MINAMI DEUTSCH (JPN / Krautrock)

In the organizer's words:

Support: Tchaikovsky & Kann

Minami Deutsch is a krautrock band from Tokyo, Japan. Describing themselves as "repetition freaks", the band draws inspiration from psychedelic rock and minimal techno, but their true passion lies in krautrock - a fact already hinted at in their name, which translates to "southern Germany".

Formed in 2014 by Kyotaro Miula, the band began by performing live on the bustling streets of Tokyo. Since then, they have released three albums through their friend's label Guruguru Brain. Their hypnotic, motorik sound has taken them across Europe and the USA, where they have performed with artists such as Damo Suzuki, the former singer of the legendary krautrock band CAN.

Their third studio album, Fortune Goodies (2022), is a profound exploration of the rich heritage of Krautrock. Drawing on Miula's expanded musical vocabulary following his relocation from Tokyo to Berlin, the album offers a uniquely Japanese perspective on the diversity of Krautrock. In 2024, Minami Deutsch completed two North American tours, including supporting Earthless and at Levitation Festival, further cementing their place as one of the leading voices in modern kraut/psychedelic music.

---

Tschaikowsky & Kann create spherical soundscapes by combining guitar elements with floating drones and synthesizer pads - minimalistic, meditative, concentrated and timeless.
Deeply rooted in the spirit of Popol Vuh, Klaus Schulze, Brian Eno and Robert Fripp, their sound floats through time and space, somewhere between contemplative silence and cosmic expansion.
