After two excellent LPs, ISOLATIONSGEMEINSCHAFT from Berlin are hitting it big on their third album START. STOP. ZURÜCK. Deadpan observations of life under too-late capitalism are set to pulsating, bubbling analogue synth tracks – sometimes elegiac, often danceable, occasionally sliding into EBM («Schwelle») or even Italo («Zufall») territory, at other times intercut by sharp krautfunk guitars («Funklöcher»). START. STOP. ZURÜCK. is as sparse as it is varied, steeped in early continental electronic post punk but never falling into the retro trap. This is maximum minimal wave forged in the crucible of D.I.Y. punk and hardcore, and it shows. Guaranteed to haunt dancefloors from your grubby squat basements to your glam goth discos for years to come.  Tomi / Plague Pits

OSTBAHNHOF; Based in Berlin and active since 2023, this minimal synth wave trio conjures an eerie magic through hypnotic analog textures and stark, pulsating rhythms. Driving synth melodies and basslines, that shift between darkness and vibrancy, powerful beats and danceable structures define their distinctive sound.   In 2024 Pumpkin Records from UK released their very first Single as 7″ vinyl EP. (Sold out).  Same year the Band published their first-ever music video “Neukölln träumt“.  Ostbahnhof’s self-titled debut album was released digitally in February 2025 by Danse Macabre Records.  In September 2025 the US Label Castra Records released a K7 special US Edition. One month later the Band released their Album as well on tape for their european audience. Vinyl release of Ostbahnhof self titled album coming out end of April 2026, marking an important milestone in their artistic journey.  To celebrate the release, the band will embark on a Croatian/ Serbian tour, presenting the album and new material live and connecting with audiences across the country. The tour not only introduces the album to the stage but also reflects the band’s growing presence on the international scene.

CUT MANNERS, Garagepunk aus Linz. Die gruseligen Gitarrenklänge und finsteren Synth- Melodien rufen kalten Schweiß und Gänsehaut hervor. Mit ihrer bevorstehenden EP „POISON” bringen Cut Manners ihren DIY- Spirit auf Tape und lassen alte Kassettenrekorder in Flammen aufgehen.
