Poppy Ackroyd

paints with sounds. Floating like a feather, over paper and piano. Diving into the lights of the dark, with violins and wine glasses. The better half of Frahm, Hauschka and Richter. Or simply a radiant mosaic of these colored worlds.

Federico Albanese

1982
Photo: Dovile Sermokas

owns his musical versatility like a natural gift – one that pushes him to explore music in all its facets. His airy, cinematic compositions blend classical music, electronica and psychedelia. The cumulative effect is a sort of a meditation state – both for the artist and the audience.

Ólafur Arnalds

1986
Photo: Benjamin Hardman

is one of the leading heads and hearts of this gentle sort of revolution some call „neo-classical“. But he refuses to be reduced to that – and to stand still. These days he takes us creatively on a journey of wanting to leave the past behind and to see where else we can go. That’s Arnalds’ philosophy to the core. The idea of his music being a continuum and his desire to strike out for new terrain. Panta rhei. Always. Ground- and heartbreaking at once.

Mario Batkovic

1980
Photo: Hollin Jones

is a slave to the tones. That’s what he said, and that’s what you hear. You can feel it in every note he plays on his accordion. An allegedly old-fashioned instrument, it’s all about here and now when Mario plays: freedom, desire and no borders. That’s how and why he plays. So intense. Like Glass and Vivaldi.

Jean-Michel Blais

1984
Photo: William Arcand

is a pianist, composer and performer. Raised in Québec on the sounds of French pop, Blais encountered classical music out of childlike curiosity. At the age of nine, he first began improvising on the home organ and then took classical piano lessons. But he sensed early on, even before his talent was to blossom into a professional pianist, that the tight corset of classical music did not suit him. He left the Conservatoire de Musique de Trois-Rivières to give room to his creativity and traveled around the world. He learned from and about life in Guatemala, Buenos Aires, Montréal and Berlin, where he also came to know and love the electronic scene. This free spirit can be heard and felt now in his music. Also in the latest release “aubades”, an album in which he has composed pieces for a chamber orchestra for the first time. Bais is one of the most versatile and entertaining of today’s emerging artists.

Ben Lukas Boysen

1981
Photo: Claudia Goedke

(aka Hecq) is a Berlin-based composer known for his work soundtracking films, TV series, games and art installations. His numerous album releases on labels like Erased Tapes, Hymen, and Mesh are a marvelously seductive bouquet of experimental, electronic, ambient and classical influences.

Carlos Cipa

1990
Photo: Juliane Späte

gives his name a radical new radiant. The classically trained pianist, composer and producer breaks with the learned and his past. His third album “Retronyms” merges genres and contradictory: acoustics and electronics, analogue and digital, and boundless improvisation with the art of composition. This is surreally beautiful, highly intense acoustic-electronic chamber music of a personal reinvention. Brilliant.

Catching Flies

1991
Photo: Alexandra Waespi

is a contemporary musician from London who makes catchy yet sophisticated electronica. Multi-instrumentalist, producer and DJ George King seamlessly blends mainstream and underground, electronic and traditional music in his bass-heavy, melodic compositions. His tapestry of brooding electronics and intricate rhythms, with shades of everything from hip-hop to house, soul to jazz, are – simply put – bangers!

( close )

Dobrawa Czocher

1991

speaks without words, as her cello is the voice that touches people. With every note and melody, the young Polish cellist combines her technically perfect proficiency with boundless creative imagination. She loves to constantly expand the spectrum of cello sound, oscillating between classical and contemporary music. Dobrawa has released records on Deutsche Grammophon, toured extensively in Europe, and has collaborated for many years with her close friend, pianist Hania Rani. Both complement each other perfectly as a duo – almost without saying a word, of course.

Tara Nome Doyle

1997
Photo: Luis Anversa

is more than the sum of her parts. Half Norwegian, half Irish, her music was shaped by the colourful Kreuzberg as well as the eerie stillness of Scandinavian forests. A singer/songwriter debut, deep as the ocean – untouched and stirring. Drown with her as she guides you through depths of the unknown.

