Out: album 'Doomed To Death' by Ikarus
Ikarus is still on his dark trip and with his album ‘Doomed To Death’ he delivers 14 phonk songs that you wouldn't listen to in the sunshine.
New signing: Tightill
‘It was and never has been my ambition to become a rapper. I'm not interested in doing just one thing.’ Tightill tries his hand at a wide variety of disciplines. Born in Bremen, he left his hometown early on to lead a ‘freak life’. He lives in Zurich, Barcelona and Berlin, sometimes working on building sites, appearing as a squatter or stripping in a casino. During this nine-year period of experimentation, he discovered music on the side. Too late to look for role models: ‘By then you've outgrown the teenage crushes.’

OUT: album 'Dreamweaver' by Trentemøller
Trentemøller returns with 'Dreamweaver', a 10-song album showcasing his signature blend of dark, atmospheric soundscapes with a psychedelic twist.
Featuring vocals from Disa, the album opens with the haunting 'A Different Light' and drifts through the hypnotic 'Nightfall' before hitting the intense noise rock of 'Behind My Eyes'.
Balancing between serene moments like 'Empty Beaches' and the dynamic 'In A Storm', 'Dreamweaver' is both familiar and fresh, pushing Trentemøller’s sound into new, exciting territory.
The album tour will take Trentemøller and band from the opening show at Hamburg’s spectacular Elbphilharmonie to almost 30 more destinations around Europe.
