"Das Spiel ist enorm aufgekratzt, eine Ruppsche Sternstunde, wenn ihr mich fragt." Bad Alchemy
"Mit Hirn, Charme und Kanone. Ohne Extrawurst. Unprätentiöser Free Jazz. Eh klar virtuos, aber hier dürfen auch der Grunge, der Noise, der Knüppel und der Sumpf." freiStil
They can make quite a fuss in the china shop. But the aim is not to destroy things. It is about creating spaces. It is the air and the hidden silence amidst all the rubble that begets something special. A creative furor comes along with just enough ease to make sure that in the end everything fits together well to form a meandering whole. There is an utopistic‑organic wilderness in this music gaining ground so irreverently that if you are able to enjoy a note, a sound, a beat just for what they are: a note, a sound, a beat, then you will have fun to see the wood for the trees.
