Das bisschen Totschlag's new LP 0dB Headroom drifts through a cathartic kind of vulnerability -- telling stories of losing, larking, and feeling everything all at once. Its soundscape echoes the act of remembering: manipulated samples and floating guitars bent through distorted electronics embody memory not as a fixed archive, but as something alive: tender, fractured, shifting. Moments come back in flashes -- sometimes radiant, sometimes aching, always familiar, yet blurred and distorted. A beautiful mess that you can't ever fully capture. FFO: Alex G, Wednesday, Maria Somerville.

Surrounded by the DIY-scene around their own self-founded recording label new basement, plainhead tries to introduce an ethos uncommon to the local music landscape in their hometown Munich and interacts between the boundaries of experimental rock and pop. You Are More Than A Thousand Words is a romantic gesture dedicated to the stars, a subtle mix of chamber pop, experimental acoustic indie and '00s indietronics. plainhead is the project by Tianping Christoph Xiao, who founded new basement together with his friends trying to build a sustainable music scene in Munich. Today on a monthly basis, a wide international spectrum of music is being introduced via new basement. plainhead has played alongside artists such as Quade, Contacto and other contemporary artists interested in the acoustic post-rock idealism -- a similar breeze as Bristol's '90s/'00s community scene surrounding Movietone, Crescent and other musical idealists. FFO: Phil Elverum, The Notwist, The American Analog Set.
