What Dying Giraffe says about it:”Finally, you’re day comes to an end. You’re ready to sit back and relax. No TV, no social networking with your digital friends tonight. Just your eyes closed and waiting for transition to a different atmosphere. Well, let’s play Belanov. With their long-lasting, extensive and mostly instrumental compositions, we welcome you to an awesome and stunning atmosphere, you haven’t experienced yet!”
What Dying Giraffe says about it: “There you are, a well-experienced music listener. You’ve heard it all. A hardcore music fan familiar with all beautiful and shiny pearls of musical secrets. You’re asking yourself the question what’s next? Well, we would say Boy Ler. Yeah, they offer you great musical trips and their music is a real challenge for the listener. That’s what you were looking for, right? No new sweetheart, but exciting music!”
Corbelijn - Corbelijn I Enter artist page
Genre: singer-songwriter pop
What Dying Giraffe says about it: “Sometimes it feels great to feel sorry for yourself and the entire mankind. The blinders are shut, the lights are off and the perfect music that intensify this mood you’re in, plays pleasantly on the background. We recommend you Corbelijn. Their music is full of melancholy, but at the end it gives you strength and power. That’s what you want after all, right?”
LEFT - The Quest For Fire I Enter artist page
Genre: alternative rock
What Dying Giraffe says about it: "You’re alive and kicking. The world is yours. Powerful and energetic, that’s how you feel 24/7. Yeah, you are a superhero! And super music is what superheroes need! We recommend you LEFT. Their music is powerful and energetic, just like you. And because the music is very melodic too, you can even make silhouettes while you fly high in the sky!”
Marten de Paepe - Marten de Paepe I Enter artist page
Genre: singer-songwriter pop
What Dying Giraffe says about it: "Imagine sharing a glass of wine with your sweetheart as you snuggle in front of a crackling fireplace. Romance is in the air. All you need is the perfect music to complete this intimate experience. That’s what you’ll find on Marten de Paepe, a great album of beautiful, intense and dreamy pop tracks. Buy it today and make it the new soundtrack to your love life!"
What Dying Giraffe says about it: ”There are people who like to put their head into the speakers to enjoy music to the fullest. We don’t advocate this way of listening to music, but if that’s the way you like to experience music, please try MONO. It’s an extremely floated and particularly sincere band. It’s rock music with many dynamics, angular rhythms and inventive arrangements. But the best part for you is: their music bangs left and right from the speakers!”
Mucho Maestro - Selling Resolutions I Enter artist page
Genre: indie rock
What Dying Giraffe says about it: ”Being hyper active is okay. Actually hyper activity is a modern hype and like every kind of hype it may be cool to be part of it! If you give us the option to choose between sweet and chemical colorized candies or intense, chaotic, occasionally witty, conspicuously danceable, sharp, intelligent and sonically astounding rock music to keep hyper active, we definitely choose for Mucho Maestro!”

What Dying Giraffe says about it: ”There are a lot of nationalities, a lot of different cultures, a lot of music styles. If your interest in music styles and cultures is unlimited, you definitely gonna like NiCad. As diverse as their cultures and backgrounds are, so does their music. From avant-garde to funk to blues to punk to sober to drunk. But don’t get schizophrenic, you could then end up like those freaks from Pourquoi me reveiller!”

Genre: art pop
What Dying Giraffe says about it: ”With no exception, we meet fragile and schizophrenic people everyday. If it’s not you, then it’s Pourquoi me reveiller for sure. A bunch of very strange people actually making fragile and schizophrenic music. It’s nice though. No, it’s not nice!”
Solaire - And Then I Strapped Explosives To My Body I solaire
Genre: post-rock
What Dying Giraffe says about it: ”Every day feels the same like the day before. You’re cool with that, but some excitement would be great too. We think you’ll feel comfortable with Solaire.

Revu: '…. aanstekelijk historische werk…. ' Volkskrant: '… een prima excursiereader, maar ook een reisgids om zelfstandig mee door muziekstad Berlijn te lopen.' Dagblad van het Noorden: Jonker omzeilt de valkuil van betweterigheid en waakt voor een te gedetailleerd informatiebombardement. Daardoor leest haar boek als een vlotte, alternatieve resiids, ...' FileUnder.nl: 'Een must voor zowel muziekliefhebbers als politiek geïnteresseerden.' LiveXS: 'Voor iedereen die ooit in Berlijn is geweest, er nog naar toe wil of gewoon precies wil weten hoe Berlijn is geworden tot wat het is, lees dit.' CuttingEdge.be: 'Al weet je best veel van de Duitse geschiedenis, zo aangenaam compact, met een rode draad, kom je zelden tegen.'
I've been working on my first vinyl for two years now, but it's here! 5 little songs on a 7" called Sur La Route, with guest vocals of Julien Pras (Calc) and David Lespes (Pull) recorded in Bordeaux. You can listen to a few songs in my player, but for only 5 euros you can get a copy in the Snowstar Store. Thanks for the support!
