Emerging from the vibrant music scene of Berlin, the band Haus F is setting the stage for something remarkable with their debut EP, “Sternstunde.” The focus track, “Halb so wild,” delves into the excitement and awkwardness of burgeoning romance, embodying the thrill that often accompanies young love.
Haus F is made up of four talented members, Per, Leo, Alex, and Yannick, who initially formed their bond in high school music courses and a brass band, where saxophones, trumpets, and electric guitars became the medium through which they discovered their passion. It wasn’t long before they realised that their shared interest in music could lead to something more significant, and indeed, they have transformed that spark into an electrifying debut.
The release of “Sternstunde” marks a pivotal moment in their journey, which has already seen considerable success despite being in its infancy. With just four singles under their belt, Haus F managed to sell out their first show at Lido, a testament to their burgeoning popularity. Their social media presence, especially through entertaining and engaging clips featuring their vibrant personalities, has captivated audiences on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, racking up hundreds of thousands of views and eager comments asking when their music will be available for streaming.
“Halb so wild,” in particular, captures the essence of those nerve-wracking initial phases of getting to know someone. The lighthearted lyrics portray a relatable scenario where both characters find themselves a little out of balance with their feelings, even igniting the wrong end of a cigarette in their excitement. The phrase “halb so wild,” which translates to “not so wild,” encapsulates the playful yet anxious energy of their experiences, revealing a slice of life that resonates with many.
The band’s sound combines modern indie pop with relatable themes that reflect the experiences of their generation. They have already made an impact with their first single, “Lärm,” which reached number 10 on the Spotify Daily Viral 100. This track laid down the groundwork for their debut vinyl release, which sold out in just 10 hours—a clear indication of their growing fanbase and the anticipation surrounding their music.
As one of my personal favourite newcomers of 2026, Haus F is unmistakably on the rise, blending catchy melodies with lyrics that speak directly to the hearts of their peers. With each release, they’re more than just a band; they represent a voice for young people navigating the trials and tribulations of love and life in the modern world. Keep an eye on Haus F as they continue to evolve and captivate listeners everywhere.
