The Last Mandrill [20:30]
Within the dragging alternative rock of the ’90s, Last Mandrill merges modernity with a futuriphobic tension. Nostalgia and despair collide in a theatrical sound full of romantic sincerity, where mythologised and intensified reality becomes audible.

Cody [21:40]
With personal lyrics and an immersive sound, Cody draws listeners into his world. Inspired by Mac Miller, Blackwave and Kendrick Lamar, he creates a unique, idiosyncratic sound with introspective lyrics and a strong rhythmic foundation, shaped by his background as a drummer.

AWARD CEREMONY

MAYA MARIA [22:20]
In a blend of Alt-R&B and Artpop, MAYA MARIA seeks the contrast between the natural and the unnatural. Her music disarms emotionally and challenges at the same time, merging disciplines into an energising, visual live experience centred on her story and feelings.

Cashmyra [23:20]
With a fierce post-punk sound, Cashmyra balances between raw, dark and razor-sharp. Characteristic lyrics, primal screams, newly fragile whispers and a fresh, calmer tone create a layered sound, enhanced by idiosyncratic arrangements and synth-guitar pedal.
