It was already foreseeable in 2021 that a new Neue Deutsche Welle would sweep through the country that was more than just a déjà vu of the 80s. Many artists and bands are giving the indulgent disco ball sound of the best decade of all time a makeover, helping post-punk, new wave and synthpop to find a second youth these days.
Temmis have been at the forefront of this revival since their single "Wenn du da bist" from the EP of the same name. The newcomers from Tübingen cross the danceable club sound of yesteryear with modern DIY production possibilities, add dark vocals and technoid arrangements that immediately get you moving and round off the whole thing with clever self-irony.
It works so well and sounds so tightly recorded that it's astonishing how the band can pull off this style stunt almost on the spur of the moment. A fun project that is preparing to give Generation Z a coming-of-age soundtrack. So who knows what else they are capable of live. (Nils Schlechtriemen)
