AGENDA | Das Kinn blurs the lines and flips the hopscotch between electro raves, art rock and cogito-wobble, kraut rocking away on club DJs and street fights.

For our September Outsiders show we invited Alexandra Gruebler who released two wonderful records on Bureau B under her moniker Baal & Mortimer.
As unbounded as her own music her mix is an embrace of contrast - dubby bass landscapes Celtic moods & delicate encounters for catalytic doom & gloom.

A long-overdue retrospective celebrating Hamburg duo Egoexpress, whose rebellious blend of punk spirit and club energy defied genre conventions. 1995-2005, they forged an offbeat, emotional & rhythm-driven path through Germany's electronic underground, which still pulses with defiant vitality today.

Silberstreif – Ich suche dein Gesicht (1983)
Rather unusual for Sky, the duo played flawless synth-pop with German lyrics. This EP sank into obscurity in the 80s flood of hyper-commercial German New Wave releases. The band later became an insider tip and the EP a sought-after collector’s item.

'As much influenced by the Neue Deutsche Welle as it is Kurt Weill, a welcome smearing together of street walking grime and board treading greasepaint. One for the future, among a roster of time-tested legends.'
