Band descriptions:
➤ BLAAK HEAT | Los Angeles, USA | Paris, FR
THE PEACE WITHIN. Like an Anatolian fever dream, BLAAK HEAT engulfs your mind in images of mystic castle mirages, slamming body and soul into an ocean of reverb fuzz - drawing from the Middle East as naturally as from California’s deserts and beaches. The end-result is a timeless, vivid and brain-stretching blend of thundering bass-driven Psychedelic Rock with Arabian tonalities and elements of Garage, Lo-fi Surf, 70s Kraut as well as Morricone Classic Western film soundtracks - an altar to heavy riffage, mind expansion, and social insurgencies. Formed in Paris, France by guitarist/singer Thomas Bellier (ex-Spindrift) in 2008 Blaak Heat relocated to Los Angeles in 2012 - and later added former SPINDRIFT bandmate Henry Evans on bass. After extenisve European and American tours, one EP, two LPs and multiple collaborations with the likes of Nobel Prize-nominated Gonzo poet Ron Whitehead, Blaak Heat just released its third full-length 'Shifting Mirrors' - produced by Grammy Award-winner Matt Hyde (Slayer, Monster Magnet, Deftones) on Svart Records and Tee Pee Records. We are glad, after their sets at i.a. Duna Jam and E-lite-culture Festival, to serve you "one of the most exciting Psych bands around" as the New Noise Magazine states.

➤ COSMIC FALL | Berlin, DE
ROAD TO UFA. Whatever fell from the cosmic sky, it landed in our home town Berlin. And is ready to take your mind on a beautiful journey. No matter what, these guys seem legit by just representing themselves in their band description as "A Psychedelic Stoner Rock band from Berlin' - if the country wouldn't have resurrected enough of this kind. Anyway this new trio acts highly professional, even bringing Earthless-level Heavy Psych into the local scene! With that said we highly recommend to listen to their first work 'Cosmic Fall' - taking you into the endless universe, the lonely desert and the depth of the ocean as relaxing sounds and moody melodies will go along with you on this journey. Do you smell it? It's time for another take off!
