LALALAR

In the organizer's words:

süperdisko & popanz present
LALALAR (Istanbul, TR) live in Cologne

Friday, May 29, 2026 - Building 9, Cologne

Some bands grow with every concert. Others leave their mark. Lalalar do both. After two intense, sold-out and sweaty nights in Cologne in 2023 & 2024, we are finally bringing Lalalar back to Cologne in 2026 - with new material, new power and the unbroken urge to break musical boundaries.

The Istanbul natives stand for an uncompromising, dark and highly energetic mix of Anatolian traditions, industrial, post-punk, rave and political urgency. Retro-cinematic basslines meet dirty electronic beats, distorted guitars, broken vocals and samples from Anatolia's cultural memory. The result is not nostalgia - but future nostalgia. In the two new singles, Rumi's 750-year-old verses collide with the reality of today's Istanbul, Black Sea folklore collides with Berlin 4/4 rave, 7/8 grooves tip over into industrial ecstasy. Lalalar call this Horon Rave - we call it: compelling, raw, hypnotic.

Anyone who has experienced Lalalar live knows:
This is not a concert. It's a collective state of emergency.
Political, independent, ironic, loud - and always danceable.
A soundtrack for a world in upheaval, in which rebellion can also be groove.

Don't miss this.
For everyone who already loves Lalalar.
And for all those who don't know it yet.
