Finally, the volcano is keeping its trap shut and even Ms Sun is getting into a better mood every day. Less than six weeks lay between us and the rebirth of la pampa. No reason to hold the final pieces of the live lineup back. The last three bands are Indigo Tree from Poland, DVA from the Czech Republic and P:HON from Germany. Full on cluster fuck that is.

Furthermore we can announce a couple of live electro sets by Jakob Korn (Dresden) and Meier & Erdmann (Leipzig). Naturally on top of that a few jockeys will ride their discs. Embrace the finest dance stimulation by Jack The Knife, Local Suicide, Mashpit, Hands up-Excitement DJs, Moshpitters, c.a.r.s., fucking Pop and Marsmellows.

More info regarding the fantabulous “la pampa open air warm up bash” at the Bunte Republik Neustadt in Dresden and the Fête de la Musique in Berlin will follow soon. Stay tuned.

Now all we need is some sunshine. Everything else is well in the works. The penultimate shipping of bands for this year’s issue of la pampa reserves a spot for everyone from heavy-weights to light-weights and West to East.

Way ahead: Tocotronic. Their attendance will exceed a few limits, the first being our own imagination. Almost like that scene from Wayne‘s World. Excellent.

Travelling together from Berlin we welcome SDNMT and Petula. They’ll bring some new music too. Rockin.

Pretty much yet unheard stuff will be broadcasted by electro-pop-pioneers Cercueil from France and indie brats Schweinemaschinen from the other end of the Baltic sea in Saint-Petersburg. Cowabunga.

We’re bursting with the news of this next band jam.

You can anticipate to see live at la pampa: Get Well Soon! After their sold-out tour they’ll stop at the Freibad to relax with us. It’s gonna be picturesque.

Furthermore the Kammerflimmer Kollektief will conjure voluptuous and smiling day dreams on your faces. Together with our favorite Aussie Kat Frankie and the charming Anatolians Fuji Kureta this will round up the festival Sunday.

From the Kingdom in the North-West the young indie pop heroes Flashguns will come to visit, and Alcoholic Faith Missionare rolling down from Copenhagen.

Finally, and back after a long time of purring sleep: Katze from Berlin. Voilà!

In time for the family Easter gathering we want to lay a few special eggs into your Easter basket. We welcome to this year’s la pampa the notorious ZEBU! as well as The Friendliness is Going Happy. Furthermore, say hello to some good ol’ friends from Dresden – the Flanschies.

Anarchy and sound sculptures. Let’s shake the lake.

We may now officially declare what internally has already been long celebrated: Who Made Who will sweeten pampa-Friday and transform the star-spattered sky into a disco ball.

Furthermore, Italian post rock heroes Giardini di Mirówill bring their rapturous, boundless melodies.

Rounding up this quartet are Trip Fontaine with their inexplicable mix of genres and Earthbend with their heavy guitar murals.

Slowly one may configure a sort of picture of the pampa at the horizon.

is now available on our exclusive pampa vinyl in the upper left-hand corner. We welcome Hundreds and Aucan as the next sparkling jewels in the precious mosaic that la pampa is. Two bands whose music could not be more different. Bon appétit!

It’s starting all over again. The ice crust is still suspiciously thick and appears increasingly glacial but instead of martyring you with winter weather metaphors here’s a short list of what’s already bringing joy to our life in the cold.

We are looking forward to Bratze who are coming with a new album to their home game.

We are looking forward to Kristen who couldn’t make it last year but now are following the cry of the pampa.

We are looking forward to Yucca who will shake the stage strumming and wriggling.
We are looking forward to Lonski & Classen who musically break hearts.
