"Berlin needs more risk-taking. Top Model is up for risk-forward productions and riding a line that is intentionally unstable. We could all really use a break from safe bets and overly-reduced concepts. If you look at what's happening in Berlin live music: many events are put on by corporate promoters and many artists are represented by corporate agencies. The independent creators - the ones who would pool together and make something out of passion - are less present every year in larger-scale events."
"Yves Tumor is set to deliver a rare solo performance, known for their emotional and cinematic sound that pushes the boundaries of experimental rock. This exclusive show will be their only live performance for 2025. COUCOU CHLOE, a key figure in the NUXXE collective, will present her dark club sound that has redefined electronic aesthetics across Europe's underground scenes. SUUTOO, a multidisciplinary artist, will bring a blend of music, performance, and spoken word, crafting immersive experiences that explore transformation and identity."
Top Model Berlin launches on November 22, 2025 at Metropol Berlin as a cultural platform blending live performance, design, and community within an Art Nouveau venue. The debut lineup features Yves Tumor, COUCOU CHLOE, and SUUTOO in non-standard performance formats. The project responds to a gap in Berlin’s live music by prioritizing risk-forward productions and elevating independent creators who are increasingly absent amid corporate-promoter-dominated events. The event aims to invigorate the live scene, foster creative exchange, and deliver emotionally charged, cinematic, dark-club, and multidisciplinary immersive performances.
