Concert: Neoangin

(LoFi/Electro/Pop)

“I’m a Friendly Dog in an Unfriendly World” sings Jim Avignon, aka Neoan- gin, and friendly dogs are urgently needed. The one-man band project has already released countless albums, and live performances are as colorful as Avignon’s pop art. The sound: electropop with influences from the sixties, chanson, new wave, lo-fi, and rap ... There are no limits.

Concert: Grateful Cat

(Indie/Pop/Folk)

The Indie-Pop-Folk duo from Berlin consisting of Gwendolin Tägert and Franky Fuzz dwell in sweet melodies and lots of major chords inspired by the 60s scene of Laurel Canyon and New York’s village. Also a healthy dose of indie 90s and twee-tastic boy-girl harmonies set the scene when Grateful Cat start singing to us, coming straight from their HQ – a cosy kitchen in Berlin-Kreuzberg.

Concert: Diane Electro

(Kitchen Leg Records, Electro/Punk)

“In the neon-lit labyrinth of Berlin’s underground, where synths buzz and punk pulses, Diane Electro emerges as a one-woman tempest. (...) Her debut tape, “Definitiv Jein”, is a 30-minute rollercoaster of electro-punk fervor, oscillating between raw aggression and tender vulnerability.” Vito Camarretta – chaindlk
