo project of Georgian musician and artist Nino Tsimakuridze, who operates between synth pop, lo-fi, and independent music. The arrangement was exclusively written for the
3-octave Yamaha synthesizer.
Harmonic transitions and dissonant sounds push the listener back and forth between comfort and discomfort, aiming to transport them atmospherically into an in-between world. High, partly dissonant synth sounds
and gentle, melodic vocals balance each other out, creating a sense of togetherness where each listener can hope for and dream of a conclusion.

DARTZ (NZ)
New Zealand pub-punks DARTZ ignited into existence in 2019 after vocalist Danz shit-talked his way into an opening slot for Aussie rockers The Chats — before realising he might need a band (and songs). He quickly recruited mates Crispy, Rollyz, and Clark, and the four-piece started firing out their unique brand of garage rock: fast-paced guitar-driven anthems with razor-sharp lyrics tackling everything from relatable tales of small town parents and racing to the pub after work, to hard-hitting takes on issues like decolonisation, drug testing, and megachurch pastors.
DARTZ's second album "Dangerous Day To Be A Cold One" was released via legendary Aotearoa label Flying Nun on 1 March 2024, debuting at #1 on the NZ album charts. With song names like "Bush Weed", "Gender Reveal Burnout", "Flat Inspection", "Get In On The Groundfloor", and "Learning To Drive With Dad", there's no question that DARTZ are continuing as they started: taking the piss out of every landlord, pyramid schemer and property developer under the sun, while along the way expressing a genuine love for their rural NZ upbringings and the cast of characters that fill out those small towns.
Day Clinic (DE)
International collective based in Berlin. Cold post-punk blended with furious psych rock. The soundtrack for dark days and endless nights. Debut album S/T released in 2023. New EP comes out in spring 2025.

NAP EYES’ metamorphic fifth long-player collects a cache of nine fascinating songs recorded over the four years since Snapshot of a Beginner. The Neon Gate reveals classic touchstones (the uneasy interplay of physics and philosophy, perambulatory meditations, self-interrogating soliloquies, apertures of surreality, video games), but also evidence of divergent impulses toward nonlinear abstraction and longform improvisational composition (resulting in their most discursive, deconstructed, and deliquescent songs to date) and narrative and lyric formality (including adaptations of thorny poems by Alexander Pushkin and W. B. Yeats), imparting the sense that Nap Eyes have transmuted, as has their understanding of what a song is, what it can do, where it might go.

NAIVE SET is an Amsterdam-based band that, for more than 10-years, has taken a loose approach to detailed guitar pop, making songs both easy on the ears and pleasing on repeat. In their three previous full-lengths and one EP, the band weaved together hazy and wavy with bright and shiny, channeling guitar-pop classics without being defined by them.
Dubbed “smart, highly catchy indiepop,” by VPRO 3voor12 and “classic-indie artisans” by MOJO, Naive Set is back in 2024, releasing stellar new material (compared to “silver crystal” by the Volkskrant) with the Amsterdam-based label AT EASE. Their full length, In Air Quotes, is out October 18th.
Recorded at Schenk Studio, Amsterdam, then mixed in Melbourne by Mikey Young, the Australian producer of bands like Dick Diver, Total Control, and Twerps.

