Hanno Hinkelbein Unfold LXXV closing set from May 12th 2024
It was wild!

UNFOLD LXXV - Hanno Hinkelbein

Josh Cheon grew up in New Jersey, just outside New York City where he spent his weekends dancing at goth clubs and digging for records. He moved to San Francisco in 2006 and joined gay DJ collective Honey Soundsystem. His love of underground ‘80s music pushed him to start Dark Entries in 2009, a record label specializing in reissuing lost music from that era as well as contemporary bands referencing those analog sounds.

Nico  - All Tomorrow's Parties
Starting off with the saddest piece of music Martin Hannett ever produced and played bass and guitar on? Nico was thick in the throes of despair (basically creating the Goth movement) when she relocated to Manchester in the early eighties.

Russya - Білий сніг
Ukrainian pop goddess with winter tale of sadness "White Snow" about waiting for a lost love to return in the spring. The opening lines translate to, "Between us the wall of separation has grown again, the heart is sad."

Loveshadow - Another Dream
San Francisco DIY pop duo smear the lines between past and present, pop and avant, immanent and transcendent on their their sophomore album 'II'
"closer – not within reach, touching, never feeling, walking all alone again"

Corinne Tell  - Histoire de coeur
French chanteuse sings "Story of the heart" in her darkest Birkin delivery. You want to dance but end up crying. "The thirst to love you is fatal to me, my blood freezes"

Valerie Dore - Get Closer
If there is one song that captures the melancholic mood of the mid-80s this is it!
I picture Valerie sitting on her balcony in Milan singing to the sky, "When the world is running down, get closer."

Chris & Cosey - Silent Cry
"Is it true what they've said about love?" Chris & Cosey's 1987 Animal Liberation Anthem for PETA could also be a funerary love song.

Martin L. Gore - In A Manner Of Speaking
This song has been with me since my teenage years in New Jersey. One of the best covers ever done. Written by Winston Tong of Tuxedomoon, simply the best love song ever.

Brazil - Tvoj Svijet
Croatian synthpop cover of Tears for Fears’ “Mad World”. Originally self-released on cassette in 1990. The eerily faithful production belies Brazil’s re-working of the song’s lyrics about getting lost in an imaginary dream world.

The Cure - A Strange Day
According to Robert Smith this song is about, “how I would feel if it would only be the end of the world.” Easily one of my favorite Cure songs, the drama after the waves crash in and a sudden hush across the water...

Pink Industry - Don't Let Go
Goosebumps from the first drum kick. Downtempo shoegaze from Liverpool 1983 re-recorded in 1987. Pleading never sounded so dreamy.

Escape From N.Y. - Save Our Love
Mournful melodic synthpop / Italo from London, sign me up! If you were to distill the 1980s emotions into one song, this would be it.

Anything Box - Do You Hear Me Anymore?
New Jersey's finest output this song was a b-side from 1989 and captures yearning at its finest. How it just tears at my heartstrings all these years later.
"Every part of me is losing ground."

Xymox - Imagination
Clan of Xymox is arguably the best Darkwave band of all time, and this song has followed me since I was 16 and bought Twist Of Shadows on St Marks Place.
"Every day I've been without you, every shadow follows me."

Hanno became a regular part of Killekill parties, revelling in experimenting and having fun with music. He has since started sublabel Death By Rainbow which showcases darker queer techno with a razor-sharp edge.
After moving to London in 2016 Hanno’s style has benefited from being exposed to the rich and diverse music scene there and he is often seen playing at parties like Inferno and UNFOLD.

Gepflegtes Klopfen series 14 / Hanno Hinkelbein

This is the recording from my set at Parameter 10, Public Works, San Francisco on 17 May 2025. 

The room was comically packed by the time I started (11pm) and the crowd was visibly itching to lift off, but it was so early in the night and the rest of the (stacked) lineup leant so heavily towards UK and bass-heavy music that I decided to leave the dubstep to the professionals, keep it slow and go in the opposite direction: mid 120s, wriggly, psychedelic, gurgly, engrossing, a little weird but also sometimes fun. Maybe on some level I was level preparing myself for Return To The Source in Detroit the following weekend – though ironically I ended up playing much faster and with more broken beats at RTTS than I did here. In any case, I had a blast. Been really enjoying exploring the 120-130 zone recently. Thanks to Nick for having me back, hope you all enjoy the recording.
