Berlin-based indie/electro-wave trio Dina Summer has just released their latest single, “Schall & Rauch” (translated as “Sound and Smoke”), marking the third preview from their sophomore album, “Girls Gang”, due out January 24, 2025, via Iptamenos Discos. The single features a fast-paced beat and melancholic, yet euphoric harmonies.
The track is part of a broader collection in “Girls Gang”, which explores diverse themes such as empowerment, outsiderhood, and impermanence. Previous singles from the album include “Halkidiki”, a dreamy track inspired by Greece, and “Alien”, a dancefloor-oriented track.
On Bandcamp the album will be completed with 11 tracks, 4 are now available.
The band, formed in 2020, is a collaboration between Kalipo (from electro-punk band Frittenbude) and dark-disco duo Local Suicide. Dina Summer’s previous work includes the 2022 album “Rimini”, which delved into retro disco influences, and the 2021 EP “Who Am I”.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