Eydís Evensen

1994
Photo: Anna-Maggý

is a pianist and composer from the north of Iceland. She discovered her musical passion through the sounds of Led Zeppelin and the compositions of Peter Tchaikovsky in her parents’ home. Today, the driving forces behind her melancholic arrangements lie somewhere between Philip Glass and Thom Yorke. Frostily heart-warming.

( close )

Fejká

1996
Photo: Christoph Hinder

is trying to find that one absolute sound. Floating through dreamlike, mellow soundscapes and soft, airy atmospheres, however frequently delving into a vast range of emotions and approaches for the dancefloor. Memories, moments and inspirations are only the beginning of this cross-genre journey, on which Brian Zajak aka Fejká will find it all. Absolutely.

Masayoshi Fujita

1978
Photo: Patricia Haas

is bringing the vibraphone into the spotlight. Percussive melodies climb from minimalistic ambient-valleys over splendid Steve Reich-hills. Berlin-based composer and vibraphonist takes you to very special heights and places. This is a musical travel guide you can totally trust. No, actually you must!

Get Well Soon

1982
Photo: Clemens Fantur

is Konstantin Gropper. Like a philosopher, he takes his music to a place where Foucault, Wenders and Arcade Fire’s Butler are at odds. Always, to create something unique, like a dramatic pop play, an avant-garde existentialism or a rousing soundtrack for his orchestra of contrasts. Perhaps the most versatile, moving songwriter these days. Definitely, Sinatra would say.

Grandbrothers

1985/ 1986
Photo: Dan Medhurst

are from Düsseldorf. Like Kraftwerk. And they are unafraid of new ideas. Like Kraftwerk. Sounds against all odds. Complex and innovative but at the same time aesthetically catchy. And the source of it all: a prepared piano. Unlike Kraftwerk. But unique as hell.

( close )

José González

1978
Photo: Olle Kirchmeier

is a deep, artful thinker whose singular approach to song writing and sonics sets him worlds apart. José González is in a class by himself. He has a voice. He has a sound. He has a point of view. And altogether, he has a unique and quietly visceral power in his blood and therefore in his music.

Evgeny Grinko

1984
Photo: Svetlana Tosur

a former noise rock musician, embraces the full range of musical serendipity. Humor and sadness are equally represented in his piano compositions, which – despite their sparse instrumentation – have dreamlike cinematic elements: beautiful, stunning, and always on the verge to something serendipitous.

Ruede Hagelstein

1979
Photo: Lisa Wassmann

initially wanted to become a rock star. Fortunately everything came differently. And it’s his home that’s to blame: Berlin. This boundless city, where he juggles with beats and melodies, moods and genres. As a producer, singer-songwriter and DJ, he lends the local dance, techno and electronic scene its international splendour. Thank God he did not become a rock star.

( close )

Hauschka

1966
Photo: Carsten Sander

is Volker Bertelmann, a German pianist and composer – but not an ordinary one. He is known for his signature sound, having objects stick and strap to his prepared piano: acoustic is vibrating, electrifying and blossoming into something yet unheard. Each note becomes a sonic experiment, constantly challenging itself to make the world sound a little different. His performance is always a visually extraordinary soundtrack that connects him with the audience.

( close )

Sven Helbig

1968
Photo: Claudia Weingart

is one of the younger generation of composers for whom the boundaries between the classical orchestra scene, experimental art and pop music have ceased to exist. Folk influenced pieces are set alongside subtle harmonic complexes in the manner of Arvo Pärt and minimalistic drone music. By that, he sends the listener on a poetic journey, a transcendental experience.

( close )

Hidden Orchestra

1981
Photo: Jesse Williams

is an imagined orchestra created by multi-instrumentalist composer/producer Joe Acheson. The releases feature a wide variety of guest musicians from different musical backgrounds, recorded separately, and combined by Acheson in his studio to create an ‘imaginary orchestra’ that doesn’t really exist.

