Waveywave
From park freestyles to the national finals—Adrian, also known as waveywave, combines hip-hop, indie, and pop to create his own unique style that focuses on heart and attitude. Just a few weeks ago, the native Berliner represented the capital as state champion in the national finals of the “Local Heroes” newcomer contest. He is following in the footsteps of legends such as Tokio Hotel and Madsen. Even as a teenager, he was captivated by formats such as Rap am Mittwoch. During the coronavirus pandemic, he picked up the guitar, which has since accompanied his rap flow with melodic sounds.
As a friend of the house, he has helped out countless times at our events. This time, he is our guest artist on stage.
Time to say: Welcome to the Eastside – waveywave!
Hänsel
Hänsel (born Marius Weigel) has quickly earned himself a special status in the German-speaking music scene: with a unique blend of reinterpretations of classics, some of which are hundreds of years old, and his own works, he has established himself as an unmistakable artist – entirely on his own.
Traditional costumes and techno are just the surface – Hänsel stands for much more. Based on his own experiences, he uses his art and his presence on social media to create an inclusive space for anyone who feels marginalised or misunderstood. Under his motto ‘Take your broken heart, and make it into art’, Hänsel transforms personal vulnerability into artistic strength and appeals to people who long for acceptance and understanding.
Lara
LARA is a rising artist from Berlin who’s been making waves for the past two years with her honest, vibey, and sometimes cheeky songs. What began as small piano snippets on TikTok after her first breakup has grown into an exciting independent journey. In the studio, she transforms raw emotions into her very own signature sound. With a stack of unreleased demos up her sleeve, LARA is ready for the months ahead. We can’t wait to hear more from her soon. And if you want a live sneak peek—you know where to be on September 27th!
MONEY BADOO
Money Badoo crosses cultural boundaries, blends genres, and moves with equal parts pleasure, provocation, and vision. On her debut PORN$TAR (2022), the Johannesburg-born artist fused trap beats with R&B vibes, hyperpop with soul, creating a confident signature sound. Celebrated as a multifaceted voice in South Africa, she is still a hidden gem in Europe. Her background as a stylist and photographer—working with brands like H&M and Puma—shapes her output: immersive works where visuals and sound intertwine. With her second album MSRYLUV$CMPNY (2025), she pushes this approach further, weaving in new influences while transforming pain into empowerment. This September, Money Badoo brings that energy to the stage.
