In the crossroads of real live performance as club entertainment presents Musikkrause the debut album of Feindrehstar. The Jena natives have made a life on the stage as a collective over the last 10 years. If you include a number of 7 inches and EP's, their sound is a live concept.
An exhilarating connection of the functional with the ornamental ñ hard working dance music on stage with a house essence and a dose of the hip-hop with a funk & jazz base.
The sextet is composed of the trumpet, saxophone, scratch & samples, bass, percussions, drums, Rhodes & keys and with point blank ideas an interesting sonic garden blooms.
As a unit of virtuoso composers with serious sonic tools Feindrehstar presents on their first LP ìVulgarian Knightsî. The recording took place together with Axel Reinemer and Immo Wischhusen (Flowin IMMO) is Jazzanova Studio in Berlin. The urban arranged rhythm architecture from Michael Baumann (Soulphiction/Jackmate). Thanks to this co production a brilliantly energetic live program is manifest on the vinyl.
The result is a statement: This is a journey into our sound! An album in a reserved spiritual cast, thats complete down to its individual tracks. Spin this record any way you please. (12ì releases and double-LP's are available through Kompakt).
From a pure jammed out playfulness there grew a sparkling conversation between the winds and those with keys ñ sometimes a rugged funk, others a finely-sensed Jazz, and then completely improvised. A music with value added for an urbane, scenic people and for everyone whose heart beats along.
It is the pact between the stage-excesses & a club integrity that Feindrehstar does so well.
