DUCTAPE hails from Istanbul's bustling underground music scene and carries the torch of the groundbreaking post-punk revolution. But they're not just emulating their predecessors, they're pushing the genre forward into unexplored realms. In a world where genres are becoming increasingly blurred, DUCTAPE stand tall, creating a sound that challenges, captivates and resonates. The band is the sound of the beating heart of post-punk, the echo of the melodic discourse of darkwave and the voice of the introspective narratives of goth. With deep, brooding bass lines interweaving with unruly guitar riffs and pathos-laden lyrics, DUCTAPE embodies the essence of post-punk: the raw energy, the rebellious spirit and the relentless desire to experiment. Their music, at once nostalgic and forward-thinking, captures the listener's attention from the first note to the last.
The two members of DUCTAPE, Çagla and Furkan, are united by their shared passion for sound exploration. They form a close-knit unit that thrives on creative synergy. From the haunting vocals that convey raw emotion, to the intricate guitar work that weaves complex webs of sound, to the pulsating bass that anchors their sonic attacks, and the relentless drums that drive the rhythm, all elements intertwine to create a distinctive tapestry of sound. DUCTAPE has played renowned stages and underground venues, thrilling crowds in more than 25 countries with electrifying performances. Their music is like a sonic manifesto that speaks to those who yearn for authenticity and seek solace in the cathartic release of sound. In addition to their powerful live shows, the duo has released influential albums such as "Labirent", "Ruh" and "ECHO DRAMA". These sonic creations embody their evolution as artists and capture the rawness and urgency that defines their post-punk spirit.

Shaped by their musical influences, Holger Meyer and Michael Gronau create a world between Cold Wave, Dark Wave and Post Punk, combined with their very own signature and creativity to bring the inside out. English lyrics combined with spherical, melodic guitars and the singer's distinctive voice create an image of longing, of surrendering and arriving, of being lost and being caught. Arriving is exactly the right keyword. The first CD - LONG FORGOTTEN WORLD - was released in 1996. In 2024, after 14 years, a new longplayer sees the light of day again with SECOND LIFE. 13 songs with a total playing time of 60 minutes cast a spell over the listener and take them on a journey that reflects the soul of the two artists and is perceived as a continuation of the long-forgotten world.
