Founded in Berlin in 2021, Das Beat are blending sounds of German New Wave, Dark Disco, Indie, & Dance, their sound is unified by the vocals of Eddie Rabenberger, sung in both German and English. Amidst playful lyrics lies a strong dancey pulse (Das “Beat”), pinning down the duo’s meandering atmospherics, dreamy synths, guitars and percussion.

The duo is half-Canadian and half-German. Dj Kirby (Blue Hawaii), moved to Berlin from Montreal in 2018. Eddie is a performance artist originally from a small town in southern Germany. Together they find an alluring symbiosis - like Giorgio Moroder meets Nico, or Gina X Performance finds The Prodigy.
