Forthcoming single from the imminent debut cassette from Brabrabra.

Brabrabra are a mysterious girl band based in Berlin. They play so-called universal pop while being proudly bespectacled.



Brabrabra - Glass Grave

"Cupid Operations" is the debut tape of the Berlin girl group Halfsilks, As a result of an intense year of song writing, the albums depict the band's sonic and lyrical landscape, with nine synth-driven, angular pop songs about horses, outdated technologies and female role-models.
Naming as influence 60s girl group and the best post punk, Halfsilks deliver a very personal, catchy sound that is essentially all and none of it, with songs full of taste and true charm.

Brabrabra-Sorel

Rediscovering the pleasure of writing songs using her old 4-Track tape recorder, the artist named herself SuperCheri used it as a way to put some sense and logic in the whole non sense of 2020-2022, mixing her love for funk, with her everlasting surf guitar style, new wave vocals, lyrics about anarchism, scientific method and serial monogamy and a touch of exotica. One day she decide that maybe all this should see the light of the day, so here's "Featurette".

B2 SuperCheri I'm Not

Twenty-two citrus fruits. A chain letter in Danish. A livestreamed funeral. With ultra-specific details and flashes of deadpan humor, Matching Outfits relates tales of dissolving friendships, lost loved ones and insurmountable distances - between childhood and adulthood, summer and winter, Germany and rural Sweden.

released September 21, 2022

At the heart of Matching Outfits is singer and keyboardist Linnea Mårtensson (formerly of duo Featherweights), who merges wistful indie pop with a playful DIY ethos that's further brought to the fore by bandmates Rachel Glassberg (drums/guitar) and Leah Corper (bass). Call-and-response vocals that convene into three-part harmonies, shout-along choruses, saxophone breakouts: whether on album or in their live shows, you never really know what to expect.

Band Made Out of Sand

It Keeps Happening

Matching Outfits - It Keeps Happening

Goat-fish visions, dystopian bliss, post-punk roots and new age shoots combine to shape the microuniverse of Ultrabonus, a band (un)known for their fast and short tunes with lyrics in Spanish and involuntary low profile. Based around Argentinian Ignatz B’s quick-fire songwriting, the group is completed by Michael (guitar/bass), Leah (bass/synth) and Edu (drums), of Berlin’s forever-mutating indie scene. After five EPs and a row of high energy shows in the memorable summer of 2022, Ultrabonus forge ahead, careful not to step on their own heels.

Recorded in November 2020, “El Gimnasio en Casa” was the first work of Ultrabonus as a band. This double EP, is now released on tape by Kitchen Leg Records, offers subliminal clues about how to stay in some kind of shape for those without the need or desire to.

Pieuvre is a trio started magically by coincidences, missing connection and a bit of luck by members of Brabrabra, the Shna, and King Kuiper.
Once Pia, Lina and Fege met, they fused their influences patching together raw-no wavey guitar, and punk-funk like rhythm session and well crafetd vocal melodies.
"Hyperstretch" is their debut tape, contains six catchy post-punk hymns in three languages, playful, dance-able, very feminist and mostly quite impertinent.

Recorded at end of 2022, “Verschlucht dich nicht” Vorsicht Kinder
debut tape feel extremely fresh and playful, musically close to
Neue Deutsche Welle and post-punk. In the best tradition of shepunks, VK just propose their song their own way, with fun yet a
lot of self-consciousness.

Do you remember alcopops - those nasty and cheap alcoholic mixed drinks from your youth that gave you your first high? That’s what the music of VORSICHT KINDER sounds like and that’s how they claim their own music genre: the alcopop.
VORSICHT KINDER are four friends from Berlin who took four years to record their first tape (too many alcopops? no, attitude!). Their music is characterised by unusual languages, instrument swapping and obligatory cigarette breaks.

Five years after their debut tape "Fairytape" (also on Kitchen Leg records) is time for the new, awaited music output from the Berlin/Dresden duo The Shna. The title is "Ciao Ciao" and the songs are again excellent! This time the focus on their music is more of weird pop and electronics, but still organic, vibrant and unique as before.

About the Shna: Double-voice meets Drums (Alam Weber) and Bass (Lina Walde). Sounds like Grunge, Indie, Pop, Riot Grrl and some own inventions. 7/8 meet 4/4 beats and Gertrude Stein-poetry neo-collages.

Recorded by Micheal Alcala and Omri Gondor (also behind Halfsilks'debut album)and mastered by Brain Pyle (behind many Klr releases, Adrie, Brabrabra, The Shna, Pieuvre, Matchinh Outfits to name a few...), the follow to „El Gymnasio en Casa“ is a powerful, uncompromising album of great punk, always hovening between psychedelia, surf, noise, pop. Once again, absolutely smooth and mouthful, and yet absolutely thrilling and energetic. This album capture also well their rousing live shows.

