About: Kosmetik Institut

Kosmetik Institut is a Brno-based electronic-guitar duo formed by David and Mikuláš, originally a bedroom project. Their sound draws on 80s new wave - sparse synths and drum machines paired with post-punk guitar riffs and Czech melancholic lyrics. Their third EP *Lhal jsem v motivačním dopise* (I Lied on My Motivation Letter) deals with burnout, the generational gap, and mental health set against the backdrop of office parks.

About: Midnight Swimmers

This Prague five-piece grew from a London project into one of the more compelling acts on the Czech indie scene - their April 2026 debut album Odd Ones Out delivers ten tracks on digital loneliness, inequality and the search for identity, recorded with Polish producer Aleksander Kaczmarek.
