🎛️ Kalipo – "Any Compromises"
Out April 30 via Iptamenos Discos.

When he's not touring with electro-punk legends Frittenbude or lighting up the dark disco scene with Dina Summer, Berlin-based producer Kalipo focuses on his solo work.

His new single "Any Compromises" picks up where his last EP Seeking Angels and his collaboration with Local Suicide left off — merging indie and electronic into a driving disco-punk sound rooted in krautrock and techno.

At its core: Kalipo’s warm, laid-back vocals, reflecting on letting go of old patterns and the uncompromising pursuit of happiness — even if it means leaving everything behind.

Echoes of the 2000s indie-techno era run deep here, channeling the spirit of what we now call Indie Sleaze.

Kalipo - Any Compromises

My set at Kater last friday was a loooot of fun! A bit dirty, a bit WTF, full of energy, travelling around different parts of the world, and taking some unexpected turns along the way (isn’t it what life is all about ?). 
Most of all, it’s been a rolling rollercoaster from start to finish, and it’s now here for you to enjoy <3

Here's the recording of my set at Sisyphos on July 6. It was a very nice sunday with a lovely weather and I was closing the Strand stage outside from 7 til 10 PM. 
We had a very good time all together <3

Crimson Rain

Crimson Rain (Club Version)

With “Linger”, Oberst & Buchner teamed up once again with vocalist mimu to present a slow-burning electronic track built around warm textures, subtle rhythms, and a sense of stillness. It’s a song about taking time — to pause, to stay, to reflect.

Berlin-based DJ and producer Sarah Wild delivers a driving House remix, adding energy and dancefloor tension while keeping the emotional core of the original intact.

The release blends introspection and movement — designed for both quiet moments and late-night sets.

Local Suicide and Wiener Planquadrat share more than just a musical wavelength - theirs is a long-standing creative friendship, built over countless nights, shared stages, and a deep mutual understanding of the darker corners of electronic music. Having already released two collaborative tracks, “Flashdance” & “Light It Up”, and worked together on remixes for artists such as You Man, Ali X, AFFKT, Nuclear Digital Transistor and Idoru, the duo now presents their new single '“Der Apfel Fällt Nicht Weit Vom Stamm” on Iptamenos Discos showcasing their evolving sound.

The song was written in 2024 in Local Suicide’s Berlin studio and went through countless revisions in studios across both Berlin and Vienna until it reached its state of perfection. The single stands out as one of the most accessible tracks this collaboration has produced so far: a leftfield pop song that unfolds like a slow-moving fog creeping through a late-night club: mechanical yet sensual, minimal yet immersive. It drifts somewhere between dark disco and synth pop, steering clear of typical dancefloor formulas in favor of something more hypnotic, more internal. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree – and that tree is rooted in a shared history between two acts who’ve spent years honing their sound on parallel trajectories.

Local Suicide are recognized as one of the most influential duos in the dark electronic underground scene. Since 2008, the Greek-German pair have shaped the sound of dark disco, EBM, post-punk and indie dance through countless releases on cult labels like Bordello A Parigi, Lumière Noire, TAU, Eskimo Recordings, and Ombra INTL. Their work has been featured in DJ Mag, Mixmag, Der Spiegel, Rolling Stone and Tsugi, and they even appeared – as themselves – in the German TV show Fett & Fett on national broadcaster ZDF.

Wiener Planquadrat, the Vienna-based duo of Michael Weiler and Maximilian Atteneder, made their mark in 2021 with “Stillstand”, a breakout debut that climbed the dance charts in Austria and Germany. Their 2022 EP “Dschungel”, featuring remixes by T.Raumschmiere and Tech Support, blended analog grit with indie-rave melancholy, signaling their refusal to play by genre rules. In recent years, they’ve performed live in Berlin, Paris, and Thessaloniki, released remixes for artists like Oberst & Buchner, Dina Summer, Kalipo, and more.

The fact that Wiener Planquadrat were the very first artists to ever release on Iptamenos Discos – with their hit “Stillstand” in 2021 – makes this release feel like a full-circle moment. “Der Apfel Fällt Nicht Weit Vom Stamm” isn’t just another single. It’s a subtle reminder of how powerful a connection can be when it’s built not on strategy, but on trust, friendship and shared experience.