"I'll Show You! I'll Show All of You!" is the latest music output of multi-faced artist Forrest McCuller, under the moniker of Xacklebox. "I'll Show You! I'll Show All of You!" is a beautiful evocative tape, with eerie melodies in between psychedelic folk and avant, combining home-made electronics, guitars and singing for a highly poetic and powerful album.

Xacklebox (pronounced tæk.əl ˌbɑːks) is a songwriting, recording, storytelling project by Forrest McCuller. He has performed as an experimental musician and conceptual artist for the last two decades. He also makes films. Most Xacklebox songs tell or imply some kind of story about a character that is not the author. Ensembles of musicians come together to interpret the songs live, notably including Miho Shimomura.

Six years after their "Lagoona" single, and only one year after the American label Absolute Kosher republished their first two works on vinyl (as "Mangooona"), the world is ready for *eleven* new Brabrabra tunes!

Those who have followed the Berlin-trio since the beginning already know how the three Bs can easily switch from pop to punk, from ballads to dance, from bossa to baroque rock without compromising their own brand of "universal pop" one inch.

"Danger! Danger! Danger!" is a new chapter. More complex and articulate, their songwriting has become more ambitious, yet keeps all the catchiness and freshness of their very first works.
This album is another journey into their own unique world, where they sing about the joy of dancing, of meeting someone special, or letting go of someone special, the melancholy of watching the peach tree bloom and fade. 

Danger! Danger! Danger!

After several cd-r releases (all called best of!) “Geese my eyes” it’s Mumbles’ first tape, and released on May 24th in XB Liebig.
Mumbles cooked for a while these songs, a toothy mix of pop appetite, punk ardor and genuine auditory weirdness. Their music it is just surprising, as it is clever, sometimes sweet and melanchonic, and sometimes pretty rough and punk-at-heart. 

Mumbles - Jadda Jadda

Only two years after their electrifying debut "Verschluck dich nicht" that we had the honor to put out on tape in 2023, Vorsicht Kinder are back with their second album Their new songs are a bomb: playful, catchy, direct and feisty, between the most anarchic site of post-punk and dada pop deconstruction. Together with that, some new layer showed up, a techno anthem ("Alcohole", also with a very cool videoclip) and some longer, melancholic psyche tunes that are as well crafted as the fast-paced ones.

Kitchen Leg Records presents “Mangold” - Compilation (various artists)

For the occasion of Cassette Store day 2015, Kitchen Leg Records presents the double cassette compilation “Mangold!”. 
“Mangold!” features 18 different artists from Berlin and beyond covering songs from Brabrabra's debut cassette  “Mango”, which was also Kitchen Leg's first release back in December 2013. 
Despite their minimal and often lo-fi sound and attitude, Brabrabra made true pop music, and played very catchy songs, winning over audiences in Berlin and even found their way into Everett True's column.
After Berlin based band Classic Muscle began covering some of Brabrabra's songs live we jokingly came up with the idea of making a tribute album. However after mentioning the idea out loud we realized that it seemed to attract quite a bit of interest from musician friends and bands we know and the joke slowly became an emerging reality. 
In fact the response was so enthusiastic that we ended up with roughly 3 times the amount of songs than the original album contained.
“Mangold!” is an eclectic mix of pop/electro/home recorded/folk-blues and other genuine oddities.
Participating artists include Skiing, The History of Colour TV, Delmore FX and Razor Cunts to name just a few. 
The cover itself is a photo of the original “Mango”' cover artwork as a work in progress. It is symbolic  of the way we work and how we view our label as something we build upon day to day. To quote Bruce Lee, like the water that erodes the rock! 
The album will be available on www.kitchenlegrecords.bandcamp.com on Oct 17.

BRIE is a Dresden-based band that was formed late 2013, and although not everybody was there all the time, they never split for real.
Their music recalls No Wave, but the one from bands you never heard about. Their songs are sometimes noisy, sometimes quiet, and somehow never happy. (but who really knows whats that all about).
BRIE is Nancy, Andi, Anne-Sophie.

After their first EP "Chickmeat", "Nature's Pocket" is Razor Cunts' new album. Iconoclastic, dissonant and yet very pop, Razor Cunts' songs put together feminist anthems with a dark cabaretesque humor using as main instruments two surprising, beautiful, dreamy but also abrasive cellos. Bloody. 

Razor Cunts are a two-piece riot grrl punk band, starring Ambika Thompson (cello, drums, vocals) and Jane Flett (cello, tambourine, vocals). 

Recipe: Add The Raincoats, Lydia Lunch, Miranda July, Bikini Kill, Yoko Ono, X Ray Spex, ESG and Mary Poppins and mix in a blender for roughly 25-30 years. Then spice with cellos and stripes and dirty words and drums and distortion and love. 

Voila! You’ve been Razor Cunted.
