Fuck. That feeling when you realize rammsteins music is as far back as 20 years ago.

Wolfsheim are pretty amazing ! Germany has a rich history of excellent music. They also have laws that enforce airplay of a German music (35% of all music played on the radio has to be from German artists), which has led to a bit of a renaissance of the german music scene over the past 10 years.

Here some of the stuff I like(d) to listen to

Cool. Very interesting about the 35% rule, you would think some other countries would realize it makes sense to give your own country a chance. At the very least, making sure more established industry cannot be able to buy up 90% of your "Shelf-space". Very common sense law.

It is unfortunate side effect of globalization that a "Western-washing" by a tidal wave of capital that knocks down everything it comes into contact with.

Not German, but it works:
