About

The Story

Fallen Metropolis is the brainchild of Christian Rütz and his long-time friend and fellow musician, Vladimir Mihajlovic. What began as an experimental music project with the inclusion of friends, painters, and other artists— quickly evolved into something much more—a DIY cassette tape label.

The name “Fallen Metropolis" serves as a nod to the prevailing dystopian nature of urban living, influencing the label's work and shaping its vibrant community.

The impact of Fallen Metropolis extends far beyond the confines of a traditional music label. It represents a movement, a shared vision of celebrating artistic expression and challenging the status quo.

What People Are Saying

“Music for the mind that is adrift through space. Absolutely fantastic.”

“Wow! An elegant combination of natural and urban landscapes! The atmosphere is immersive in freshness and all the dampness is minimalistically seasoned with a synthesizer. Definitely, for me this is the top.”

“Most of Fallen Metropolis artists were absolutely new to me. ‘Konkurs’ by Sunwald, again confirms that this label is growing thanks to its talented musicians and their hard work. I’d highly recommend this release, a superb LP filled with ambient/drone and experimental music variations.”
