Berlin-based musician and DJ Curses rides the next wave of acid, post-punk and dark disco. His latest album Another Heaven was released on the legendary synthwave label Italians Do It Better and co-produced by Johnny Jewel. Curses has also collaborated with Âme on Shadow of Love for Innervisions, while staying true to his punk and new wave approach to electronic music. He has performed at iconic venues and festivals such as DC-10, Nuits Sonores and Grauzone Festival, and holds a residency at Berlin’s infamous Pornceptual.

Through his Next Wave Acid Punx parties and vinyl compilations, Curses continues to champion New Beat, early EBM, post-punk and obscure Italo—bringing a romantic, punk-charged energy from the shadows of the 80s straight into today’s clubs.

First acts emerging from the grey:
✦ IC3PEAK - last Berlin show before hiatus
✦ CURSES (LIVE)
✦ AIGEL
✦ QUAL - Lebanon Hanover's William Maybelline solo project.
+ more acts to be announced

CURSES x ESKIMO RECORDINGS | NEXT WAVE ACID PUNX TROIS! | RELEASE PARTY

On Friday June 5, @amigosareforever teams up with @eskimorecordings for the official release party of ' @nextwaveacidpunx TROIS!' by @cursesforever!

The final chapter in Curses’ acclaimed Next Wave Acid Punx trilogy dives into the sounds that shaped early rave culture: punk attitude meeting Detroit techno, EBM, trance, breakbeats and underground warehouse energy. A journey from 90s Brooklyn rave culture to today’s dancefloor.

For this special night, Curses brings the spirit of the release to Amigo with a lineup built for the darker, euphoric corners of club music.

→ TRUST #4 avec CURSES

Figure incontournable des nuits underground entre Berlin et New York, CURSES façonne depuis des années une signature unique où se croisent New Wave, Italo-Disco, Post-punk et Proto-House. Entre voix fantomatiques live, body music sombre et envolées romantiques, il transforme chaque set en voyage cinématographique.

Reconnu pour son approche instinctive du dancefloor, CURSES navigue avec élégance entre énergie brute et nostalgie euphorique, toujours avec cette tension punk et émotionnelle qui fait de ses sets des expériences à part entière.

Dernièrement aperçu sur le mythique label Italians Do It Better avec son album “Another Heaven”, co-produit par Johnny Jewel, il a également collaboré avec Âme sur Innervisions et signé des sorties sur Dischi, Bordello A Parigi, Running Back ou Wrong Era. Fondateur de la série culte Next Wave Acid Punx et résident de l’iconique Pornceptual à Berlin, CURSES continue d’imaginer le futur du club à travers les fantômes des années 80 et 90.
