50 Jahre Zündfunk. Music Sounds Better With You!

The Bayern 2 scene magazine connects generations in pop, politics and discourse and shows how radio can enrich lives. Celebrating this means getting out of your chairs in the Schauspielhaus and dancing until dawn with the Zündfunk Allstars at the aftershow in the TAM TAM Treppenbar and the Blaues Haus.

But let’s start at the beginning: looking back on half a century of Zündfunk requires a look back at exciting and lively radio history. This, in turn, is not possible without concerts:

Sophia Kennedy is from Hamburg. Her fantastic voice mixes electronic structures with the classic stage pop of Tin Pan Alley. Her music sounds equally imaginative and great above and below the water. And she is one of the Zündfunk editorial team’s favorite artists, which must suffice as an authority on taste tonight.

And then there’s Spacefuzzy, a mysterious being. His self-description reads as if it won’t be understood until the year 2050 at the earliest: “Spacefuzzy plays cosmic dub, random rap and electropunk and is sometimes accidentally lumped into the chillwave corner. He made a pilgrimage after the P-Funk all-stars in the 90s and has more of a thing for Sun Ra’s cosmic equations than for his bank balance.” So is Spacefuzzy a reference juggler following in the footsteps of the financial jugglers? Or is he – as the band photo suggests – extraterrestrial after all?
