Listen (t)here feat. Das Ende der Liebe

Conceived as a counterproposal to our intricate relationship with time in the modern world, Das Ende der Liebe’s music addresses the tension between the ever-demanding pace of contemporary life and our subconscious yearning for moments of reflection and contemplation. Their music pieces are deep sonic spaces that invite listeners to explore the nuances of time, reevaluate and transform their perception of it, and surrender themselves to the band’s magically tempus-stretching aural supernovae.
Andreas Völk (Guitar, Voice, Live Beat- & Sound Processing), Laurenz Gemmer (Yamaha CP70, Ableton Live), Kenn Hartwig (Bass, Nintendo GameBoy) and Thomas Sauerborn (Drums, Synths) are vibrational sound alchemists who crafted a new universe, ever-expanding, built from electronics, acoustics, psychedelics and groove since the year of
the portal, 2014.
In September 2022, the band released SCHNE*E, which earned the honour of being voted one of GROOVE MAGAZINE’s Top 20 essential albums of 2022. Critics and fans were stunned by this release, describing them as “[…] a band intricately weaving the vibes of the 70’s and 80’s, rooted in Cologne and Berlin. SCHNE*E effortlessly traverses a spectrum of sonic possibilities, from Dark Ambient to their self-proclaimed ‘Alien-Jazz‘ and Industrial influences, with unmistakable nods to Can, Throbbing Gristle, and Psychic TV.”
The new album Persist (2025) marks the next chapter in the band’s ongoing musical odyssey – and this time, they are joined by transdisciplinary, non-binary artist su dance110. Following the success of SCHNE*E the expanded line-up once again captivates audiences and critics alike. Persist was awarded the German Record Critics’ Award (Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik) in the category Experimental and Electronic, underscoring its artistic impact and innovation.
