About the bands:
ARCANE ALLIES (Bielefeld, Echodelic Records / Dirty Filth Records)
Minimalist krautrock trio whose hypnotic sound is continuously evolving: somewhere between spherical, repetitive, and energetic. Their performances are intense, trance-inducing journeys – blending krauty grooves, spaced-out synths, and free improvisation. Over 300 shows between Europe, UK, USA and more, three studio albums and a split release with fellow psych band Kombynat Robotron. In 2026 they’ll celebrate 10 years of endless trips!
> Bandcamp
> Live “State of Hypnosis”
IRA FUNESTA (Berlin)
Post-metal band formed in 2023, their sound lives somewhere between sludge and catharsis, a blend of slow, crushing heaviness and sudden, chaotic outbursts. It’s noisy, melancholic, and raging all at once, creating space for deep introspection between sadness, anger, and ultimate release. Ira Funesta crafts music that feels both visceral and transcendent, a raw emotional journey through light and darkness.
> Demo (Bandcamp)
> Demo (Youtube)
LION’S SKULLS (Berlin)
Drenched in a dark stoner rock atmosphere, their sound slowly unfolds and propels itself forward with powerful doom rhythms. Riff after riff the voice of vocalist Nira haunts you down and serves you the honey coming from the nebular skies!
> Bandcamp
SECTOR 7G (Berlin)
The extra boost of the BLUES BUMPS series! By fusing cutting-edge techniques with vintage-inspired visuals, this visual collective pushes concerts way beyond the boundaries of sound.
DJ SISTER SNAKE
Heavy Psych, Fuzz, Garage, 60s & 70s Bangers on vinyl
