Maximilian 86
lends his voice to all those who only function in everyday life, even though something has long since broken in them. Between German rap and melodic hooks, he processes pressure, loss and longing and describes the feeling of becoming invisible in a timed world.
DJane G STYLE – Kreuzberg in blood, Berlin in sound.
With energetic sets, urban beats and modern club vibes, she brings the right mix of hip-hop, German rap and electronic sounds to the stage.
Her style is unique, her energy direct and her feeling for the crowd unmistakable. This is exactly what makes DJane G STYLE the perfect sound for a convention where tattoo culture, urban lifestyle and music come together.
Turn up the music. Feel the vibe.
The CHASING Tattoo Wipes
have been specially developed for use during tattooing. They are particularly soft, lint-free and consist of two differently structured sides – for gentle wiping on irritated skin and effective cleaning at the same time.
Due to the high absorbency, significantly less material is required than with classic paper towels. For smaller tattoos, a single wipe is often sufficient. Many artists also report that wiping is noticeably more pleasant for their customers as a result.
Less friction. Less waste. More comfort when tattooing.
