New album: LICHTUNG (release July 14, 2026) hackedepicciotto spent the last 14 years as nomads traveling around the world, always searching for a new home. Thanks to a fortunate coincidence and a generous patron, they have now settled on the outskirts of Berlin. "It was an unexpected end to our journey, but a beautiful new chapter for our creativity." Their new album "Lichtung" (Clearing) is about their new home, which is also their old hometown. "We have basically closed a circle and are back where we started. But the change in us is enormous, and we see Berlin with very different eyes." Sonically, the typical hackedepicciotto drone is still present but has been enriched with electronic sounds, more harmony vocals, and piano melodies. Danielle, who wrote most of their lyrics, decided: "Since we are back in Germany, I thought it was time to incorporate this language more strongly into our work. That’s why most of the lyrics this time are in German." The show on this tour will also feature Danielles's new live visuals. Additionally, they will perform some of their other pieces in English. For over 20 years, Alexander Hacke (formerly of Einstürzende Neubauten) and artist, musician, and filmmaker Danielle de Picciotto (co-founder of the Love Parade) have been developing and refining a symbiotic working method. Deep intuition and creative equality allow both artists the freedom to experiment and evolve. Each of them has been a pioneer from the beginning. Alexander Hacke started experimenting with cassette loops in the early 1980s at age 14 and later joined Einstürzende Neubauten to create music that would influence generations of musicians. Danielle de Picciotto, fascinated by early electronic dance music, founded the Berlin Love Parade in 1989 and later teamed up with Gudrun Gut to create a feminine version of electronic music that was far ahead of its time. In 2001, Hacke and de Picciotto began their collaboration, creating what the duo calls Symphonic Drone: a mixture of industrial beats, electronic sounds with classical harmonies and melodies, enriched with throat singing, hurdy-gurdy, and spoken word. Daniel Miller of Mute describes their music as "a genre of its own, something new and very fascinating." Comparable to a modern musical version of Bonnie and Clyde, they rush from concert to concert, releasing albums at a rapid pace.
