K17, Berlin, Germany19th March 2010
Moshpit 2010 - Crack O Dawn
I’m a little late with my review but I hope you are clement with me and you can trust in my memory decline. In addition I hope the upcoming show dates will disarm you… The BERLIN MOSHPIT at the K17 is a monthly date for metal fans. The K17 provided the possibility for newcomer bands to perform for a bigger audience, in that case for BALCANIUM, I CAN’T SWIM, KULTASIIPI and CRACK O DAWN. Some information about the bands you can find at our preview. Today I would like to write about one of these bands which impressed me the most: CRACK O DAWN from Berlin.

Ringlokschuppen, Bielefeld, Germany16th May 2010
Schiller
German musician Christopher van Deylen gave life to the project SCHILLER over a decade ago with his companion Mirko von Schlieffen as a club-oriented music project. But already with the second album ‘Zeitgeist’, the music veered more towards softer territory, emphasizing dense melodies and ambient textures. Even before the album ‘Leben’ came out in 2003, Mirko left the project, shrinking SCHILLER to a one man project with that. However, van Deylen’s creativity was big enough for two, even 3 persons. Ever since doing it alone he released three further successful albums with ‘Atemlos’ from 2010 being the latest one in the line. SCHILLER live is Christopher van Deylen (synths, keys), Christian Kretschmar (synths, keys), Ralf Gustke (acoustic drums), Cliff Hewitt (electronic drums), Andreas Binder (guitar), Tissy Thiers (bass), Anggun (vocals), Kim Sanders (vocals) and Kate Havnevik (vocals). http://www.atemlos.tv/ / http://www.myspace.com/schillermusic

Grand Avenue, Alpha Academy
We decided at short notice to attend this show and at least for me it was a step onto new grounds as I've never seen GRAND AVENUE or their support ALPHA ACADEMY ever before. But I would get to know them...

Essigfabrik, Cologne, Germany11th May 2010
De/Vision, Tenek, X-Divide
The show two days ago would have fit much better distance-wise, but well, I was not in the country and so, the only chance to see DE/VISION on their current tour was this show in Cologne. And the show was well worth the long ride with its traffic jams…

Spindler & Klatt, Berlin, Germany5th May 2010
Indica - Showcase 2010
Today’s INDICA showcase event was aligned for around 300 invited journalists to promote their new album ‘A Way Away’. The location Spindler & Klatt is a club directly at the Spree River for dinners and events or to book it as location, very stylish and modern with long white drapes, light installations and big, comfy settee. Outside, you can find a terrace with white painted planks. You can sit there in summer but at this evening all furniture was removed. It was comparatively windy and cold. Even better inside!