( close )

Nils Hoffmann

1996

is one of the most exciting up-and-coming artists from Berlin’s electronic music scene. As a classically trained pianist, the sound and spirit of Paul Kalkbrenner and Trentemøller have inspired him to produce his very own melodic, deep and progressive house. His tracks have been streamed a zillion times and he has toured the globe extensively – however, this is just the beginning of a great journey.

Sophie Hutchings

1977
Photo: Scott Hutchings

is making music that’s hard to explain. Words just phrase it inadequately. For those who need them: Fragile and romantically gentle, dancing delicately and dreamy. Period. You’d better listen now. “Writing instrumental music is a way of me expressing something that resonates deep within without having to form words. That’s the beauty of instrumental music”, Sophie says. And we dance and dream and fully agree.

Jay Jay Johanson

1969

saw Chet Baker playing live in 1984. „A concert that changed my life“, the Swedish singer-songwriter later said. „At that moment I realized what I wanted to do when I grew up.“ So, to Chet, in part, we owe this versatile, blend of melancholic vocals and tasteful francophile music paintings. Thanks, Mr. Baker!

Kalipo

1984
Photo: Bastian Bochinski

is a prolific producer from Berlin. Whether with his band Frittenbude, in countless artist collaborations or solo, he always delivers one thing: varied electronic beats and soulful melodies. His releases on labels like Ki Records, Audiolith and Get Physical combine house, techno and disco. And it works so well because Kalipo knows where he comes from and where he wants to go.

( close )

Kiasmos

1986/ 1987
Photo: Maximilian König

is a minimal, experimental techno duo. It’s the collaborative electro project of Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen, who have dedicated themselves to exploring the area in-between Ólafur’s more acoustic, piano-based solo work and Janus’ synth-heavy electro pop. Think Faroese-Icelandic planets melting into a new galaxy.

( close )

Malakoff Kowalski

1979
Photo: Julija Goyd

is – as Igor Levit puts it: „Brilliant. Brave, naked, intense, raw. Ultimately, that’s what real art is about: when the artist talks about himself and the listener feels he’s hearing his own story.“ Kowalski makes you fell like home. Somewhere sacred between classical, jazz and theater.

( close )

Kruder & Dorfmeister

1967/68
Photo: Jascha Suess

is Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister. Both started making music together in the early 1990s, toured the globe, released ground-breaking albums and produced iconic remixes for the likes of Madonna and Depeche Mode. No need to say much more about them, since their music still speaks for itself: universal, global, unifying.

Lambert

1982
Photo: Andreas Hornoff

is the pianist behind the Sardinian carnival mask. But what’s behind it? At times he provides solace, at others he strokes the cat we call melancholy. His flair for melodies both big and small is extraordinary. About this he is always open and honest. In every single note he plays, he sounds completely undisguised.

Christian Löffler

1985
Photo: Brian Zajak

’s music is a concentration of essentials. Exploring concepts of emotional sunrise and dawn, getting lost as well as arriving, he blends wistful melodies, driving drum machines and eternal field-recordings into a wandering, euphoric mélange. Sincere and organic, it is also spacious and fantastic. What a wonderful world!

Liam Mour

1990
Photo: Mals Kolumna

is a resident at Funkhaus Berlin. Originally born in the Tien Shan Mountains in Central Asia, the German artist and composer carefully juxtaposes vividly cinematic soundscapes and traditional instrumentation with contemporary electronic soundscapes. His unique sound aesthetics bring visual stories to life — not only in his own projects, but also in his compositions for film and TV (Netflix, HBO, etc.).

Holly North

1996
Photo: Phillip Mall

is from the Baltic Coast and has found his musical home with Christian Löffler’s Ki Records. It’s a perfect fit: Holly blends acoustic and electronic sounds to create nostalgic, melodic tracks. On stage he plays several instruments, guiding his audience through shifting emotional landscapes and nearly forgotten corners of thoughts – full of magnificent colors.

