Tutti Dilemma are bringing music, performance and social commentary to the MQ water basin at the Hof Kunst Fest.

Humorous and poetic, yet direct and vivid, the content—drawn from real life—reflects a zeitgeist rooted in capitalism, now also on display at the Hof Kunst Fest. The deliberately chosen grotesque and humorous exterior ingeniously masks the bitter core of ignorance inherent in Western exploitation systems. What does this look like on stage? Circus artist, performance artist, and musician Gaffa Galaktika (Julia Makoschitz) takes the mic, plays bass, and delivers an energetic performance alongside her longtime multi-instrumentalist colleague Flitzmasterzero (Moritz Frank) at the microscopic plastic keys of his two mini Casio synths.

The music by Tutti Dilemma is the common thread running through the show. It serves not only as a soundscape, but also as the driving force behind the story. The music blends seamlessly with the choreography and scenes. The sound is shaped into their distinctive, self-defined genre – ‘Melodic Full Power Synth Rap’n’Roll’ – through a combination of Tutti Dilemma’s signature Casio keyboard beats and dynamic, symphonic melodic arrangements with catchy hooks. This translates as: energetically rousing, lyrically well-crafted, danceable, catchy… Always adhering to the KIS rule (Keep it Simple) – that is the typical Tutti Dilemma sound.
