SHE PAST AWAY und AUX ANIMAUX

In the organizer's words:

She Past Away is a dark wave/post-punk duo consisting of Volkan Caner (vocals, guitars and songwriting) and Doruk Ozturkcan (drums, synthesizer and production). Experimenting with the old/new aesthetics of synthesizer music in conjunction with their guitar material, She Past Away have developed a sound, attitude and sensibility conveyed through minimalist poetry sung in Turkish, taking the audience on a dense, continuous, epic journey in both their recordings and live performances.

She Past Away released their critically acclaimed first EP "Kasvetli Kutlama" in 2009. The debut album "Belirdi Gece" from 2012, which contains "Rituel", "Ruh" and "Kasvetli Kutlama", was listed by post-punk.com as one of the best albums of the decade 2010-2019. With the release of the follow-up album "Narin Yalnızlık" in 2015, the duo established themselves as one of the most influential and successful genre-defining acts in dark wave music and scored with numerous crowd-pleasing performances around the world. In 2020, the band celebrated their tenth anniversary with the remix album "X", featuring remixes by Boy Harsher, The Soft Moon, Clan of Xymox, Front 242, Lebanon Hanover and many others. In October 2020, the band's first ever live studio recording entitled "Part Time Punks Session" was released.

She Past Away is a driving, hypnotizing burst of sentimental angst through the nihilistic mind-frame. It's both personal and broad, like a wandering mind bold enough to question taboo and existence.
