MODULAR
11:54 PM. Heading towards Hamburg on the A1. Rain beats against the windshield of the Polo 86C named Agneta. Accompanied by pulsating synths and atmospheric sounds, the Hamburg-based artist drives through the depths of the night. Her consciously fluid soundscapes create contrasts that push towards merging. MODULAR cannot simply be grasped between nostalgia and progressiveness - self-referential, critical of society, feminist. In doing so, she captures the dark and the beautiful, the grey and the colorful, the warm and the cold, encompassing Düsseldorf and Hamburg, creating a new German-language romanticism of 80s nostalgia.
The musician is a serious and important new act in the Hamburg indie scene, and her sound is on the shortlists of tastemaker magazines nationwide: as an organic and independent evolution of the soundscapes of influential bands like Aurora, Allie X, Siouxie and the Banshees, and Depeche Mode from New Wave, Indie, and Wave Pop, MODULAR creates a unique sound world in the zeitgeist.
With her debut EP "Rauschgift," MODULAR has already graced the cover of Spotify's "Fresh Finds GSA" and DIFFUS' "Neue Neue Deutsche Welle" playlist, as well as the print cover of the magazine DAS WETTER. This was followed by her iconic cover "Goldener Reiter," the single "Herbstduett" with Kerker, "Zeit steht" in February 2024, and at the end of April, the release "Erste Große Freiheit," a collaboration with Mia Morgan.
On stage, MODULAR invites you on a journey, away from everyday life and into a fictitious home. Together, the audience celebrates as she sings about first queer love or emancipation from a toxic relationship. With an unmistakable stage presence, artistic stage design, and emotionality, MODULAR has the audience in her hand and captivates them.
The artist with roots in Düsseldorf is set to take the stage live in 2023: in addition to supporting shows for Mia Morgan, Mayberg, nand, and SALÒ, she has also performed at Juicy Beats Festival, Riviera Festival, Cologne Music Week, and KiezKultur Festival.
In February 2024, she celebrated her first headliner shows with the "Rendezvous" tour, and for the summer season, festivals such as c/o pop, Unter einem Dach, About Pop Festival in Stuttgart, and die neue wellen in Cologne have already been confirmed.
For November and December, she announces the "Trümmer dieser Stadt Tour 2024," which will take her to five major German cities.
