For those who have sensitive ears, you might wanna skip tonight because tonight I will be rocking it loud and proud. I have been holding these gems back, but if I hold them in any longer I might puke.
Let´s start this trip with some deadly mushrooms, this song starts so sweet but if you have the balls to sit through it, it really feels like a sick rancidly sweet kiss of death.
IC3PEAK - Kiss Of Death
Now I know last week I said no more clowns, but I just needed to play this clown tonight.
Kim Dracula - Drown
Well let´s stick to a bit of Emo, but lets do it in style, in French Fashion with MDNS.
MDNS - Je cours
Now if you are as dialectic as I am sometimes the next band could have been Rue de Paris. But hell what´s in a name, if you sound like they do?
Rue de Paradis - Seven Drops of Rain
I found so many gems this week, it´s like spring is there and the music scene is flowering this week. And this flower just had to be part of tonight´s show, what a sound.
Tay Temple - Worlds Strongest Drug (Bad Texter)
If you think that was a badass babe, have a look at this lady. She played everything but the drums on this once.
Ancient Waters - Vineta
I shilled these guys not so long ago, and tonight is a perfect moment to give them another little push. This can´t go wrong, great band covering a great band!
GRMSN - Brandon Lee (The 69 Eyes cover)
That brings us so close to the end, once upon a dark night I hope you will revisit us, Dear Reader. Especially after tonight, because this is quite a heavy journey and we are not done yet.
Another little dark gem that has been lying on my shelf because it was just a bit too much for a normal show. But this ain´t normal this is "Loud & Proud."
Dark Horizons - Numb the Pain
Well now your pain is numbed I will go out with a bang, these guys are more than a Rammstein clone and even if you consider them clones they are cloned damn good.
UNIVERSUM25 - Horizont in Flammen

Have Mercy on you Dear Reader this is a hard one to crack so let's light up some hints.
I already mentioned that these guys and girls would never have made the 27 club. Now if that did not give you enough info let´s try this;
yes these songs are oldies but that is not it. The artists were oldies when they first did it
What the fluff are midnight gems?
Somewhere lost in time, trying to escape out of the rabbit hole back into the rat race there is a vacuum..... that´s the place where midnight gems are found.
My Midnight Gems will try to uncover & recover those beautiful songs that nobody ever noticed or might have been forgotten.
Who the fluff am I?
Being a former DJ playing about everything and having an uncompleted study of radio journalism. I have been wanting to do this for years...Thought about it many nights and guess now it´s time to finally take it to the streets.
Hope you enjoyed this well-known wave of fantastic music and that you still feel like joining me on the next Midnight Gems Session coming soon.
