But behind this artistic duality lies a deeper dimension: a message of revolutionary love and friendship. Beach Church formed in something like 2005 as young teens.
That same Street
In That same Street, Dex combines the high-pitched screams popularized by Bands likeFlowers Taped to Pens or Your arms are my Cocoon, a wide array of instrumental Influences from Midwest Emo (ボーカロイドの涙) to Electronic Vocaloid Music (iARA) and most importantly the iconic voice of the popular Vocaloid Hatsune Miku.
With his 3rd full EP “Mikramz” he refines his off-kilter mix of clean Vocaloid Vocals and Screams into his most complete project to date. His live performances are loud, extreme and frankly captivating in a way you probably have never seen before

Beach Church
Formed in something like 2005 as young teens but quickly disbanding after surprising and overwhelming underground success on platforms like MySpace and Pure Volume that was never meant to be, Beach Church are back to spread the twinkle and colour in the blank space between Post Midwest Emo to Leftfield Math Pop. Beach Church decided to ditch traditional band structures with their reunion and now act as an open collective with shifting musical lineups and vocalists from across the current german-speaking DIY- and Emo scene. Strictly DIY and decidedly oddball, their ever-changing, complex and highly melodic (real fake) emo songs never sound the same. The results are just as gripping as they’re irritating and bemusing for everyone involved.
