Let’s blog about a blog
So, ph (aka platzhalter) is out. ph is an online fanzine where artists get to talk about artists that inspire them and also where they compile the good events to come. At first glance, because of the personal interests of the initiators, it’s very music-oriented but the goal is to network with enough great people […]

A sunflower’s story

Das Weiße Pferd – OKTOBERFEST
A worm in Pico Be’s ear during a nightly bike ride through Feldmoching. It’s Lou Reed’s Coney Island Baby. Bicycle wheels through empty streets bordered with greenery, cars and Hochhäusern chanting The Glory of Love over and over again.

The Life Post Alien Disko
Something visible, audible, strong and shaking the landscape. A earthquake in Munich. Or a lightning striking the city, maybe. Nope, this was the Alien Kick, and to this much-needed invader, we wish the warmest welcome and hope it will come back soon.
