Kalipo

Kalipo is one of the most busiest and creative forces in Berlin’s electronic music scene.

With over 30 million streams and global radio airplay, his solo project blends electronic intensity with emotional depth somewhere between club culture and indie aesthetics. Straight, driving beats rooted in Krautrock meet striking melodies inspired by Electroclash, House, and Techno from the 2000s and 2010s. His sound shifts between raw and emotive – floating freely between Dark Disco, Electroclash, Wave, Techno, and House.
Kalipo himself describes his sound now as Disco Punk or Neo Punk – Tapping into a scene that's all about the spirit of today’s Indie Sleaze revival.
With five solo albums and a broad catalogue of singles and remixes on acclaimed labels like Iptamenos Discos, Ki Records, Get Physical, Audiolith Records and Heimlich, Kalipo has carved out a firm place in the scene.

Beyond his solo work, Kalipo is a founding member of the influential German band Frittenbude, which has played a key role in shaping the German Electropunk sound for nearly two decades. The band has regularly charted (in DACH Region) and performed at major festivals such as Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Hurricane, and Southside – playing in front of crowds of over 40,000 people. He is also part of the Disco-Darkwave trio Dina Summer (together with Local Suicide), which was hailed by FAZE Magazine as one of the most promising upcoming electronic acts in Germany.
