Puppetmastaz

The world’s one and only puppet rap band is back in 2023.
Puppetmastaz are coming with a new smash album and a brand new live spectacle. They are the world’s first “Toyband” and are known as a mix of the Wu Tang Clan and The Muppet Show.
„Welcome to the Zoo“ is their 8th album and it is as exciting and delicious as its name. It is all about evil villains, Magic Ravioli, a daring heist , candys, visions and wild animals.
And this is the insanity they bring to the stage: various crazy flows, just as distinctive as the characters in the PM Crew. These creatures take the humans on a fantastic journey and will rock you out of your sneakers.

- History -
Nearly 20 years ago, in the swamp of Berlin, Creatures from various origins formed the mighty PUPPETMASTAZ.
PM have worked with humans like Chilly Gonzales, Illvibe, Les Peuples de L’herbe, Modeselektor, Smokey Joe and the Kid, Mouse on Mars, Hippocampe Fou, Soom T, Schlachthof Bronx and many others.
After various smash hits like "Puppetmad", „Pet Sound" or "Bigger the Better", they managed to grow and stay independent in this music industry environment. With „SWEET SUGAR RUSH“ they serve an album that delivers an up2date Sound with the usual puppet madness.
Their unique live show has been featured at festivals like Roskilde (DK), Solidays (FR), Festineuch (CH), Dour (B), Kubana (RU), Sonar (ESP), Pukkelpop (B), Garorock (FR), Lollapalooza and Fusion (GER), to name a few.
This time they are bringing an even stronger show to delight ears & eyes to Europe’s stages.
Their brilliant mix of delicious puppetry, odd humor and hardcore Hip Hop present a lasting but crazy experience live or on tape.

Mark Reeder

Mark Reeder is a musician and record producer from Manchester living in Berlin since 1978.

In Manchester through his unique position at Virgin Records, he was integral for the fledgling punk scene there and was involved in presenting new bands such as The Buzzcocks, V2, Joy Division, The Drones, Slaughter and the Dogs to a new and young clientele.

After his arrival in Berlin in 1978, he was designated the German representative for his friend’s band Joy Division and later, he became the man in Berlin, for their legendary Manchester record label Factory Records.

In 1981, he formed “Die Unbekannten” (The Unknown) and they released two EPs on Berlin’s first independent avant-garde label, Monogam Records (released: Einstuerzende Neubauten, Mania D, P1/E etc.).

After the fall of the Berlin wall, he founded the first East German electronic music label MFS (Masterminded For Success) which he started in December 1990. MFS helped to launch the careers of many, now famous artists and DJs, such as Ellen Allien, Cosmic Baby (Harald Bluechel), Dr Motte, Effective Force (Johnny Klimek), or Mijk van Dijk.

Reeder is also an established remixer himself and has meanwhile produced numerous remixes for such established artists as New Order, Depeche Mode, The Pet Shop Boys, Yello, John Foxx, Anne Clark, or Die Toten Hosen as well as for a ton of new and lesser-known artists.

Today, he is not only a highly sought-after producer, DJ and remixer, but also as a lecturer or speaker, due to his valuable first-hand experience as a record producer and label manager and his understanding of the Berlin music scene in both East and West Berlin during the 1980s and 90s, continuing up to the present day.

Unkenny Valleys is the Noise Pop / Electronica solo project of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kenneth Estrada y Santiago. Working in Berlin, Germany, Unkenny Valleys makes music inspired by childhood nightmares and sci-fi soundtracks ranging from Godzilla to Blade Runner that combines blissfully fuzzed-out guitar noise with modern EDM elements. He calls it “cybergaze” and the name fits. Between the years 2019 and 2021 Kenneth has released an EP called “Rocket Fuzz” and four Unkenny Valleys singles: “Spring”, “Happy Happy”, “She Saves Me Again” and “Oneironaut”. Songs that demonstrate the unique ideas he brings into the studio and his talent for balancing melody and grit. A full-length album that deals with love, suicidal thoughts, nightmares and daydreams of freedom is slated for 2021.

