Deltawelle – “Schatten”

Deltawelle just released their single “Schatten”, and it’s another step for the band that began when Franz Schneeweiß and Barney Riley connected while working on separate music projects. After starting out in Berlin and later settling in Leipzig, the two artists joined forces and started shaping a sound inspired by modern New Wave and indie music.

“Schatten” brings a reflective mood while still moving forward with steady energy. The song looks at the pressure many people experience while trying to keep up with the fast pace of modern life, and one line from the track paints a clear picture of that idea, describing a shadow running ahead while the person remains behind the future. It is the kind of image that connects easily with listeners because many people recognize that feeling of trying to keep up with where life is going.

The single also connects with the band’s upcoming album “Wir sind Staub im Kosmos”, giving listeners a small preview of the direction Deltawelle are exploring right now. The band is also celebrating the release with a show at Kramladen in Vienna before heading out to play dates in Prague, Brno, Dresden, and Leipzig.
