Discography
Releases
Neon Collapse
Album · 2026
The album draws inspiration from the strange, euphoric atmosphere that followed the fall of the Berlin Wall in the late 1980s. It was a time filled with naïve optimism, cultural upheaval and the belief that a completely new world was about to begin. But history rarely moves in straight lines.
NEON COLLAPSE reflects what remains when those early hopes slowly erode. The album inhabits the emotional landscape of a world where certainty has dissolved: isolation in the digital age, fractured identities, fading ideals and the quiet sense that something essential has been lost along the way.
"Driving basslines, shimmering guitars, analogue synths and a vocal delivery that moves between vulnerability and cold intensity."

Kinski's
Dead
EMILY KINSKI'S DEAD was born out of a fondness for post-punk and new wave from the early 80s, combined with contemporary electronics.
The Swiss/German post-punk band was founded in 2021 by members of NINE SECONDS, they released multiple CDs together and started making music in the 90s with NO COMMENT and SLEEPWALK.
Visual storytelling is a central part of the band's artistic identity. Their cinematic music videos have received international recognition and nominations at festivals including the Japan Music Indie Awards, The Festival of Cinema New York, Tokyo Shortfest, and the London and Los Angeles Lift-Off Film Festival.
