Berlin based trio Dina Summer, the new wave/electronic project of duo Local Suicide and Kalipo, returns this summer with their new single ‘Alien’; a tightly spun 80s influenced dance track with otherworldly vibes. The single follows on from their acclaimed 2022 album ‘Rimini’ (Audiolith Records) - a nostalgic journey through retro disco sounds -  2021 EP ‘Who Am I’ and 2024 EP Hide & Seek (Iptamenos Discos), as well as a participation in Curses’ Next Wave Acid Punx Compilation on Eskimo.

With online streams into the millions and airplay across German radio (including a Hot Rotation on Berlin's Radio Eins), Dina Summer’s music has been featured on Spotify and Apple Music editorial playlists and been spun live by DJs such as Charlotte De Witte, The Hacker, Curses, Joris Voorn, Joyce Muniz & Dubfire. Previous releases have been featured in music press including RA, Groove, Kulturnews, Spiegel Online, Musikexpress, Mixmag, Tsugi and FAZE, who declared the group one of the most promising German electronic acts to watch. Their live sets have been equally successful, selling out concert halls all over Europe and performing at international festivals throughout 2023 & 2024.

New single ‘Alien’ sees Dina Summer delve further into minimal wave territory, stripping back a synth-driven dancefloor arrangement to emphasise its pulsating bassline and otherworldly vocals. The track, which draws inspiration from electronic music pioneers such as Kraftwerk, captures a range of retro-futuristic sounds - indicative of the way in which this artist moves flexibly between past and future. Exploring the idea of “other” through an extraterrestrial narrative, the song is a tribute to outsiders and “freaks” and serves as a metaphor for acceptance, openness and communication.

PREMIERE - Dina Summer - Schall & Rauch (Club Version) (Iptamenos Discos)

Rolando Porro @rlaeuchli is based in Zurich, Switzerland. 
In the early 90s he played several locations in Zurich, mostly with vinyls. He is strongly influenced by the New Wave, EBM and Industrial scene from the 80s and Techno scene from the 90s. Although he still loves the classics he prefers to play in his sets current sounds of the Cold Wave, Dark Electro or Dark Disco genre. Rolando Porro likes to visit festivals throughout Europe, like Grauzone, Cold Hearted Festival or Cold Lake Festival for new inspirations. He is part of the pulsating Black Scene in Zurich.

PREMIERE: Dina Summer - Hypnotized (Etane Remix) [ Iptamenos Discos ]

 Release Title: Hypnotized (Etane Remix)
Artist: Dina Summer
Label: Iptamenos Discos
Catalogue No.: IDI022J

Berlin’s genre-blending powerhouse Dina Summer - comprised of Kalipo (also known from electro-punk outfit Frittenbude) and the dark disco duo Local Suicide - unleashed their second full-length album Girls Gang earlier this year via Iptamenos Discos.
Spanning 11 tracks, the record is a bold and versatile exploration of themes like empowerment, outsider identity, impermanence, nostalgia, and human connection. While their debut leaned heavily into club-ready sounds influenced by italo disco and ’90s electro, Girls Gang embraces a broader sonic spectrum, weaving in elements of new wave, post-punk, and synth pop.
Following a string of standout remixes from DJ Hell, Damon Jee, Phunkadelica, and The Populists, the trio returns with another round of reworks by a circle of befriended artists.
Cologne-based musician Etane, known for his unique genre blend and deep involvement in the music community, reinterprets ‘Hypnotized’ by merging 80s Italo disco aesthetics with a driving techno bassline. He pairs a dreamy atmosphere with a luminous sense of motion, guiding listeners toward a glowing horizon. Echoing the song’s core theme, the spell of hypnotization is carried by airy, string-like melodies and a steady, magnetic groove.

Imagine you're at a great techno party and have just heard the last track when the DJ switches on the lights and a murmur spreads through the crowd: It's time for the afterhour!

Welcome to a world where the sun is not the enemy, but a silent witness to sleepless nights and unlimited dance floor adventures

The afterhour is more than just an extension of the night - it is a universe of its own full of quirky, heartfelt and often hilarious moments. It is the place where the music lives on, time stands still and the party community forges its strongest bonds - even if it is sometimes only perceived with half an open eye and a wry smile. 

Over 10 years we host our famous podcast series. Which started as an small idea of some Afterhour nerds developed over the years to something special for us ♥️

In the beginning, we focused on finding and supporting (un)known artists through blog posts, reposts and podcast contributions. Gradually, we expanded our sections to include live recordings and premieres. In-house releases and events were not long in coming. 

Join us and dive into the world of Afterhour Sounds. https://t.me/afterhour_sounds  🌈 🎵 🪩
