Deltawelle Sentiments Release Konzert

Der Sound von DELTAWELLE spielt in einen Raum ohne Zeitgefühl, und ihre bunten Texte finden Worte für die großen Gegensätze und Spannungen des Lebens. Zu euphorischen New- Wave Klangteppichen gesellen sich melancholische Beobachtungen und nachdenkliche Träumereien. Zu ihren Indie- und Punk-Einflüssen passen die nicht immer ganz ernst gemeinten Texte und Ansichten von DELTAWELLE-Songwriter Franz Schneeweiß. DELTAWELLE bezeichnen sich selbst als New-Wave- Quartett und pendeln zwischen Berlin und Leipzig.

„Viele Ideen kommen unerwartet aus dem Unterbewusstsein, oftmals kurz vor dem Schlaf.“, so der Frontmann, was auch den Namen DELTAWELLE erklärt, denn seine Band benannte Franz Schneeweiß nach einer Hirnwelle, die das Gehirn während der Tiefschlafphase erzeugt und deren Betrachtung ihn nachhaltig faszinierte. So kann es passieren, dass der ein oder andere aus dem Unterbewusstsein geschriebene Song keinen Ausweg findet, sich mehr hingezogen fühlt zu Dynamik und zum Sphärischen, als zum klassischen 3:30 Kracher. Einzelne lange Passagen laden zum Tanzen und Treibenlassen ein, andere Songs erzählen mit Witz von einer Welt voller Gegensätze und Ausflüchte.

Kat Koan is a Berlin based artist with a passion for expressing intense emotions through music and visuals.

At the age of 19 she left her hometown Riesa in East Germany and moved to London, where she studied Media Arts and Management. After graduating from Surrey University she worked as a News Reporter/writer for Bloomberg News and later moved on to producing various children’s TV series, commercials, music videos and Short Films, organised Film screenings as well as Art Exhibitions and trained as a voice over artist in London. During her time as a commercials producer she developed a passion for combining words and visuals with music. She began to write poems and short stories and made field recordings to create soundscapes for these stories, in order to bring them to life and add more depth and dimension. This later led to an interest in song writing.

In 2017 Kat started to write lyrics for other artists and from 2018 she decided to take up singing. The focus on musical and visual storytelling didn’t go unnoticed. When she finished the production of her debut album LUSTPRINZIP with Alex Lavery in London, David Lynch’s sound supervisor Dean Hurley heard something in her electro clash songs that intrigued him and offered to mix the album. Some of the songs were subsequently placed on adverts for clients like Glass Magazine and Bulgari, and were met with positive press and live audience reactions. This gave her the confidence and drive to keep going and improve her songwriting skills. In 2020 she started to collaborate with a Belgian producer & musician for her new album COCOON, which explores an entirely different musical genre, as well as a more grown up approach to storytelling. The album is now complete and ready to be released in 2022.
