Deichkind are a rap band hailing from Hamburg, Germany who formed in 1997. Since debuting in 2000 they have become one of the most ridiculous, yet unmissable live acts in European hip-hop, and have released six studio albums in total.
Philipp Grütering and Malte Pittner grew up in the Hamburg borough of Bergedorf and met while going to school together. Fuelled by a passion for hip-hop, a desire to shake up the conservative German rap scene and an absolute aversion to taking themselves too seriously, the duo formed Deichkind with producer Sebastian Hackert and DJ Phono shortly after leaving high school. As a band dedicated to being fun in an incredibly po-faced scene, it’s safe to say that they weren’t exactly embraced by the rap community when they debuted. A lot of their early shows were aborted mere minutes after taking the stage due to the crowd not taking too kindly to the band’s outlandish antics, usually expressing their umbrage via the medium of thrown glass bottles, tin cans and the occasional tomato. Not to be deterred, the band recruited a third MC in the form of Buddy Inflagranti, and by late 1999, enough people convinced, so the band signed to Warner’s Showdown record label.
Their debut album “Bitte ziehen Sie durch” was released in early 2000 and its lead single “Bon Voyage” was a sleeper hit, getting the band slots in practically every major music festival in Germany. This exposed a lot of people to their utterly ridiculous live show, making the band cult sensations and setting them up to be the biggest rap act in Germany. In true Deichkind style, that’s exactly what didn’t happen. Instead the band took a three year hiatus after the release of their second effort “Noch 5 Minuten Mutti” in 2002 and returned as a straight electro-pop act. Ever since then the band have gone from strength to strength, releasing a further four albums and continuing to take their thrillingly bonkers live show everywhere that’ll have them. There is truly no-one else in the world like them, and for that, they come highly recommended.
Read moreIn the world of live music, there’s undeniably room for extremely serious concerts. The kind where a solemn young thing sits at a piano, deftly strokes its keys and emotes about “the issues” while lit by a lone spotlight and is watched by a hushed theatre full of people who read Q magazine and have informed opinions about what the perfect Radiohead set list would be. I personally have been to a whole bunch of those shows and they can be utterly brilliant. But that’s not to say that I don’t sometimes want to see a guy dressed head to foot in neon coloured bin bags rap blisteringly fast in German to a backing track of sample laden hip-hop while hopping around like a maniac inside an onstage bouncy castle inscribed with the words “YIPPI YIPPI YEAH!”. When I do want to see that (and that’s quite often) I simply wait patiently for some UK dates from Hamburg based Hip Hop collective Deichkind. The band describes their live show as “a children’s birthday party for adults”, and that just about sums it up. It’s a riot of noise, colour and joy that’s an abundance of fun for the people invited, and probably an absolute nightmare to clean up afterwards. There’re few other bands in the world quite like them and truly a bucket list band for anyone passionate about live music. Anyone with a passion for comedy sunglasses and masks that light up should also sign up, cos there’re loads of them as well!
Most people who have little knowledge about the genres of rap and hip hop presume it all comes exclusively from the East or West Coast of the States. Yet following from the golden age of hip hop in the 80s, many other countries experienced an influx of new performers inspired by the movement. Germany in particularly had a strong underground scene and it was within this that Deichkind formed and made themselves known.
The group has been operating since the mid-90s blending hip hop and electro yet it was not until 2012 that one of their albums was considered to be a commercial hit in their homeland. Now entertaining thousands at a time, there is still some evidence of the basement intimacy of the early shows through intense renditions of 'Limit' and 'Komm schon'. There is further emphasis on production now though which intensifies the electro side of the music with impressive visuals and fast paced lighting displays. The whole crowd is incredibly excited before they close on a double hit of 'Bon Voyage' and 'Remmidemmi'. After twenty top quality songs the crowds cheer in mass approval of this awesome outfit.
Great concert. Band was very energetic and the show included a lot of interaction with the audience. In the second half of the concert the songs became faster and so became the movement of the crowd. I don't like the location that much as the acoustic is not so great and they seemed to have some logistic challenges as their were long queues everywhere. Still a great party and a super concert.
Absolute Empfehlung!!!
Muss man gesehen haben. Die Jungs wissen wie man Stimmung produziert und die Menge zum Eskalieren bringt!
Ich komme wieder und wieder und wieder!!!
Mit viel Remmi Demmi bis ans Limit und noch weiter hinaus!
