Berlin Dance/Electro Duo AB SYNDROM

From 20 October to 30 November 2019, the Berlin dance/electro duo AB SYNDROM will tour from Vietnam to Hong Kong and the Philippines at the invitation of the Goethe-Institut, to inspire young German learners and fans of electronic music with their poetic German-language songs and extraordinary beats.
 
In Hong Kong, the two talented Berlin musicians will perform in an open-air concert at the Goethe-Festival on 3 November and will give a music workshop. They will also perform at the German-Swiss International School and at a club in Hong Kong.

The Berlin duo AB SYNDROM and its unusual beats have been rocking the German music scene since 2017, including their vocal chop hit "Flaggschiff". 
 
In 2018 the duo released their third album PLASTIK and their feature "Spiegelbild" with the famous German singer Mine, which was highly praised by the critics. Their second album HEY HERZ made the Radio Fritz "Sound of 2017" list. Percussion, electronic sounds, and intricate beats form the backdrop for frontman Bennet Seuß’s poetry. Anton Bruch and Bennet Seuß create all their sound effects live on stage.

AB stands for Anton and Bennet, the names of the two musicians. With more than 1.5 million streams on Spotify and a constant presence on German radio (radioeins, Fritz, Deutschlandfunk, Nova), the duo earned their place in the more progressive sections of the German-speaking music world. The duo has also become musical symbol for Berlin.

These two men are Berlin, their music is Berlin, and now Berlin is AB Syndrome. With their song about the subway line U8, they have set a monument to the city. (Tagesspiegel, 2018)
 
And here, between all the swelling and ebbing synthesizer sounds and sophisticated grooves, listeners might even overcome their phobia of German as a pop music language. [...] The punny lyrics revolve around a world of love machinations (“Put your tactical blossoms back into their plastic bags!”) and metropolitan reveries (“We’re spitting down from the highest building in town”). (Music Express, 2018)
