new band name, new lp, the former max graef band toured and worked on new music all year. musical progress, and the impression of not enough edge and rawness in a lot of recent music, inspired and motivated a majority of the recording. the band has grown as a unit and wrote a lot of material together this year in late night sessions. during 2 weeks of recording the new songs in the studio the goal was to try all sorts of instruments, amps and effects and be open to any combination of sounds. furthermore, they and engineer lutz fahrenkrog-petersen tried to capture and maintain the raw feeling of the live recordings using almost exclusively analog pedals and racks as well as keeping the editing of the recordings to a minimum. although bands like et cetera (wolfgang dauner), embryo or xhol have heavily infuenced max graef and his band, the result turned out very original ranging from distorted jazz-rock to experimental soul, electronic percussion workouts to free sound experiments and psychedelic rock. with some tracks being around 14 minutes long, it is better to let the music speak for itself though.

on the this latest release from power vacuum, a motley selection of inmates gather once more to deliver a new seminar on the mechanics of meltdown. beyond the zone of fruitless intensity lies ever more exhaustive trailer park visionaries blasting out wreck beats, a sound futuristic yet primitive like a turbo charged shire horse. peering through the heavily worked over fug, we sift through the transphonic ashes of technos blast furnace to retrieve these molten ingots and sling them into a disenfranchised cassette player

ecuador s rising son, nicola cruz, returns to multi culti with cantos de vision, a truly visionary ep backed by remixes from jaja, argentinian uji, and multi culti s own thomas von party. one of the core artists in multi culti s diverse catalog of globally-inspired dance music, nicola cruz is deservedly becoming the poster-boy for a new wave of producers that fuse indigenous sounds with internationally professional production, creating something entirely new, sonically. it s a genre that multi culti ambassadors dreems & thomas von party refer to as folklorica, a psychedelic replanting of folkloric roots, and nowhere is it more skilfully executed than on nicola s tracks. following up on his debut lp for latin america s indie powerhouse, zzk records, the return to multi culti sees cruz sharpen his focus toward igniting the downtempo dance-floors that have slowly been gaining ground in clubs and festivals recently. this new club sound is at the fore on lead track tzantza, already an integral part of nicola s live shows and dj sets at festivals like sonar and mutek.

„das ende der beschwerde“ ist popmusik mit großem schallraum, teilweise mit tatsächlicher, live-im-studio aufgenommener band, teilweise mit imaginierter gruppe, der man im kopf selbst die köpfe aufsetzen kann. „das ende der beschwerde“ ist eine ende-platte wie „lieder vom ende des kapitalismus“ (2006), es ist eine lieder-platte, weil zwölf lieder drauf sind (so wie auf „vierzehn lieder“ (2001) vierzehn lieder drauf waren), aber vor allem ist es eine problemlöse-platte. pop tut dies, pop tut das, hat man oft genug gehört – aber was pop eben wirklich immer tut, wenn er gut ist: eine utopie aufwerfen. möglichkeiten formulieren, unsere geschichte weiterspinnen.