Jim Avignon

Jim Avignon - a pocketful of rainbows

Jim Avignon’s new show, is a musical excursion in the land of eccentric.
Jim will explain the mystery of eccentric behavior and has songs and paintings prepared to tell about the magic and tragic life of famous eccentrics like Oscar Wilde, Howard Hughes or Gertrude Stein but also some not so well known fellows, like the richest woman in the world, the emperor of the Unites States or Elsa, the dada princess. The show is named after a beautiful Elvis song, a genuine eccentric himself.


(DE)
A pocketful of rainbows - auf den Spuren berühmter Exzentriker

Jim Avignon, Maler und Musiker lädt zu einer langen Nacht der Exzentrik. im Format eines “bunten” Abends, der gutgelaunt zwischen Konzert, Happening und Rauminstallation mäandert, soll dem exzentrischen Wesen und seinen Protagonisten hinterhergespürt werden.

Leben und Wirken einiger herausragender Exzentriker wird in Wort und Lied beschrieben und besungen, berühmte Exzentriker winken als Portraits von den Wänden, ein heiteres Ratequiz rundet die lange Nacht der Exzentrik ab. Außerdem bekommt jeder Besucher eine bemalte Pappkrawatte umgehängt und wird gebeten diese den Abend über anzubehalten.

Das Wort Exzentrik entstammt dem Altgriechischen und bedeutet so viel wie außerhalb der Mitte stehend, wobei man sich nie ganz darüber einig war, was eigentlich als Mitte betrachtet werden kann.

Ein Exzentriker ist, so Wikipedia, eine Person, die deutlich von der sozialen Norm abweicht.

Der/die Exzentriker gilt als nonkonformistisch, kreativ, idealistisch mit dem Anspruch die Welt zu verbessern und betreibt beglückt ein oder mehrere Steckenpferde (was auch immer darunter zu verstehen ist). Immer noch wird darüber gerätselt, was es ist, dass das exzentrische Verhalten begünstigt - zeitweise stand sogar die gute alte Milz (engl. spleen) im Verdacht eine exzentrische Neigung auszulösen. Exzentriker haben zu allen Zeiten fasziniert Indem sie stellvertretend unsere Wünsche und Sehnsüchte ausleben, erinnern sie uns daran wieviel Freiheit wir unnötigerweise verschenken.

Ann Weller (Ann & Bones)

As a kid, Ann Weller loved to set fairy tales to music on the piano. Today the berlin-based singer of the band Ann & Bones is writing film scores and songs that turn the melancholic vibe of the metropole into dark and mysterious music. Ann’s performance is uncompromisingly deep and comes along with a serene power of carrying emotions with her distinctive warm and vulnerable voice, blending dark minimal sounds with classical piano. Musical influences range from folk and chamber pop to wave with an aura of Robert Smith, Nina Simone, Cat Power and James Blake.

Kitty Solaris

Kitty Solaris is cool and direct, soft, sincere, underground and disco. And yes, all of it. She knows the best roads through the city and through its people. She started writing songs in her kitchen leading to no less than six albums – the latest released in 2019. Kitty Solaris follows her heroes – Velvet Underground, Cat Power, and Patti Smith – but in a way that is all her own, combining various styles and both analogue and electronic sounds. Her music rings out to disco beats of the 70’s, keys from the 80’s, and rock vibrations from the 90’s. Which means that the music has its very own kind of singer-songwriter style to it. Kitty Solaris’s voice is soft but with a strong core that leads listeners straight to her verbal everyday pictures. She’s offering a universe to move to and move through with existential themes and feelings we can all relate to. Kitty Solaris releases her music on her own do-it-yourself-label founded in 2007, Solaris Empire, and is because of that not only a very active musician but also the boss of a cool cult label. When she released the album My Home Is My Disco in 2009, Gordon Raphael, producer of The Strokes, supported her on several recordings. Her music reaches out far beyond the borders of Germany and she’s been on tour through Europe several times.

