Start your listening year with an evening of new music and a welcome return to the stage.
DARK SELBO celebrate their debut with nocturnal, melancholic music between alt-pop, noir jazz and post-rock. Brooding vocals, guitar, baritone guitar and drums move from sparse, intimate passages into darker, expansive arrangements.
CHEEKY, the solo project of New Jersey-born, Berlin-based pianist and electronic producer Kaylee Sabatino, returns with a new set. Bringing together classical piano training and electronic production, she shares the evening with DARK SELBO for a celebration of new beginnings.
DEATH PARTY is an Austin, TX based garage punk trio. Fusing the adenoidal intensity of Jay Reatard with the rhythmic force of The Damned, Death Party expels their own unique wrath of blistering, fuzz-induced rock’n’roll. Frontman Nicky Papaioannou (The Brides) moans reverb laden, infectious melodies over the top of cantankerous buzz-saw powerchords straight from his Gibson Flying V, while drummer Ramon Ortiz (Shark Rider, Petra von Kan’t) echos with razor-sharp intensity behind the kit. Since their formation in 2022, Death Party has established their way in the garage punk circuit joining tours with The Brides (Hozac Records) and Dog Party, as well as securing support slots with Bass Drum of Death, Black Lips, Wavves, Cloud Nothings and more. They have also played festivals and showcases including Goner Records, Hot Luck Fest, Free Week, and Hot Summer Nights.

Proper punk. Not punk as a retro idea, and not some carefully recreated vintage version of it. Just loud, energetic punk with driving drums, plenty of noise and a good deal of energy.
There’s also the British sense of humour, naturally. Johnny Sideways and Dr. Smackpot are not only responsible for the songs, but also rather good entertainers.
They know what to do with a stage and, more importantly, what to do with an audience.
Rat Hole have already made it onto the Empress Ballroom Stage at Rebellion Festival in Blackpool.
This time Berlin. Which seems like a perfectly sensible idea.
aus Ost-Berlin spielen simplen 77-Punk mit Ohrwurmmelodien. Dem Titel der ersten LP entsprechend versuchen NOT THE ONES seit Jahren, mit ihrer Musik schlechte Laune zu verbreiten, doch Publikum & Kritiker sprechen stets von Gute-Laune-Musik. Bei Wanda Records heißt es: „Charmant-britische Guitar Punk-Nummern in Richtung Alternative TV & Adverts, versetzt mit Boys/Lurkers-Melodien.“
IDA THE YOUNG is an indie folk/alt rock band from the Czech Republic. Some time ago our lead singer Iris moved to Pilsen and met our guitarist Marek. They decided to start making music together and were gradually joined by their mutual friends Pavel, Jakub and Filip (aka Slajmr Slajm). We like to play around with different textures and genres, initially leaning into the more folky side of things and eventually starting to explore electricity. Proudly we are part of the Ostrava–based Korobushka Records label.

Indie-Punk aus Köln seit 2002
Punkrock, Pop und kaputte Poesie - fürs 10. Album KÖLN IST KAPUTT tigern die Indie-Punk-
Styler*innen durch die Abgründe ihrer Heimatstadt. Hier finden sie den Rohstoff für ihre
euphorischen Gassenhauer: Wut und Hoffnung, verpackt in krisenkillende Slogans voll
diskursiver Frische.
Robert, Annick und Tscherno nehmen uns mit auf eine hart rockende Revue durch Punk und
PowerPop und Indie. Zitat von Toter Hose Campino: "Hohes Tempo, gewaltige Energie, schöne
Melodien und jede Menge Texte zum Mitsingen."
Freuen wir uns auf begeisternde Bühnenpräsenz voll schrägem Enthusiasmus und schönster
Aggression. Auf dreckige Sex Pistols Gitarren, Slogans voll diskursiver Frische, stampfende
Pogo-Power. Freudestrahlende Gesichter quer durchs Publikum sind garantiert.

knitting is the guitar-driven indie rock band of Mischa Dempsey, Sarah Harris, and Andy Mulcair. Emerging from Montreal’s DIY scene, filtering lyrical introspection through a warping, slacker-rock lens. With their 2024 debut album Some Kind of Heaven (Mint Records), knitting introduced their wiry and careening blend of indie rock evoking the nostalgia of 90s alternative rock bands, earning the band comparisons ranging from DIIV to Hole to Alex G. The release resonated widely, spending five weeks at #1 on the Canadian campus radio charts, garnering press from Pitchfork, The FADER and Stereogum (Bands To Watch, Best New Artists 2024), and taking knitting to festivals like SXSW, and tours across Canada, the US, UK and Europe.

UZIMOTO has been collecting fragments and pieces of audible work for nearly a decade, keeping some of his minimal-pop gems and ideas in his head, while others were sung to himself like mantras or captured on recorders after bike rides across Berlin or quiet climbs up staircases.
Formerly a member of several groups (a.o. EGONX, Tanning Bats, Skeleton Glove), emerging from restless DIY punk circles that never stayed still for long, his roots in that scene gradually coalesced into this boundary-free solo persona.
Uzi’s music is a radiant mixture of post-punk, new wave and dub, blending analog synths and drum machines with tribal percussion and self-recorded sounds. Channeling the spirit of an obscure minimalist striving for immense, illuminating moments, Uzi reveals the contrast between his ruthless hyper-punk nature and a tender, delicate personality.
His compositions are cued on samplers and Casio keyboards at his fingertips. Every song is an honest glimpse into his own world, stitched together and performed as raw as they were originally produced.
2026 marks the release of a long-held creative bottleneck for Uzimoto. This year he unveils his first two singles in his mother tongue — the first glimpse into the world of his upcoming debut album.
Pietro Columbu, born in 1995 and known by his stage name Astore, is a rapper, singer, and writer of lyrics and monologues, as well as a founding member of P38 Gang. In his live shows, he makes a clear distinction between his studio work and his onstage performances, alternating songs with politically charged monologues. His approach is strongly influenced by Gaber's teatro canzone (song theatre), and grew out of his natural tendency to engage in dialogue with the audience during his performances. This approach led to the creation of "Parola!", a live format combining political rap, stand-up comedy, and monologues in a roughly 40-minute performance that evolves from show to show. "Non è un live rap" ("It's Not a Rap Show") is the title of the live series that will take him across Italy and Europe to present ONE STEP FORWARD, his new album produced by Davide Bava. The project builds on the artistic direction established with "Parola!", introducing new monologues and further refining the live performance.

remine sind Kinder der Düsternis und Zerworfenheit der Achtziger und der elektronischen Verspieltheit der Neunziger. Das Duo aus Darmstadt kreiert einen eigenen Voodoo zwischen Noise Pop, Wave, Trip Hop und Post Punk! Live inszeniert aus frickeligen Psychsounds von den unterschiedlichsten Instrumenten. Der Gesang und die Lyrics zelebrieren eine breite Stilvielfalt, die durch zerbrechliche Tiefen und
Erkenntnissgewinn bis hin zu Zerstörung und neuer Hoffnung führen und bewegt sich dabei eigenständig durch Sphären wie Pj Harvey, Beth Gibbons, Lisa Dalbello, Blondie oder DEVO „If you can’t lock it, slam it.“ [remine]
remine betouren nach 20 Jahren Bandgeschichte den release ihres neuen Albums 'Post It'!