Krautfuzz (impro-kraut-noise/bln) + ILan (video)
+ special surprise guest
'Live at The Church (feat. J Mascis)' record release concert
Krautfuzz
(E)
krautfuzz started out recording live improvisations at the ZONE Studio, Berlin, in November 2022.
As Imari Kokubo (drums), Dirk Dresselhaus (guitar/vocal), and Derek Shirley (bass) come from an
extended variety of musical backgrounds, including activities with the likes of Faust, Vladislav Delay
Quartet, die ANGEL, Schneider TM, Piratezombiedog, Monno, The Still, and Hi-Speed Dubbing, the
premise is to boil down stylistic concepts to their essence by playing adventurous, cathartic, and
time-transcending music without a safety net, while giving some extra attention to
communication in-between each other as well as to the individual subconsciousness. krautfuzz is
embossed by an angular-futuristic tension, spanning from fuzzed-out neo-psych-rock to
abstract, heavily processed minimalism to pure noise, and is open at the fringes, which means
the implementation of occasional, non-typical musical elements in the studio, live video
improvisations by iLan katin as well as surprise guest performers at their live shows, which
usually join in at the 2nd set of the evening and so far included luminaires such as saz player Murat
Ertel (Baba Zula), experimental saxophonist André Vida, J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.), sitar player Chandra
Shukla (Xambuca), or Eleni Poulou (ex-The Fall) & Hilary Jeffery (zeitkratzer).

krautfuzz begannen im November 2022 mit der Aufnahme von Live-Improvisationen im ZONE
Studio, Berlin. Imari Kokubo (Schlagzeug), Dirk Dresselhaus (Gitarre/Gesang) und Derek Shirley
(Bass) kommen aus den unterschiedlichsten musikalischen Bereichen und haben bereits mit
Projekten und Bands wie Faust, Vladislav Delay Quartet, die ANGEL, Schneider TM,
Piratezombiedog, Monno, The Still und Hi-Speed Dubbing gearbeitet. Die Prämisse ist, stilistische
Konzepte auf ihre Essenz zu reduzieren, indem abenteuerliche, kathartische und
zeitüberschreitende Musik ohne Sicherheitsnetz gespielt wird, wobei der Kommunikation
untereinander und dem individuellen Unterbewusstsein besondere Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wird.
krautfuzz ist geprägt von einer kantig-futuristischen Spannung, die von fuzzed-out Neo-Psych-
Rock über abstrakten, stark bearbeiteten Minimalismus bis hin zu purem Noise reicht und offen
an den Rändern ist, was die Implementierung gelegentlicher, untypischer musikalischer Elemente
im Studio, Live-Videoimprovisationen von iLan katin sowie Überraschungsgästen bei ihren
Liveshows bedeutet, die in der Regel im zweiten Set des Abends einsteigen und zu denen bisher
Koryphäen wie der Saz-Spieler Murat Ertel (Baba Zula), der Experimental-Saxophonist André Vida, J
Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.), Sitar-Spieler Chandra Shukla (Xambuca) oder Eleni Poulou (ex-The Fall) &
Hilary Jeffery (zeitkratzer) zählten.

MITRAILLE: The city of Antwerp, Belgium may be primarily known for its harbour, cathedral and diamond trade, but anyone who scratches beneath the surface can find a thriving underground scene. Especially in the last few years the great output of hardcore and garage punk bands makes one suspect that - besides massive PFAS pollution and record breaking cocaine residue levels - there must be something in the water.
Mitraille burst unto this scene in 2018 with a sound that takes the bursting-at-the-seams energy of modern day basement hardcore and injects it into a strain of diseased garage- and post punk. Think Uranium Club if they were Motörhead roadies with anger management issues. The band has been shredding its way through Europe since day one, releasing three EP's and a full album in the process. With a new album due for autumn 2024, Mitraille is ready to spread the Belgian garagecore gospel once more.

PEITSCHE! Aus der Region, für die Region, macht Peitsche aus der Not eine Tugend and blends a punk approach with minimalist sound and electronic elements. Echoing the experimental spirit of early 80s bands, Peitsche pairs simple melodies with ironic lyrics that explore the absurdities of every day life. Ist das NNNADW oder Retro-Fururismus oder Kunst, oder Müll, oder kann das weg, ja?nein?

CURSE OV DIALECT ((Surreal Hip Hop, Melbourne)

Considered as a musical anomaly on stage, theatrically savage and controversial at the crossroads of civilizations → Curse Ov Dialect is a great what-the-fuck & in-your-face which breaks with every conventional, consensual, accustomed habits…
