How about you forget for a moment all the things you thought you knew about Saroos, okay? First of all, let"s forget about all the other projects these guys are part of. Why? Because thinking of The Notwist, Driftmachine, Lali Puna, Tvii Son, to name "only" half a dozen things, might be misleading in this case. What"s more, please make sure to forget the fact that they"re mostly filed under "instrumental," "post-rock dub," or "kraut-flavored indie-tronica," you know, all that. And most importantly, let"s forget that they"re a closed, three-minded system: a fixed and fully committed entity of three. No more! Known to reinvent themselves in less drastic ways, Christoph Brandner, Max Punktezahl and Florian Zimmer, have opened the floodgates to COLLABORATION - making things open, porous, different, new, in many ways, on their quietly explosive latest album "Turtle Roll". Announced by 2021 singles "Tin & Glass" feat. Ronald Lippok and aptly titled "Frequency Change" feat. Leila Gharib aka Sequoyah Tiger, the sixth full-length sees the Berlin threesome add another handful of vocal guests along the way - thus turning into shape-shifting full bands and/or temp quartets, perfectly at home in about as many genres as there are tracks on the LP.[info sheet from distr.]
