Three Track Week #16
From circulation and overload to repetition as social condition This week’s Three Track Week 16 selections examine how artists position themselves within systems that rarely pause: touring circuits, digital environments and everyday communication loops. Across punk, garage-driven minimalism and post-punk influenced songwriting, the tracks reflect different forms of continuity under pressure. Rather than sharing a unified sound, they are connected through persistence. Each rel

Artist of the Week: The Moss
This week’s Artist of the Week is The Moss. The band move within a space where freedom becomes form, shaping indie rock around movement, self-definition and the search for a life lived outside fixed expectations. Their music feels rooted in landscape as much as genre. Across "Big Blue Moon", the group channel surf-rock brightness, alternative grit and melodic immediacy into something open and kinetic.

Artist of the Week: CŒUR ACIDE
This weeks Artist of the week is CŒUR ACIDE. The band operate somewhere between club memory and constructed myth, a project that feels less like a band and more like a world in motion. Drawing from italo disco, acid house and late-night pop aesthetics, their sound carries both nostalgia and distortion, as if pulled from a future that never fully arrived. "TOUCH ME (ALL NIGHT LONG)" moves with urgency: rhythmic, seductive, and slightly unreal. It doesn’t settle into one space,

On This Track: Pop-Kultur Berlin Special
Five artists we discovered during our first two days at Pop-Kultur Festival Berlin. Pop-Kultur Festival is the kind of festival where it is difficult to leave with just one impression.
