Event ID: MS63423

Sat, Mar 14, 2026 | 6:00 AM - 6:40 AM

Venue: Elysium

Summary

Rising rapidly within the global indie scene, Frankfurt Helmet has emerged as a definitive voice in Chinese independent electronic music. As one of China’s most innovative trans-media projects, the duo—comprising acclaimed drummer Romna and sound artist Yufei—merges their diverse backgrounds to push the boundaries of electronic soundscapes. Their sonic identity is defined by a striking contrast: the ethereal, atmospheric depths of modular synthesis layered over cold, precision engineered mechanical rhythms. Having graced the stages of major international festivals and art exhibitions, Frankfurt Helmet continues to redefine the intersection of live performance and sound art on a global scale.
