Die Krupps - Live 2023 - Support: Minusheart
40 years ago DIE KRUPPS played one of their first concerts at Krefeld’s KuFa and are returning to this venue for this anniversary. For 40 years, the fathers of Industrial Rock have shaped the music scene and inspired many other artists. DIE KRUPPS are currently spending most of their time in the studio producing the new album with Chris Harms (LORD OF THE LOST). For the penultimate concert in 2023, DIE KRUPPS had many songs from the past years in their luggage. DIE KRUPPS had brought along the band MINUSHEART from Aachen/ Germany as the opening act.

On Day 3 of Nocturnal Culture Night 16, we can once again expect some highlights and new discoveries, all under the best festival weather. We’re motivated and on time, with enough time to sit down for a few minutes with a coffee. After all, the last two days have taken quite a toll on us (we’re not in our twenties anymore), and the lack of sleep is starting to show.

2023 is somehow the year of my festival premieres. The 16th NCN is no exception. This rather small festival, which has been inviting attendees to the idyllic Kulturpark Deutzen every first weekend of September since 2007 (the first NCN in 2005 was held in July), is definitely one of my festival-highlights this year.

Future Lied To Us - Support: Desastroes
The beginning of the new concert series “Synthetic X Ascension” at SubKultur Hanover was not under a lucky star. The very first concert of the series had to be postponed in May due to illness of FUTURE LIED TO US singer Damasius “Dama” Venys. After his recovery, I had the pleasure of seeing the trio live on stage multiple times in the meantime. FUTURE LIED TO US (FLTU in short) performed several times at various festivals and as support for SOLAR FAKE.
