SYNÄSTHESIE FESTIVAL

DEEP CONNECTION

"With the festival and the band selection, a deep connection to the global DIY music scene and its protagonists is the bridge that brings the different types/sectors together."

ASSOCIATION WITH SYNÄSTHESIE FESTIVAL

A FESTIVAL LIKE NO OTHER

The Synästhesie Festival is part of a music tradition rooted in East Berlin and centered around the internationally acclaimed 8MM Bar, where some of Germany's most respected independent musicians got their start.

THE AUDIENCE

The festival is as much about the audience as it is about the program. The two interact seamlessly. Half the audience is said to look like they're in a band, and the bands mingle with the audience. Young and mature audiences alike revel in a shared aesthetic that puts creativity, design and the art of performance in the spotlight.

BRAND MATCH

There aren't many brands that can keep up with this community, but the ones that do leave a lasting impression. Not only in terms of their own connection to the audience, but also in terms of what these cool kids continue to use long after. See Doc Martins, Levi's, Raybans, etc.

  • STEREOGUM

    "[…] you could already feel the festival’s potential to continue becoming something bigger in coming years. Always well-curated, it seemed particularly evident this year that Synästhesie is adept at bringing together different voices and cultures all within a loosely-connected type of music. And at the same time, you never forgot you were attending a festival in the heart of Berlin. It pulled off a tricky feat, becoming a festival that was unmistakably local even as it welcomed in all these disparate voices.”

  • VISIONS

    "There it is again: the offer of the Synästhesie Festival to completely immerse yourself in another reality, almost as if it were changeable depending on your point of view. An almost healing realizations.”

  • FLUX FM

    "In recent years, the Synästhesie Festival has blossomed into one of the best-curated festivals in the city, constantly pushing and redefining genre boundaries.”

  • HITCHER

    “Synästhesie Festival once again claimed its place in the Berlin music community with a well-curated mix of artists representing different scenes around the world and coming together to share common interests and a love for music. Looking back on the weekend with ears still ringing, it’s clear that 8MM Musik have a solid grip on how to pull of successful big events with impressive sound and lighting and managed to bring 20 artists representing different genders and sexualities together during a pandemic to create a memorable weekend of live performances.”

  • GAESTELISTE.DE

    "Even without an obvious mega-headliner, the Synästhesie Festival 2023 once again offered so much variety and different acts that there should have been something for everyone - and for many, everything actually had some kind of appeal. From a musical point of view, this of course speaks for the concept of putting together the program subjectively according to purely personal aspects without regard to commercial considerations.”

  • METRONOMIC UNDERGROUND

    “I’m glad Synästhesie survived the pandemic, that they’re still going strong, and that they pull in a good mix of psychedelic bands from across the spectrum. I think it’s great to stretch their bounds and bring in a somewhat wider range of artists.”

  • METRONOMIC UNDERGROUND

    “This was a pretty incredible set of bands to see all in one night. I thoroughly enjoyed all of them, which is a rare occurrence for me!”

  • MUSIK REVIEWS

    "With its wide range of styles, this year's festival appealed to a correspondingly diverse audience.”

  • PRETTY IN NOISE

    "The Synästhesie Festival seems to be a kind of insider tip simply because of the rather small capacity of the location, despite the excellent line-up, which can not only totally inspire in 2021 without a single cancellation.”
