RIP Swirl

About
A hazy midsummer night’s dream full of longing and warmth, an almost-forgotten coming-of-age film brimming with nostalgia, a date on the other side of town: In his shimmering productions as RIP Swirl, Luka Seifert sets to music moments that slowly etch themselves into the listener’s memory. Trip hop and dream pop, indie rock and hypnotic melodies blend together on his albums – “Blurry” (2022) and “Perfectly Blue” (2024) – to form a modern interpretation of shoegaze that consistently invites you to drift away. There’s a hint of Slowdive to be heard, influences ranging from Guitar to Drab City, and the certainty that dreams reveal more about reality than we’re often willing to admit. With fresh material such as the single “Be My” (2026), RIP Swirl is making his Reeperbahn debut this year and inviting you on a journey that will finally blur the lines between a live concert and pure imagination. Be sure not to oversleep.
