Clamm
Hailing from Naarm/Melbourne, the punk trio CLAMM—comprising Jack Summers, Miles Harding, and Stella Rennex—explores the tumultuous experience of youth striving to lead an authentic and principled life in an increasingly chaotic world. Their music confronts the challenges of navigating entrenched systems of power and oppression while striving to preserve mental well-being and a strong sense of self. Through their raw and visceral sound, CLAMM aspires to foster community, ignite creativity, and provide a channel for catharsis

Ceschi
Ceschi Ramos’ music emerged from the worlds of underground hip-hop, hardcore punk, and folk. His approach to songwriting ranges from machine-gun-speed raps to emotive ballads inspired by Latin American troubadours. Over the past decade, he has toured North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. In 2008, he launched his own independent label, Fake Four, and has built a cult following worldwide. Although it’s difficult to describe the type of music Ceschi makes, it’s not hard to feel the fierce passion behind it all.

MPC LAFOTE is the name of the game, and it soars into its niche of hard-hitting pop. Sometimes with live drums, sometimes with the old MPC 1000—and once again, the three devoted Ps emerge: Punk, Pop, Pechno.
Keep getting back up, glance out the window every now and then, and savor what’s left of this frantic world. And so the day comes to a good end, because you’ve discovered something extraordinary—and that rarely happens.

Links
From behind a series of outlandish masked costumes, the anonymous British artist uses humor and sensuality to explore queer pride and queer shame. Drag, music, and theater collide in a daze of queer industrial pop, with the singular aim of bringing joy back to club culture.

HAFENKLANG:

Sexschweiss are unstoppable and, in the year of their debut album GESTANK, are immediately following it up with their second album, DADA.
An actively aggressive approach to everyday fatigue, the hellish abysses of nightlife interspersed with a longing for a spark of hope
outline the key themes of the quartet’s new release.
“Sexschweiss pick me up right where Dÿse left me, and I’d go anywhere with them. The vocals are a performance: Every time Claudia Röhrle starts to sing, a curtain rises—insanely good drums, wickedly clever songwriting—and somehow this band sounds like a punk band that could effortlessly venture into entirely different genres.” Visions Magazine 08/07/25
DADA will be released on 12/18/25 via Schaufel und Besen Records

HAMMERHEAD
HAMMERHEAD have been on the scene since the late ’80s and have developed the astonishing ability to survive all the trends, fads, and periods of rationality in the German punk and hardcore scene. While other bands eventually started setting their sensibilities to music or considering themselves particularly relevant, Hammerhead simply carried on: loud, biting, and with a healthy contempt for anything that smacks of self-improvement.
For decades, the band from the Rhineland has been singing about life’s truly important issues: downfalls, absurdities, the state of Germany, human failings, and the daily struggle against the impositions of reality. With sharp humor, dry cynicism, and an eye for the grotesque, they’ve created songs that are set somewhere between a bar, an angry citizens’ rally, and a psychiatric waiting room.
Anyone looking for a user’s manual for Hammerhead might find it in the words of Tobias Scheiße: “I’m a punk rocker and I throw trash cans…” You’re not going to get much more of a program than that. And while other bands want to embrace their audience, Hammerhead has been shouting a friendly “Die, all of you!” from the edge of the stage for years. In between, there’s still plenty of time for classics like “Ich sauf allein” and other down-to-earth reflections on life.
More than 35 years after their formation, Hammerhead still sound like the musical soundtrack to a night of heavy drinking, where you want to laugh at everything and get worked up about everything at the same time. That’s exactly why they still work today.

Patrick Catani
This article examines the elusive phenomenon of Patrick Catani, a multifaceted creative entity active since the early 1990s, whose work straddles the boundaries of breakbeats, Kindergarten Gabba, 8-bit, and psychoactive chip-hop music.
These are realms in which sound structures and perception shift simultaneously.
Does Cataniensis Patricii elude clear classification because it is an animal—an elephant with a nearly unlimited sample memory, a turtle with stoic evolutionary logic, an armadillo, armored against aesthetic trends? Or does the more accurate description lie in a slime mold-like network, a resilient thistle, or even a geological formation, shaped by decades of pressure, noise, and time? The available observations remain contradictory. Over a period of nearly 35 years, the organism has demonstrated remarkable persistence in its unwavering resolve. Resistance—whether technical, cultural, or economic—is not merely weathered but integrated as formative forces. The resulting soundscape does not adapt but rather structures its environment.
Instead of a clear taxonomic classification, Cataniensis Patricii can be described, for illustrative purposes, as a superposition of several states: high-energy, fragmented electronic rhythms (including breakbeats, rave structures, and their deconstructions); rap as a communicative and social interface; and (on Steam, Nintendo, and PlayStation) a game-based sonic dynamic in which musical processes do not proceed linearly but behave like interactive systems—reactive, modular, and in constant reconfiguration. Early observations in home-computer-based ecosystems (E de Cologne, Flex Busterman, Ec8or) already reveal an extreme condensation of rhythm and material under limited conditions. As the observations continue, the structure differentiates into coexisting forms: productions for and with other artists (including Steve Hive (with Paul PM on Wordsound / Blackhoodz), Puppetmastaz, Xberg Dhirty 6 Cru, and, more recently, the Gubenstreet Boys), works in the fields of sound art and theater music, as well as the Candie Hank complex.
In this phase, Cataniensis reaches a point of maximum deviation: Moog-based soundscapes that oscillate between childlike absurdity and precise synthesis—a state often described as “controlled delirium,” in which melodic fragments circulate like organic particles through an electronic nervous system. The integration into interactive game systems (BattleBlock Theater, Pit People, Alien Hominid Invasion) ultimately marks a transition point at which sound is conceived entirely as a dynamic, playable system.
Current Observation: Convergence Event At present, the system is entering a rare phase of self-superposition: The entire body of work manifests itself in a condensed live performance at Hafenklang, a venue that can itself be described more as an open experimental field than as a clearly definable space. The performance can be interpreted as a superorganism state in which all manifestations are simultaneously active and overlap in real time—not a linear set, but a continuous shift in state between fragment, memory, and mutation.
