innen: welt. 2025

In the organizer's words:

We don't know about you, but... To start THIS new year, THIS can't hurt, we think: Great, hand-picked music by people for people, a whole Kafe Kult to make you feel good, with a homemade glitter frame and a party.

So: a new inside: welt. with seven bands, freshly discovered adventures from loop, post-rock, alt-folk wonders, post-punk, electronic creaking (from Reykjavik to Plzen to Munich) and unfrightening drink prices. Come on in!

𝐁𝐒Í (𝐑𝐞𝐲𝐤𝐣𝐚𝐯í𝐤 / 𝐃𝐈𝐘-𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐞-𝐒𝐲𝐧𝐭𝐡)
How we love to put these guests at the top of the line-up! Sigurlaug Thorarensen and Julius Pollux Rothlaender have a glam and glimmering indie frame, a few new instruments learned for their music, a lot of musical joy for you and themselves - and such a wonderful message from every line and chord: It's anything but easy in our late capitalist times. But they can still do it (play the foot organ. Or make their own voice audible). And so can we all. "Some sweet songs against bad stuff", says the singing drummer Sigurlaug in BSÍ's KEXP session. "Quite mindblowing" says the most-liked comment underneath. We join in.

𝐈𝐝𝐚 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 (𝐏𝐥𝐳𝐞𝐧 / 𝐀𝐥𝐭-𝐅𝐨𝐥𝐤)
Sorry, but: boom. Close your eyes and listen to this YouTube session. Pay attention to the powerful, somewhat laconic female voice, to the rhythm changes, to the nimbly alternating chapters of the songs, to the lead guitar that jumps out of the open field onto the road and accompanies the ride, to the piano as a glittering stream of sound. Doesn't this have to be the latest alt-folk wonder from the USA? Maybe it should be. But it's Ida The Young from the Czech Republic. Maybe we can help make Ida The Young the latest alt-folk wonder of Central Europe. Anyone who puts so much creativity and love into their songs deserves it.

𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐡𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐡𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝐌ü𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐧 / 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭-𝐏𝐮𝐧𝐤)
Another open word from behind the scenes: innen.aussen.raum likes New Basement! Someone urgently needs to get hold of the city's stages. And of course we know Prohibition Prohibition. If you do too, you know it's going to be a lush, semi-dark, post-punky delight. If not: pushing clear bass lines, pulling shimmering guitars, a deep voice narrating. That's how post-punk works - and Prohibition Prohibition, as a well-oiled and loudly pounding live machine and with a few creative twists, easily add enough sugar to entrust themselves to the late night sound tunnel without hesitation.

𝗔 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗳 (𝗡ü𝗿𝗻𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗴 / 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗥𝗼𝗰𝗸)
Honestly: The search for the band for the "post-rock slot" of the innen: welt. sometimes gives you gray hair. Difficult, difficult. And then the redeeming find even comes from Bavaria: A Prouder Grief (with their masks) are a bit of a mystery. But above all, a musical rollercoaster ride with confetti cannons and mischievously yawning abysses, with cheerfully sawing guitars and breaks that suddenly jump into the picture - without any genre-typical clichés. So no fiddling on the high E-string and loud-quiet-loud-quiet-l... - but real, picture-painting joy on guitar, bass, keys and drums. We like that.

𝐒𝐮 𝐘𝐨𝐧𝐨 (𝐌ü𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐧 / 𝐀𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭-𝐅𝐨𝐥𝐤)
A band against emotional numbness: Su Yono gently graze tidal ranges, high alpine snowboards and suburban puddles churned up by the rain. Everything that fades but does not fade. A relaxed feel for noise and sound (as a unit of time and close-up), for melodies (that don't squeeze into the limelight), for drums as a stumbling heartbeat and for lyrics as lyrical subtitles for a daily POV movie. So in a nutshell: Slowmotion folk for summer evening twilights or snowmelt mornings. Whatever you feel. And from Munich. Great.

𝐁𝐨𝐛𝐨_𝐏𝐊 (𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐮 / 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐞)
Does the whole dance come from the Gameboy? It does. Bobo_PK from the distant Rhineland-Palatinate is an expert in chiptune sounds. This may sound nerdy, but it certainly is - but at the end of a long day at the festival, you'll feel a synthesis of the noise of the 90s and the electronic party of the 20s that will ease your mind and feet. There's something for everyone. And it's also a small, nerdy, trancy spectacle to watch. Stay for another round and enjoy - Monday is just Monday again.

𝗕𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗮𝘂 (𝗠ü𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗻 / 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗽)
The first café slot of the inside: welt. is the moment to hold on to bottles and glasses, follow the flying dots of light from the disco ball and quietly taste the first musical stories of the evening. Bateau is the right person to serve them up: An electric guitar, a looping device, a trumpet - and the patience needed to weave seconds into wreaths and layer them up to under the freezing January cloud cover. You'll have all the peace and quiet in the world to enjoy for just under 40 minutes. That Bateau is building this musical tower for you.

This year's after-show party will be hosted by 𝐍𝐢𝐥𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐝𝐚 (All My Ghosts, Leipzig) and 𝐍𝐚𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 (innen.aussen.raum/Little Odessa, Munich)