Dustin O’Halloran

1971
Photo: Saga Sig

is like a painter at the piano. Colors blend to new tones, a landscape arises and all is dressed in sound. That’s what synesthesia sounds like – and Dustin knows exactly how colors sound. This may have been something Sofia Coppola has felt, too. Because for her movie “Marie Antoinette” Dustin made his marks as a film composer: by sending moving images on a melodic-hypnotic trip, with a minimal language that everyone understands. Sounds like a beautiful painted picture.

Sofi Paez

1996
Photo: Mariam Woching

is a pianist and singer-songwriter from Costa Rica. In her search for new soundscapes on the piano, she impressively traces the landscape and way of life of her origins. A place to experience a harmonious relationship between breathtaking nature and incredible beauty. This colorful sound will touch your heart and enchant you with every note.

Pantha du Prince

1975
Photo: Frederic Boudin

is back with a new album: “Garden Gaia” is dedicated to the “Man as Nature“-topic in a musically revolutionary as well as philosophically holistic way. Everything flows, everything sounds and shines like contemplative sunbeams in a rushing ocean. His music is about mindfulness, awareness and sensitive perception towards what is happening around us and within ourselves. Hendrik Weber aka Pantha du Prince has poured these experiences into nine new tracks and expanded his musical palette of electroacoustic expression in a highly collaborative creative process. „Garden Gaia“ adds a new, forward-looking perspective to Pantha du Prince’s work, which began in 2004 with „Diamond Daze“, his first album and found his way with the critical acclaimed masterpiece „Black Noise“ and his first collaborative album „The Bell Laboratory“.

Sofiane Pamart

1990
Photo: Romain Garcin

is a French pianist – but a truly unique one. A classically trained, excellent piano player with the image of a luxury pampered rapper. He combines elegance, fashion, classicism and the codes of the street. It is almost as if Chopin, Cartier and Kayne were working together. One of a kind!

Parra for Cuva

1991
Photo: Max Hartmann

is Nicolas Janco. He mixes sounds like colors to a meandering painting. Circles forming, surfaces expanding, details becoming clearer and brighter. Everything floats, everything moves between relaxation and departure, between contemplative magnitude and a breathtaking piece of art. Loops without words, and beyond transience.

Natascha Polké

1994

is one of the most exciting up-and-coming live electronic artists and DJ globally. Rising from Switzerland’s vibrant techno underground culture, she playfully and vigorous weaves the seemingly unusual into sublime, sophisticated melancholic productions. Transcending stylistic boundaries in an inimitable way: this is unique, stunning and thrilling at once.

Hania Rani

1990

creates space and time, wherever she may roam. There, between Berlin and Warsaw, it flows and drips, marches and meanders. Steady, restless, full of grandeur. In calm and storm, ups and downs, contemplation and euphoria. Her gorgeous debut has been recorded in Iceland and Poland and will be released in early 2019.

Janus Rasmussen

1987
Photo: Eydís María Ólafsdóttir

is known as half of Faroese-Icelandic duo Kiasmos. But now it’s time for his first solo venture: “Vín” is a colorful debut that takes the listener into a universe of a special kind. Vibrating sound worlds in which Rasmussen gives space to his instincts: raw and fragile, beautiful and blooming. New dimensions of experimental minimal techno are illuminated here. Discovered and introduced by Janus Rasmussen. Intoxicating.

Raster

1996
Photo: Camil Scorteanu

is more than just a label. Founded in Chemnitz, Germany in 1996 it all startet with releasing groundbreaking electronic music. However, there was even more. In addition to music that has influenced succeeding generations of artists, raster has always provided an experimental playground for sound, art and design. An independent artistic platform for audio-visual performances, publications and installations. Now, for its 25th anniversary, Raster is initiating several events, showcasing the broad spectrum of artists that have contributed to the label to date: concerts and club nights in several cities, incorporating installation works, workshops and lectures. Against all odds, like in 1996, because Raster is still even more: it’s art that you can hear, feel and touch.

