Go to your record shelf and pick out that quirky (and unforgettable!) folklore vinyl you once found on a fleamarket somewhere on your travels. And now imagine that sound being complemented by vintage synthesizers, flutes, twangy surf guitars, a hell lot of space echo ... & electronic downtempo beats!
Takeshi's Cashew (Laut & Luise, Berlin) are a newly formed psych-funk group that explore the boundaries of club culture, world music & 70's psychedelia. All coming from different musical directions, they create a colorful fusion of their respective genres embedded in a club-like beat framework and elevate their often complex arrangements to a beautiful & danceable potpourri.
During summer 2020 Takeshi's Cashew recorded their debut album "Humans In A Pool" in their tiny diy-studio in Vienna. This self produced record will take you on a journey into cosmic krautrock, cumbia, afrobeat & disco, which can only be surpassed by one of their live performances...

Potato Beach
Founded in 2020, Potato Beach is a psych and garage influenced band from Vienna. Anja, Peter, Sven, Lili and Jannik try to make everything sound like the 60s, even though they live in 2021. Because they are not cool enough to move to L.A., they are trying to bring the seductive sound of bands such as The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Allah Las and La Luz to Austria. If you love nodding your head at concerts, you may like Potato Beach and their catchy tunes. If youre more into other things, you may like them as well. Potato Beach will play all the hits of their upcoming EP Run which will be released sometime in the near future.
