DRAMAS have perfected the art of balancing contrasts: the weight of a heavy heart against the inevitability of change, the restless flow of time. Formed in 2016, the boundary-pushing art-pop/electronic duo made an emotional debut with Nothing Is Permanent in 2018. In 2021, they followed up with their self-titled second album, featuring standout singles like "Bloodbath," "Candy," and "Undercover Dreamer," which resonated on over 100 radio stations across Europe. Known for their captivating live performances, DRAMAS have left a mark at numerous festivals and as an electrifying support act on high-profile tours. Their third album, Jewel Drums, is out now — including on limited edition transparent vinyl — and features the acclaimed singles "I Heard It On The Radio" and "Mannequin."

“Laikka's new album is the latest example of the potential of their musical inventiveness. Visionary sonics and dazzling vocals combine in the masterful work, with deft production and powerful narratives flowing throughout the album.” (Wonderland Magazine, UK). As a cross-genre post-pop duo, Laikka love to break with the conventions of contemporary electronic pop music. Their music is a wild, experimental and energetic journey that effortlessly combines catchiness with a touch of pop melancholy. With their third album I close my eyes, tomorrow, Laikka are gaining increasing international attention — including a nomination for the 2025 Amadeus Music Awards. Following the release of two stunning remix EPs, fans can look forward to brand new music this autumn. In the meantime, Laikka can be experienced live at selected festivals — including a performance at this year’s Fusion Festival.

Following the release of his powerful and dark album trilogy Je suis le Ténébreux, Paradise Lost and M, British avant-garde composer Christopher James Chaplin unveiled his latest project in 2021: Patriarchs — a critically acclaimed musical exploration of the antediluvian patriarchs, from Adam to Noah. After three years in the studio, Chaplin presented his latest album Door 1 Door 2 in 2024, which has become one of his most epochal works to date. Once again, he invited versatile guests into the studio and secured the vocal support of Carmen Alt-Chaplin, Tassos Apostolou and soprano Michela Varvaro. It is another captivating and bold work of art that sits somewhere between experimental electronic music and the avant-garde. In summer 2025, Chaplin will bring Door 1 Door 2 and Patriarchs to the stage in a series of exclusive live performances across Italy, Spain, and Sweden — the latter alongside CM von Hauswolff.

With her praised albums "The Soft Bit" (2021) and "What Happens At Night" (2022), sound artist and composer Jana Irmert explored the materiality of sounds. „Irmert’s work swiftly slides from documentary lucidity into the glare of an obsession" (Wire Magazine). Jana Irmert's artistic work takes various forms - from live performances and multi-channel compositions to collaborations with filmmakers and visual artists. In 2019 she received the German Documentary Film Music Award and in 2021 she was nominated for an Edda Award for her sound design for Jóhann Jóhannsson's film "Last and First Men". In October 2024, Jana Irmert released "When I Dissolve", a beautiful new album that collects the compositions Jana Irmert created for an autofictional hybrid documentary. It's also available as a Dolby Atmos version. Jana Irmert live: March 7 at Elevate Festival (A), March 22 at 316 Centro (Mexico City).

The multi-faceted, contemporary British-Swiss violinist and artist Violeta Vicci effortlessly manages the genre shift from classical to ambient music and multi-layered electronics. She collaborated with artists such as Thom Yorke, Elbow or Jonsi (Sigur Ros), arranges the strings for the post-punk shooting stars Fontaines DC and is supporting The Orb on their sold out UK tours. Violeta Vicci's breathtakingly beautiful solo album "Cavaglia" was released last year and is now followed by a couple of remixes - starting with Turze, who has taken on the track "Orbital". "Cavaglia should be listened as a whole rather than in parts and pieces, as it carries a message that cannot be transcribed into sentences and words. It speaks a universal language, a call to action to find our own Cavaglia." (a closer listen).

Italian electronic composer Drum & Lace released her second full-length album ONDA in summer 2024 — a bold, genre-fluid work that has garnered widespread acclaim from critics and listeners alike. Described as having a “chameleon-like nature” (A Closer Listen), her music fuses field recordings, lush synth textures, chamber instrumentation and intricate electronic beats into richly cinematic soundscapes. Influenced by film music, musique concrète and the natural world, ONDA presents a sonic universe both expansive and intimate. Preceded by the singles “Solstice,” “Sisters,” and “Nymph,” the album has been praised as a compelling and confident evolution of Drum & Lace’s unique sound. Watch out for the chance to catch Drum & Lace live in 2025 — an immersive experience that brings the intricate world of ONDA to life on stage.