Saphileaum

is the multimedia artist Andro Gogibedashvili. As the grandson of a famous Georgian national singer, he grew up in a very musical, creative family. His own sound is so cosmic, spherical and visionary that some excerpts of it have been sent into space. Light years away, yet so close.

Shida Shahabi

1989
Photo: Märta Thisner

is a composer, pianist and artistic transformer. Each note hits you hard, full of contemplation and care. Sending you into a trance with its softness and feeling of coming home. Until the inner peace meets the dark echo of an impending storm and underlying sense of doom. You’re woken up at a different time, as a different person.

( close )

Stimming

1983
Photo: Harun Hazar & Anna Chocholi

never uses the same sample twice. The young artist from Hamburg rather samples coffee machines or children’s toys and tweaks them afterwards, to make them sound utterly unique. Cause as an evolving artist, you should not repeat yourself, not one of your sounds at all. So, when you don’t know what exactly you will get next – you do know, it’s Stimming. You’ll feel it.

( close )

Alexandra Streliski

1985
Photo: Raphael Ouellet

is a true rarity in modern classical music. Not only because she is a woman – no, also because her music is so extraordinarily touching. She sounds and shines like gently falling snow, like foggy morning dew, like an endless dance in the sunset. Fleet-footed she enters melodious fields full of melancholy and hope. The Montreal-based pianist has drawn inspiration from Chopin and Schumann as well as Hans Zimmer and Philip Glass, making her “one of the foremost new stars of modern classical,” as Billboard calls her. Give her your ear, she will capture your heart.

is a Danish duo that weaves keys and drums into a repetitive tapestry of sound. A flow like a gentle stream that mixes soft wurlitzer whispers with rhythmic impulses. A landscape that sets an ocean of captivating melodies in motion. So beautiful.

Thylacine

1992
Photo: Cecile Chabert

is the experimental mind William Rezé. A French multi-instrumentalist and producer known for his exciting electronica sound. His work is characterized by his devotion to freedom, adventure and traveling. Inseparable as yin and yang, exploring new countries, territories and cultures is part of his varied creativity. Against stagnation and repetition, Thylacine seeks the constant expansion of his musical horizon on numerous journeys. The good thing about it: There his always something new to discover and to listen to. His current album “Timeless” combines the actually untouchable repertoires of Mozart, Beethoven or Satie with the infectious sounds of Moderat, Kalkbrenner or Four Tet. A pretty wild ride? Well, dare to take off with Thylacine!

Teodor Wolgers

1993
Photo: Pontus Norberg

is a young Swedish composer and musician. His melodies accompany film sequences in an almost imperceptibly overwhelming way – his fragile songs set abysses and vistas to music in an almost orchestral, painterly still life. Sensitive music of weighty thoughts that elude comprehension. For moments of contemplation, of looking up and moving forward.

is Armenian and chose Berlin out of passion. Rooted in the traditional music of her country, she mixes techno, electronic and ethnic sounds to create captivating tracks. With every beat, she embodies the universal power of music, to make the lighter side of human emotions dance.

is a project from bassist Milo Fitzpatrick (Portico Quartet) featuring saxophonist Jordan Smart (Mammal Hands). Influenced by Swedish folk and Indian classical music, these exceptional artists create an intimate soundscape. Recorded in a church, their music transports listeners to a world of minimalist melodies and evocative narratives that enchant and defy time.

You may exercise this right with a supervisory authority in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement.
7.8 Prohibition of automated decision-making / profiling (Article 22 of the GDPR)
Decisions which produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you must not be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling. We hereby inform you that we use no automated decision-making, including profiling, in view of your personal data.
7.9 Right to object (Article 21 of the GDPR)
When we process personal data concerning you on the basis of Article 6(1) point f) of the GDPR (for the purposes of the legitimate interests), you have the right to object under the grounds set out in Article 21 of the GDPR. This, however, shall apply only on grounds relating to your particular situation. After your objection, we will no longer process your personal data, unless we are able to demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms. We also do not need to stop the processing, if it serves for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. In each case – even regardless of a special situation – you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing, at any time.
