Ariel Hyatt Guest Post : 6 Shocking Reasons Your Facebook Fans Aren’t Engaged (Part 2 of 2)

After our recent discussion surrounding the major obstacles that are stopping your effective growth on your Facebook fan page, we introduced a new two-part series focused on data relating to Facebook engagement and visibility that shines a spotlight on the harsh reality that is Facebook-centric community building.

Show review // Matthew E. White

Another promising edition to the Privatclub lineup; Matthew E. White stopped by this week to bring his mixture of crooning vocals and exceptional instrumental talent with addition of his bassist Cameron Ralston, and drummer Pinson Chanselle. The smooth and convincing sound of Matthew's voice is like a comfy blanket wrapping around you, making you feel like all is well in the world.
Pinky's Peepshow this Wednesday - go, I dare you

Pinky's Peepshow this Wednesday - go, I dare you

Yay! It's Pinky's Peepshow time again, this time presented by the only electric-blue bunny-suit-wearing MC in town, Scotty the Blue Bunny. How he stands out from that crowd of bunny-suit-wearing MCs I don't know, but he does. Then we got stunning international burlesque acts Tallulah Freeway from Canada, the burlesque dancer named after a road, and Erochica Bamboo from Tokyo, also the slightly worryingly named Frank Sanazi, follow the article to see the embedded vid, which, well, frankly doesn't reassure me that much....
Show review // Psychic Ills

Show review // Psychic Ills

Brooklyn-based psychedellic rock mavens, Psychic Ills, played the 8MM Musik Night at Bassy and it was magical to say the least. For one thing, it was one of the most packed shows I've been to lately, plus it was on a Tuesday which is quite impressive. The atmosphere was similar to what you would imagine an opium den to be like; a familiar haze filled the air and sleepy looking attendees sauntered around while swaying to the music.
indieberlin reccomendation for the weekend: In the Silo - A Spring Celebration this Saturday and Sunday 20th and 21st April

indieberlin reccomendation for the weekend: In the Silo - A Spring Celebration this Saturday and Sunday 20th and 21st April

To celebrate the long awaited rays of sunshine Spring bestows upon us Mind Pirates have invited a mixture of musicians who will play an array of audio-visual experimental compositions, over two days in the Mindpirates Silo. The unique space in the Silo is exemplified by its geometric architecture ideal to create an introspective atmosphere for mind-bending fusion.

Bop to the bass in an amalgamation of krautrock, post punk, hip hop and loose your senses in a mingling of jazz beats, drone, ambient techno; consummated to perfection with psychedelic visuals; an ensemble erupting to elevated electronic euphoria, taking you on a trip deep into other worldly phenomena. Together we're going to galvanize our minds, lavish our bodies and rejuvenate our wintered soul in Spring’s awakening. Sounds pretty crazy, huh?
Meet the team - our new series featuring members of indieberlin Noel Maurice // co-founder of indieberlin

Meet the team - our new series featuring members of indieberlin

To show you once again a more personal side of indieberlin, we have decided to introduce to you the indieberlin team little by little.

... and this time it's Noel Maurice under the spotlight!

Noel Maurice first arrived young and fresh-faced in early 90s Berlin after taking a wrong turn somewhere and deciding to stay. He landed directly in Tacheles and lived there in the early days of the now famous art house, helping to shape the brand new underground scene. In between helping to start clubs and helping to end them he managed simultaneously to enjoy the wilder aspects of the scene while also forming, joining and leaving numerous indie bands and collectives.
Lasse Matthiessen, Ian Fisher, Halla Nördfjörd "Carry Me Down" / Label: Solaris Empire

"Carry Me Down" - neues Album von Lasse Matthiessen (DK) mit Ian Fisher (US) und Halla Nördfjörd (Island)

Lasse Matthiessen hat ein neues Album aufgenommen. Diesmal nicht mit Band, sondern mit Ian Fisher (US) und Halla Nördfjörd (Island). Es ist intim, leise, dreistimmig und sehr ehrlich. Die Platte heißt "Carry Me Down" und kommt am 24. Mai in die Läden und durch die digitalen Kanäle und landet hoffentlich direkt bei euch.

Davor gibt es natürlich ein tolles Release-Event: am 16.05. findet ein Konzert in den Nordischen Botschaften statt - und zwar mit freiem Eintritt!

Aber wer nun erst mal ein signiertes Album "Carry Me Down" gewinnen - möchte, der schreit laut oder mailt uns unter dem Betreff "Lasse Matthiessen" an win@indieberlin.de

Joachim Deutschland plays unplugged in Junction Bar - indieberlin is happy

Joachim Deutschland plays unplugged in Junction Bar - indieberlin is happy

I'd first heard of Joachim Deutschland, bizzarely enough, in London whilst spending a disproportionate amount of time amongst Germans, which in retrospect was probably the time when the seeds of Germanophilia that eventually brought me here were sown. When I found out on the day that Joachim Deutschland was playing at Junction Bar, I flushed with excitement, involuntarily released a small amount of urine before changing my underwear and making my way swiftly down to Kreuzberg.
