Verstärker is a sound and a vision united in the quest for motorik space exploration. Comprised of sonic cosmonauts J. Gibson (bass/synth/recording), J. Norfleet (drums), and J. Vitatoe (guitar/effects/visuals), the band coalesced in 2012 as a way of exploring their mutual love of music. Honed on the sounds of krautrock, post-punk, no wave, and drone, Verstärker stand ready for lift-off into the ether.
Their debut record - Aktivität was recorded in their own Cosmere Studio throughout 2015 and released on their own imprint, SpaceLab Records. As critic Renato Malizia of The Blog That Celebrates Itself states, Aktivität is "forty-five minutes (that) lead you to hypnotic terrain, extra sensory sensations, cosmic spaces with repetitions, drones and loops in the service of the anti-song."
Re-released by Tonzonen Records in 2018, the clear vinyl LP edition of Aktivität quickly sold out. It was soon followed by a second edition on transparent red. Since then, Verstärker has made numerous compilation appearances including Fuzz Club Records' Reverb Conspiracy Volume 6 and the Psych Against Cancer benefit compilation.
Known for their kinetic live performances, Verstärker has shared the stage with such artists as The Telescopes, Camera, Majeure, Parlour, among others.
Now signed to Fuzz Club Records, Verstärker released their last full record on Fuzz Club - 'Jenseits' to critical acclaim, in the Fall of 2023.
Verstärker have also released a brilliant 'Live at Fuzz Club Festival ’24' record which is available on Fuzz Club Records.

Inspired by the monotonous howl of industrial machinery, driven by a carefully computed pulse. PNEM is a four-piece band from the Netherlands.The perfect soundtrack for those seemingly never-ending highway (over)drives, taking you all the way in until the repetition of flashing lights and the rumbling sounds of the motorway starts to feel like the never-ending trip you were always dreaming of.
PNEM performed a storming set at the 2023 Other Side Psych All Dayer in London and now finally return ready to London for a long over due tour of the UK!
