Heavenphetamine (Georgia/Ukraine)

Heavenphetamine is a Japanese krautrock/postpunk duo composed of Hiroki (keyboard/vocals) and Sara (drums/vocals), sometimes supported by flautist Kira Krempova. Described as a blend of Krautrock and Post-Punk, their musicality strongly reflects the influence of Western indie music. Simultaneously, the underlying Japanese melodies, beats, and Japanese lyrics contribute to crafting an exceptionally exotic sonic landscape.

Neuköllner Speed Dating Club (Leipzig)

NSDC started as a solo project based around samplers, drum machines, synthesizers and keyboards, but now performs with a constantly changing line-up of various instruments. The drones, kraut-like repetition and bouncy electronic drums mixed with motorik sampled kits creates a hypnotic and psychedelic feel, mixed with a pinch of things like dub, noise and pop.

Luna Vega (Leipzig)

Luna Vega’s first studio efforts involved just a preset drum machine accompanied by an old Vermona organ, often nodding to the 70s proto-electronic pioneers. Since then, the project has evolved into a three-piece live band driven by repetitive drum machine patterns, multi-layered organs, wonky syntheziers, and 90’s psychedelic revival guitars. Spaced-out nostalgia-powered grooves for the heads of the 2020’s.
