Line-up:

This week with an Embassy of Music takeover:

Fritz Speck

One of the most exciting new voices in German indie pop can currently be found on a farm in the Altmark (Saxony-Anhalt): Fritz Speck. The young musician combines his voluminous, sometimes raspy-rough baritone, which you simply can't get enough of, with an incredible sensitivity for the emotional depth of the songs. In his music, he takes us into his world, in mostly slightly melancholy, yet rousing and sometimes tongue-in-cheek electronic-acoustic indie pop songs, he tells of being lost, self-discovery, longing, saying goodbye and drifting.

FINJA

grew up on the border, where she developed her unmistakable style and made her fiery red hair her trademark. As a child, she learned to play the violin and sing. At the age of fifteen, Finja played the leading role in the musical "Max und die wilden Kerle". This was followed by participation in various choirs, in particular the award-winning Aachen choir FLOW. The likeable 21-year-old Missfit, whose first, childish involvement with songwriting was writing down LaFee song lyrics while listening to their CDs, has been releasing her first own music as a solo artist under the name FINJA since 2023, in addition to her membership in three bands.

Chris de Sarandy

Growing up in the southwest of England, Chris de Sarandy started playing in an indie band at the age of 14. Shortly before starting his studies, the band broke up and the desire for a more "natural and mature" sound led Chris to write music himself. In his adopted home of Berlin, he met producers and other musicians and was discovered by the Embassy of Music label, which recognized his artistic potential and signed him. On 'Know Your Worth', he presented ten electro-acoustic indie pop songs in his direct, conversational style that he has written over the last four years - a real coming-of-age EP.

SIND

The Berlin indie rock trio SIND (aka Hannes Husten, Mathias Völzke and Ludwig Noack) have recorded a new album; the fourth in the band's eleven-year history. Erstmal für immer' sounds deliberately poppier, bigger and fuller than all three of its predecessors. However, the record still has the SIND-esque indie charm of earlier days - because the band has allowed itself to play even more freely than it already does. You can feel that every instrumental track on the new album wants to tell a story; that there are always at least ten sound elements bubbling, stumbling, creeping, wafting, shimmering, blowing, pulsating at the same time - even if only very quietly in the background. In 2023, SIND sound more multi-faceted, indeed more anti-stringent than ever - without losing credibility or stringency of content.
