Dim Fumes comprises singer and score composer Lukas Zepf (aka No Bloom Now), alongside Marc Landendinger and Luca Christakopoulous (known collectively as the DJ/producer duo Thrived, with releases on Club Qu and Voitax). Together, they channel Berlin’s unique zeitgeist, capturing the city’s pulse between rave culture and a yearning for genuine connection.
Drawing on influences from the early 2010s, such as Moderat, James Blake, and Burial, as well as pioneers of deconstructed club music like Iglooghost, the trio crafts songs that feel equally at home on concert stages and club dance floors. Since forming, they have performed over 15 shows across Germany, including appearances at festivals like Melt, Tarmac, and Kosmos.
After releasing several singles over the summer and fall, December 2025 marked the arrival of the trio’s debut album, ‘Liminal Clouds’. The project explores themes of vulnerability and surreal nostalgia, evoking moments between dusk and dawn in an abandoned cityscape. Their songs merge the hectic and the tranquil, embodying the complex character of their hometown.
