Leere Menge is a Berlin-based darkwave duo consisting of Aarnav Bos (Permanent Daylight) and Deborah Morgenstern (Clichée). A project initiated to explore improvisation and the combination of both artists‘ fortes, Leere Menge were quickly sharing Deborah’s deeply emotional vocals and Aarnav’s darkwave guitar cuts across concerts in Berlin. September 2025, they released their first EP „To Be Anymore“, sharing their essence with the international community: lush soundscapes, provocative percussion and ethereal vocals. After an EP and several successful concerts in Berlin, they are now ready for new stages.Their performance is captivating and deeply emotional, ranging from danceable to dreamlike, inviting the listener for a novel experience.

Vivid Vision is a post-punk duo. Raw, hypnotic, strange, and off-kilter.
The band features Raoul on guitar and vocals and Mathieu on synthesizers, bass, and drum machines. Their collaboration has shaped the project’s sonic identity: a post-punk energy with noise-rock influences that drifts toward the experimental. Their universe blurs the boundaries of reality, like a lucid, hallucinatory dream that pulls us into the rhythmic chaos of party and dance.

Singer/guitarist Jeremy Marquez (Brooklyn) and bassist Ben Griffin (Philadelphia) formed the project after connecting through a network of friends. The duo bonded over a shared admiration for contemporaries such as Preoccupations, Ought, and Protomartyr, classic groups like The Fall and Joy Division, and popular local acts Gustaf, BODEGA, and B Boys. They honed a driving, high-energy punk sound and became notable for their infectious live performances. With their latest EP Cause// Effect released in 2025 they’ve introduced a new phase- leaning towards a heavier sound and sentimental lyricism and aim to push further with a new full length album early 2027. With songs that attempt to speak about the chaos, uncertainty, and anxiety of our current moment, Pamphlets position themselves as an unabashedly political call to action.

Billy Zach; A Post Punk project from Hamburg: Noisy Riffs, reverbish rooms, crushing Drums, pumping bass and some nagging grumbling. A hint of melancholy. Billy Zach is guitar music; angry and loud, sometimes melodious, sometimes oppressive. Billy Zach can be described as the rough sandpaper of the wholesale market named pop music – picturing the smoothing and exhausting character of their songs. Indeed, contradictions are more often wanted than feared; no matter if musical counterpoints or lyrical Paradoxes. Billy Zach sets light into dark, whispers too loud and laughs with tearful eyes. Their music represents how connected and simultaneously torn apart moments can be, without a raised forefinger.

VYLLA – is a genre-fluid electronic trio from Hanover, Germany which has been founded in April 2022.  A blend of Neo-Soul, Hip Hop, Electronic Music, Art Pop and Jazz creates a special and hypnotizing atmosphere at their concerts. Creating new sounds, mixing genres, breaking boundaries, using lots of effects, composing with the imagination of having a whole orchestra and catapulting the audience into ecstasy. Their compositions make up an urban, extravagant style and transport yourself to the rooms of a dark, dancey disco. Spheric synthesizer sounds broken by Drum ’n‘ Bass Grooves, which are supported by strong basslines. The instrumental foundation is underpinned by political and honest lyrics, but also vulnerable and mystical vocal lines that take the audience into various circles of thoughts and moods. Through the use of effects, listeners are opened up to an experimental, abstract world in which they have not been immersed before.

In one of the forgotten experiments of the 1950s, scientists bombarded plants with radiation to force new mutations, an unpredictable process known as Atomic Gardening. Most attempts failed. But every once in a while a desirable variation could be cultivated further. In the same vein, Atomic Fruit’s music is always mutating, evolving. With members from Sweden, France and Italy, the group formed in 2021 after a serendipitous meeting at a SUUNS concert. With their first show only two weeks later, the band quickly became a fixture of the Berlin underground scene with their genre defying, high intensity live sets. Atomic Fruit combines dreamy psychedelic rock with electronic beats and exploratory songwriting. Drawing on analog synthesizers and guitar pedal tap dancing, their sound takes inspiration from trip hop, jungle, and electronica.

The four-piece Berlin Dream Pop band Carolina Lee uses a minimalist approach to arrange the slow, melancholic songs of singer Nadja. The result is reminiscent of female singer-songwriters of the 70s, psychedelic folk and 90s dreampop with reduced compositions of guitar, bass, drums and keys. Quiet, dreamy and hypnotic, the music creates an untertow that draws you into a time loop oscillating between the past and the present. The debut album ‚Haunted Houses‘ was released in December 2021. The second album, ‚It’s Still Now‘ was released in November 2024.

King Dick is the project of Antwerp based musician Wim De Busser. In 2015, the artist decided it was time to write his own songs. De Busser assumed the role of his alter-ego, King Dick, and within a year, he finished his first album: New King Dick. The album has 10 songs, all written, performed, recorded and mixed by De Busser himself. On top of that, he launched his own music label: King Dick Records.

King Dick’s music has been described as lo-fi psych-pop, gothic folk or oompah trash-pop, but in the end, King Dick refuses to be pigeonholed into one musical genre. His music is simply too varied, multi-faceted and agile. With each song, the listener is confronted with a universe of unfamiliar sounds, vibrations and energies. At the same time, however, the songs are still undeniably poppy in nature. But it is as if all poppy elements have been smothered in a thick, greasy psychedelic sauce. A spoonful of mustard right in your face, followed by the most appetizing delicacies.
(Farid Zahnoun, Jezus Factory Records)

AUGELECTRIK bringt mit deutschen Texten, Beats und Synthietönen seine Songs über die uns real erscheinende Welt komplett Fremden nahe.  Sein Kauz-Pop bewegt sich zwischen altmodischem Elektrotainment, elektronischen Störungen aus verschiedenen Jahrzehnten mit Punk-Attitüde. Dazu spielt er live am liebsten Sythesizer ohne Tasten.
