Quite a supergroup line-up, me thinks. They went into the Faust studio for one week as part of a project called ,Spielwiese Scheer to work on an album. They only played together once at the Faust festival Klangbad. A drummer, a wind instrument player and two persons responsible for all things with keyboards. The music sounds partly improvised, based loosely around the drumming of Liebezeit. In one track,The Thrower a sequencer drivenbackdrop provides that everybody can improvise loosely, but itsthe weakest track here. When things are shorter, they are alsomore coherent, such as in ,Lovely Ending, with a spooky bassriff, electronically treated fl utes and far away electronics. Or the joyful opening of ,Glassbamboo, the fi lmic, eastern sounding, Under Water (although perhaps a bit long) and the ambient atmospheres of ,Das Boot. Six of the seven pieces are very nice, offering a variety of moods and styles and is executed with some great care. And all of that in the matter of one week.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53556508557686,"sku":"4250137239316","price":15.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_13035559_1526320_20241024095038.jpg?v=1729841421","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/4250137239316-spielweise-2","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
