H I N F O R T
...is a solo project from Cologne, Germany, crafting soundscapes between Post-Punk and Darkwave.
Founded in October 2024, hinfort is defined by its dark and emotional soundscapes – driven by cold bass riffs, atmospheric synths, and a melancholic, deep vocal line.

This one’s close to my heart: My debut LP ‘no way out’ is out now - released Oct. 17 - exactly one year since I put out the very first single of the same name.
Together with Young & Cold Records we pressed a limited run of black & colored vinyl + CDs.

philosophy
This is a DIY solo project – I love crafting a complete body of art, both visually and acoustically - From songwriting to recording, writing lyrics, mixing, mastering, artwork, design, booking, social media content & ads.
All songs were written in a small studio/rehearsal space in Cologne, Germany – late at night, in total isolation. When the first song, “no way out”, was released in October 2024, the online response was very strong & positive, which inspired me to create more songs.
And here we are – one full album and two collaborations later, all within less than a year. Reaching over 40k monthly listeners on Spotify and connecting with a vivid, ever-growing community on Instagram, Facebook & Youtube. Now it’s time to take the stage and perform these songs live – to sing them together with the fans I’ve gathered from all around the world through streaming on various platforms.
So far I shared the stage with amazing bands such as Bragolin, Traitrs, She Past Away, The Spoiled and other vicious acts. I love working with people who share the same spirit and the drive to carry things all the way, with a minimalist attitude to get things rolling.

quotes
“Hinfort is the solo project of Flo, and his debut single “No way out”, released just a few days ago, is a melancholic earworm with addictive potential. We’re excited to see where the journey will lead and hope for many more tracks of this caliber.”
“The track (no way out) has a late night dark post punk atmospheric, blended the haunted quality of Joy Division with some of the modern elements of bands like Molchat Doma. It sounds like you’re strolling through a city late at night, with no better company than your thoughts.”
“Catchy melodies, simple but resonant lyrics, great atmosphere, just great. i've been waiting to grab the full album for a while now and it's finally coming out. i'm very glad i stumbled upon no way out randomly on youtube one day. Favorite track: in silence.” - toastington

my playlists
In early 2025, I started a dark playlist with the intention of featuring young talent and connecting with other bands and artists in the scene.
What began as a side-project has since grown into one of the biggest and most beloved Darkwave/Post-Punk playlists on Spotify.
The playlist is curated personally by me on a daily basis, and I love discovering songs from acts all around the globe.
In September 2025 we reached 10,000 followers.
