Hollywood hates Weird: The Strange Normalization of Abstract Stories

Within Hollywood`s large roster of stories, one noticeable trend is the insistence to make fantastical stories "normal" and less removed from our own world.

A quick chat with The DeadNotes

„But Jakob and I had so much time to just work on new music together like crazy, and we found this idea of not only having a switch, which is musical, because the songs had gone in a completely different direction up to that point, but we also found it very exciting to perform as a duo. Something you don't really know in the rock scene and we thought it would be really exciting to do it like a pop band and to have the opportunity to get as many live musicians on board as possible, to make the whole thing as big as possible and therefore have far fewer limitations."

Superbloom Festival Munich

Ever since its creation in 2022, the organizers of Superbloom seemed to have an easy time getting big names to perform in the city of Beer and Brezeln. The lineup for the 2022 edition featured a wild mix of popstars like David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Jason Derulo, Years & Years, Rita Ora, and Stromae next to rappers such as Skepta, Megan Thee Stallion and Saint Jhn and German fan favorites AnnenMayKantereit, BHZ, Schmyt and 01099. These trends from 2022s booking carried over into 2023, with Imagine Dragons, Martin Garrix, and Ava Max filling the slots for pop, Kontra K, Aitch, and Ski Aggu holding down the Hip Hop side of things while Peter Fox, Trettmann and Jeremias would make sure German artists would not go underrepresented. While both iterations were generally well-liked, some visitors would complain about poor organization and high prices.

Behind the Barricades: Experiencing the Heroes Festival Freiburg Like a Fan, Not Like a Journalist.

01099, Trettmann, Shirin David and more... I was a little late for a review pass for the Heroes Festival this year, but anyone who knows me knows how obsessed I am with this small German indie band called 01099. So, when I heard that the Heroes Festival was returning to Freiburg for the third time in as many years, with 01099 as one of the headliners, I knew exactly where I'd be: Right behind the barricade.
