mit candie hank produzierten sie so etwas wie desert-polka, hymnischen hip hop hingegen mit modeselektor und den puppetmastaz. wir hšren mitrei§enden neo postrock in kooperation mit tortoise oder laetitia sadier, radiotaugliches songwriting mit eric d. clark, gebrochenen funk in kooperation mit den eigens wiedervereinigten funkstšrung und einen astreinen r&b-ohrwurm mit den junior boys. so ist 21 again eine ode an die freude und freunde der band und gleichzeitig ein manifest des stŠndigen dialogs, eine feier der vielschichtigkeit.
