ELECTRIC OCEAN PEOPLE - CONCRETE & MACHINES
Actually everything as usual. At the port of Hamburg is blowing in a rough wind, at night drunken tourists come to Hamburg's eyesore, the Reeperbahn, a bar and on the hill stroll the usual suspects. Rain, it obviously still a lot. The band also employs the Hamburg Electric Ocean People - but it seems no way that the caused by the weather forced to spend much time in the rehearsal room - something pretty good entails, and that the new publication.
Concrete & Machines is the second release of the Quartet, which is thrown over the house label and incubator on the music market. The EP contains four songs and four remixes of artist friends, such as the Thousand Vows or Fuck Art! Let's Dance! This is new, but as noted, otherwise all is as it always is: to create Electric Ocean People intoxicating sounds again, stagger somewhere between ambient and post-Indie Rock, albeit no drawer. And that's a good thing! The four snapshots resigned create emotional worlds, telling stories without words, in which one finds oneself in which one is drawn and where it feels melancholy, despite the off-flavor and comfortable. Transcendental act of the four new pieces that bring the listener into a state of intoxication, leaving a only a few minutes after the fading of the EP in the reality.
As the debut this is a publication of the highest order. Only one request sets in: The next time then a complete long player! Please!
POLAR BEAR WITH JYAGER - COMMON GROUND
Sebastian Rochford enters Rough Trade in London. Why does he now know not remember exactly. And looking around him a CD into our hands. He knows the artist Jyager Maktwist not, but like the artwork it and so the plate moves at his home in the player. Rochford is currently working on a remix for which it still lacks the vocals. And because all the voice of the Portuguese rapper is just like him in the CD player, he writes Jyager a message The two meet and take on first track.
Rochford, who is a workhorse produces, after the first meeting and over again in his own studio tracks. These pieces are jazz-heavy numbers, but their focus is not primarily put on flashy horn arrangements but to nice flowing beats and drumming. Although in the 20's certainly were no Sythies, understands it Rochford electronic elements to incorporate in such a way that a jazz a fresh wind blowing around our ears. Sometimes he slips into old hip-hop beats, the jazz score, however, can be stable in the songs. Jyager Maktwist told to broken stories in a style that the Hip Hop of the early nineties recalls. Maktwist writes his lyrics also completely autonomously, without having first heard the beat. And yet the two have found common ground. The songs are completely self-contained and act as co-written and produced. So once again buy a CD because of the Artworts - perhaps arises from something big like this!
The Pleasant - FORESTS AND FIELDS
builds very slowly to this publication, guitar, piano, a warm female voice and then this unique masculine boys like voice. Sometimes together, sometimes alone, and always careful to keep the volume at a level that never intrusive and überrumpelnd acts. In the background, then a distorted guitar, but so softly that it only the second time the listeners remember. Then again, just guitar, piano and occasionally a tambourine. The whole thing sounds like a nostalgic two that have made it their task to make the American Folk to come alive once more.
For the female part is for the duo to not unknown, for none other than Amanda Rogers is behind this beautiful voice. Mike Matta at her side that played in various bands of the limelight and cult of personality so far, however, stayed away. Your meeting is not only an asset to every friend quiet sounds but also for the two. In "hippie" style describe the two artists together produced "as if two people were wandering lost in the woods and happen to find each other only to realize they were singing the same song."
penetrates After half of the album, then a by a second guitar and percussion - but still discreet and genuine. Blues take on American folk and roots. What could be misunderstood as a cheap copy turns out to be a pure and unadulterated piece of music that includes a timelessness to the back with one in bygone days. Little pathos and a lot of honesty - I hope it stays this duo resistant!
OBSTACLES - DIVIDUAL
Obstacles are a live band! But not because they present a dynamic and well-staged performance, but rather because they see it as a necessity to present their music on stage. This it has in the past two years a long way and yet it is actually mastered kilometers. Several times it went through Europe to Russia and all in with only two 7 "baggage. Now, finally, the debut long-player of the band available and the Danes have passed the test of fire: Also on board are obstacles a true pleasure.
That has left the band so much time to hear Dividual. The songs are mature and precisely planned to the last detail. The focus is on the various rhythms that reveal themselves in rapid succession without an overrun but that. The basic pattern is set frene guitar virtuoso and a key game, which move away from the rhythm section again and again and alienated, only to come together at the right moments and meter-high sound walls to create. The result is ten songs of epic proportions that can operate completely without vocals. Thomas Feltheim, Morten Clausen. Niels-Peder Hjolund and Jeppe Street Jarlstrom have written plays that were written for a classic rock quartet and still fall from popular and familiar patterns.
Here is revolutionizing Math Rock. And although every single song. No adjustment of the previous track is maintained and yet this is a self-contained work that can be measured with the written word of the pioneers of the genre.