Kitty Solaris "Sunglasses" (Solaris Empire/Broken Silence) VÖ: 18.9.2020

Nach dem hoch gelobten live eingespielten Band Album "Cold City" wird am 18.9.2020 das elektronische Album "Sunglasses" erscheinen. Titel gebendes Stück vom „Sunglasses“ Album ist eine Coverversion von Corey Harts „Sunglasses at Night“. Die Sonnenbrille. Synonym für Anonymität, Schutz, Existentialismus. Sommer, Sonne, Strand und das Bedürfnis, inkognito zu bleiben.
Bei „Sunglasses“ geht es darum, immer wieder verschiedene Möglichkeiten auszuloten und sich spielerisch neu zu erfinden. Das Album ist ein Befreiungsschlag vom Bandkorsett und funktioniert auf der Bühne genauso wie auf dem Dancefloor. Die Recordings sind in gemeinsamer Arbeitsweise mit dem australischen Produzenten Damian Press entstanden und erschaffen einen neuen Sound Richtung Wave, Electronica und Dance. Kitty Solaris zum Album: „Ich wollte in erster Linie eine Platte machen, die Spaß macht – einfach machen, worauf man Lust hat und sich selbst und alles andere nicht zu erst nehmen. Es geht um Unabhängigkeit und darum, genau das zu machen, was man machen will. Unabhängig von den Gegebenheiten seinen Visionen zu folgen.“
Herausgekommen ist ein hypnotisches Sommeralbum im Spielfeld zwischen Indie-Experiment, Dorf-Disco und Synth-Pop.

"Mit „Supermoon“ präsentiert die Berliner Indie-Ikone schillernden Pop mit 80er-Wave-Vibe und lässigem Elektro-Groove" Popmonitor.de

"Perennial GTC favorite, Berlin’s Kitty Solaris has just dropped this Summer’s dark pop staple, “Supermoon”. Set in a tone that could be described as a combination of Kate Nash and Siouxsie Sioux, this low slung track’s slow-burn drive is mesmerizing and instantly addictive. A self introspective tale that’ll fuel many late-night meanderings." Global Texan Chronicles

In Frack und Zylinder und mit Clark-Gable-Schnurrbart kommt er daher und mit seiner tiefen Schmirgelstimme untermalt von einer melancholischen Orgel oder einer niedlichen Ukulele vertont er mehr-und-weniger berühmte Stücke von bspw. Hildegard Knef oder Gilbert Becaud. Auf deutsch, englisch und manchmal französisch besingt er die dunkle Seite der Liebe (oder des Lebens oder auch des Wetters) mit herzzerreißender Tragik(omik) und zieht damit Junge und Alte aus allen Schichten und Schubladen von egal woher in seinen Bann.

(EN) Need an expert for lovers grief? Then call Señor Depressivo.

Dressed in top hat and tails with a Clark-Gable-moustache, he sings in german, english and french about the dark side of love (or life or weather) in a heart-wrenching tragic(omic) way, mesmerising both - the young and the old of all layers and drawers from no matter where.

Der deutsche Schauspieler-Regisseur Godehard Giese und der italienische Musikerproduzent Marco Brosolo treffen sich in Berlin und bilden 2016 die Gruppe. Zusammen produzieren sie die 12 Tracks des ersten Albums "Concezione", das von Giese geschrieben und von Brosolo arrangiert wurde.

Die Liebe zur italienischen Musik wurde in Giese dank Donna Elvira und einem gewissen Latin Lover geboren. Studieren Sie deutsche und italienische Literatur in Berlin, bevor Sie sich an der Akademie einschreiben, um Schauspieler zu werden. Von diesem Moment an gab er sein Darlehen unter anderem an Wim Wenders, Tom Tykwer und Gore Verbinski.

