*hinterhofjargon*, das debüt von celo & abdi, machte 2012 unmissverständlich klar: geht es um guten deutschen straßenrap mit viel wortwitz und exquisiten beats, dann gibt es kein vorbeikommen an den beiden frankfurtern. mit dem im frühjahr 2014 erscheinenden nachfolger haben celo & abdi noch einen draufgesetzt. das album hört auf den namen *akupunktur* - denn jeder track, jeder verse, jede line, jedes wort, ja, jede silbe ist wie der stich mit einer spitzen nadel, die eine reaktion beim hörer hervorruft. celo & abdis eigene sprache, ihr eigener humor und ihr geschmack für erstklassige beats machen -akupunktur- zu einem mehr als würdigen nachfolger. *akupunktur* erzählt direkt aus dem leben der beiden. celo & abdi nehmen den hörer mit in die sozialen brennpunkte, sie lassen einem am nachtleben auf den straßen frankfurts teilhaben - dabei rappen die beiden so bildlich und präzise, dass jeder der songs einem kleinen film gleicht. der sound des albums erinnert an das -mietwagentape-, jenem mixtape also, mit dem celo & abdi straßenrap aus ffm wieder auf die karte zurückbrachten. die beats kommen von haus- und hofproduzent m3, der wieder einmal ganze arbeit geleistet und sich selbst übertroffen hat. weitere produktionen haben die bounce brothas, abaz, bazzazian, reaf und farhot beigesteuert. die limitierte dopple-vinyl-edition erscheint jetzt im klappcover mit poster und cd.

die wild beasts veröffentlichen ihre zweite single aus dem aktuellen album -present tense- mit drei hochwertigen remixversionen als limitierte whitelabel 12inch. die midtempo-nummer entwickelt sich nach ruhigem beginn zu einer regelrechten hymne, die vom treibenden beat zusammengehalten wird und exemplarisch für das wohlbekannte gefühl aus zärtlichkeit, extrovertiertheit und perkussivem drive steht, das die wild beats seit jeher repräsentieren. trotzdem verpassen sie nicht die gelegenheit, sich auch auf diesem song weiterzuentwickeln. am stärksten wird dies wohl durch die parts deutlich, die zum mitsingen einladen und so -a simple beautiful truth- quasi zu einem selbstläufer bei live-performances machen. neben der albumversion des songs finden sich auf der whitelabel 12inch remixes von lone, darum und east indie youth!

corbu are an electronic, indie-rock band from brooklyn, new york spearheaded by producer and multi-instrumentalist jonathan graves. corbu are jonathan, todd hoellerman (drums, keys), amanda scott (synths, percussion), julian ferraldo (guitar, keys) and brian murphy (bass, keys). named after french architect le corbusier, the band has a strong creative aesthetic. graves writes the music from visual ideas, which he translates into sound. corbu songs are often heard partially or entirely in dreams, and are influenced by films, physical spaces and a childhood love of nature and science fiction. and it works. corbus music is beautifully crafted, taking the listener on a journey from day to night, through exhilarating sunsoaked sonic landscapes to land softly on the surface of the moon. jonathan began singing and playing different instruments at age nine, and eventually fell in love with samplers and their ability to bend conventional sounds into something abstract and new.
