CITY SLANG
Berlin based City Slang is an independent label formed by former booking agent Christof Ellinghaus. Started in 1990 it became, almost by chance, a label for US bands that needed a home in Europe, initially for artists like Flaming Lips and Yo La Tengo followed by others like Calexico, Lambchop, Stars or Nada Surf. Recently more and more European artists like The Notwist or Get Well Soon are released. The label celebrates its 20th birthday last year.

disco volante UG
Music at heart is a truly emotional experience. Something people want to share with whomever they would like, wherever they would like, in real time. We created wahwah.fm as a tool in order to make this happen. wahwah.fm is an app that puts away all the algorithms that tell you what you should like, that removes the isolating experience of listening to music on your headphones – it’s about creating something larger than ourselves.
