When Apparat’s lead singer Sascha Ring announced at a concert in Berghain in November 2012 that it would be the band’s final show, many tears were shed in the audience. But it seems that it was all a misunderstanding: It was just the final show of the Devil’s Walk tour. So fortunately, Berlin’s best band is not splitting up.

As a a matter of fact, there is not much electronic music out there that is just as exiting and beautiful as his. Anyone who has seen him performing live can confirm this.

Yesterday evening I went to a bar with friends taking seat at a table with other people who were about to discuss the ticket prices of the Berlin Festival.
