fluppe (Post-Punk, Indie-Rock)

In the organizer's words:

Dodgers Tour 2026

Flup-pe /Flúppe/ noun, feminine [the]
stands colloquially for cigarette. It is therefore an almost cute-sounding word for a not entirely harmless thing. Here and there, a bad-tempered facial expression is also referred to as a fag. Both descriptions fit the band pretty well. fluppe are the stalk that has no place in your front garden, the bird shit on your Volkswagen. fluppe are a post-punk quartet from the Hanseatic city of Hamburg, who also have a soft spot for pop and shoegaze. Former Intro boss Daniel Koch (Musikexpress, Diffus, among others) writes: "(...) musically, these mangy-poetic post-punk bands like shame, Protomartyr or IDLES come to mind." If you combine this with the attitude and skepticism towards existing conditions that is typical of the Hamburg School, you have roughly the right coordinates. That's all you need.
The flipper is feminine.

TCHAIR

Whether standing 'Naked in front of the mirror' or wishing 'Bon voyage, minimum wage', TCHAIR's songs are always 'In the right place' between love rock and weird folk. As a laconic, warm gesture in connection with human characteristics and places where everyday life, celebrations and dreams happen. Friendships are celebrated in loving lofi melodies and sounds are layered like memories - with a pop-rock lightness whose depth can only be tasted in the echo of sweetness. It's best to just sing along: "I love you all, I'm not ashamed anymore".
In this way, TCHAIR has simply displaced any suspicion and shame towards the German language and - mostly alongside Simon Geuchen (Isolation Berlin, among others) - gets us in the mood for his debut album, which is being created with producer Birk Buttchereyt (CATT, Tiflis Transit, Listen Records, etc.) at Funkhaus Berlin and is planned for 2027.
