LP version. White color vinyl. Berlin-based synth-wave band Dina Summer returns with their highly anticipated second album Girls Gang. Donning a decadent sound described by Resident Advisor as "dark disco meets EBM," Dina Summer is a collaborative project formed of electro-punk band Frittenbude member Kalipo and dark-disco DJ and producer duo Local Suicide. Their previous work includes the critically acclaimed 2022 album Rimini, which offers a nostalgic dive into retro disco vibes, along with the 2021 EP Who Am I and 2024 EP Hide & Seek. They also contributed to Curses' Next Wave Acid Punx compilation, participated in Purple Mag x radiooooo's 2070 project, and performed at Reeperbahn Festival's prestigious "Collide Session." With millions of streams and worldwide radio airplay, Dina Summer's music has been supported by DJs like Charlotte De Witte, The Hacker, Âme, Dixon, Joris Voorn, DJ Hell, Joyce Muniz, and Dubfire. This new album is a versatile collection of 11 tracks that delve into themes such as empowerment ("No More Tears" and "Girls Gang"), outsiderhood ("Alien" and "Zombie"), impermanence ("Promise," featuring Curses and Joshua Murphy), nostalgia ("Halkidiki"), and relationships ("Nothing To Hide" and "Hypnotized"). While their debut album was characterized by its club-centric sound, drawing from Italo disco and '90s electro influences, this new release explores a richer palette of new wave, post-punk, and synth-pop.
