Press Info:
Back at the Gate of Urban Spree, Crave Tapes presents another stellar line up of live acts and DJs.
We are honored to welcome back the mighty Belarusian post-punk and darkwave band The Violent Youth for their new album release “Tsvety”, out March 20, 2026—celebrating a new chapter in the band’s uncompromising sonic journey.
Known for cold synth textures, driving drum machines, and emotionally charged vocals, The Violent Youth blends melancholic atmospheres with club-focused energy—cementing their place in the contemporary Eastern European underground scene.
The band released their latest album “Na Igle” in 2024 via Atroffact Records, followed by tours across Europe and Mexico. Now they return with a new album, ready to present it live on stage.
Crave Tapes is also very proud to host the iconic PSYCHE band – bringing a true piece of electronic music history to the stage. Formed in 1982 by Darrin Huss and Stephen Huss, Psyche is a legendary 80s electronic band blending darkwave, EBM, and synthpop. With haunting vocals and driving sequences, they have shaped the underground scene for over four decades.
Crave Tapes founder Desolate Discotheque will play a special hybrid set with live vocals and drums right after the concerts. The aftershow party will feature DJ sets by Crave Tapes regulars Charlie Vaux and Lush Lab. K3LLR hoster Electric Visionary will take care of the first hours before the concerts.
Ticket Presale on Resident Advisor and regular tickets at the door.
See you on the dark side!