Brosolo studiert Malerei in Venedig und hat immer das Lied der Ringo-Trommeln und die Instinkte des Morricone-Arrangements erforscht. Lernen Sie die Klangtechnik in Koper. Dann wurde er vom Instinkt nach Berlin katapultiert und lebt in einer Blase.

Paranoia Godards Musik ist wie ein Film, der in einem leeren Raum gedreht wird, in dem die Blätter zu einer Winterlandschaft werden. Es ist Kammermusik im Gesichtsfeld. Es ist wie eine Oper, die gleichzeitig intim und erbärmlich ist. Es ist balsamische Paranoia.


Wir freuen uns sehr, die beiden Künstler und ihre Musik kennen zu lernen.
Seid dabei und findet heraus, wie sich die beiden in der SHOXXXBOXXX zurecht finden!

/////////////// MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST ///////////////

PC Nackt is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, producer and musical archivist based in Berlin, Germany.

Born in 1975, Patrick Christensen founded and fronted the electronic group Warren Suicide, emerging to scene-setting success out of Berlin’s healthy squat scene in the early noughties. Blending avant-garde, punk and pop aesthetics, Warren Suicide rendered Christensen a recognisable face across multiple scene, as well as instantly establishing his versatility as a producer. Prior to his fruitful career as PC Nackt, the success of the band allowed Christensen, driven and inspired by a sense of community, to establish the blueprint that has seen him evolve as one of the most dynamic producers in the contemporary landscape of electronic music.

Plunderphonia is a new series of musical projects that create original music by “plundering” unexpected historical sources such as seminal classical piano and chamber orchestra scores. Developed by !K7 founder Horst Weidenmüller, the debut Plunderphonia album has been recorded by Grammy nominated artist PC Nackt - collaborator with Apparat and José González and creative head of The String Theory and Warren Suicide.

////////////////// WORDS FROM THE ARTIST /////////////////////

Welcome to the NEOANGIN VIRTUAL EXTRAVAGANZA.
SHOXXXBOXXX LIVE DREAM präsentiert „ Jim in der Kiste“.
Die bildende Künstlerin Shou und der Erfinder Johannes Marx präsentieren mit SHOXXXBOXXX LIVE DREAM ein ausgeklügeltes neues livekonzept, das Schluss macht mit den relativ eintönigen Präsentationen , die es in lockdownzeiten öfters mal zu sehen gab. Bei SHOXXXBOXXX LIVE DREAM spielen die Bands in einem speziell dafür gebauten Würfel, auf dessen Wände projiziert werden kann, die Shows werden mit mehreren Kameras gefilmt, man hat als Zuschauer das Gefühl mittendrin im Geschehen zu sein.

Neoangin freut sich, daß er mit seiner online show als erstes die neue Wunderkiste „SHOXXXBOXXX LIVE DREAM„ ausprobieren darf. Die SHOXXXBOXXX Macher Shou aka SHOXXX und Johannes Marx sind selbst Musiker ( Shou spielt bei Puppe'n Mucke, Johannes bei Pitchtuner, MARX, Kohle) und sie wissen wie wichtig es für die meisten Musiker ist, ab und zu eine Show geben zu können, die sich auch wirklich wie eine anfühlt. Geplant ist daß in SHOXXXBOXXX LIVE DREAM alle 2 Wochen Liveshows stattfinden werden - gut möglich, daß die beiden ab und zu auch als Überraschungsgäste mit von der Partie sind.

Neoangin freut sich sehr auf diesen Abend und verspricht mit einem Schwung brandneuer Bühnenbilder und Masken anzurücken. Schaut rein leute!

Auf welchem kanal wir das livestreamen werden wir noch ausbaldowern. - ihr werdet es auf jeden fall als erstes erfahren…
