Mono? Tape?

Gewollt alt klingender Vintage-Sound? Pseudo-Oldschool-Grooves? Musikalische Möchtegern-Retro-Nostalgie? Ja, genau das - oder zumindest in Teilen! Sieben MusikerInnen, die mit ihrem Musikgeschmack gefangen sind in vermeintlich besseren musikalischen Zeiten, sich diese zurücksehnen, doch auch um die aktuellen Grenzen des soundästhetisch Machbaren wissen. Raus kommt ein frischer Sound irgendwo zwischen Soul, Funk und Indie-Rock. Irgendwie schon 60er, aber eben auch nicht ganz. Und um ehrlich zu sein … in stereo. Egal ...

... Monotape!

BOWMAN. A post-punk band from Berlin, expressing emotional brutality.

BOWMAN are Darragh (bass), Benny (drums), Christoph (guitar) and Giuseppe (vocals and guitar).

Marrying post-punk and indie rock harmonies, heavy and distorted guitars, memorable hook lines,introspective lyrics and the occasional psychedelic riffs, BOWMAN’s sound takes influence from artists like Interpol, The Black Keys or Pavement.

What happens when Elliott Smith’s love of harmony combines with Tropicalismo’s delight for sonic madness and then appears in the mystical twilight of Twin Peaks? You get the best-kept secret in the German indie scene: Fabian Simon & The Moon Machine.

The quartet, formed around jack-of-all-trades leader Fabian Simon, wryly refers to its style as „utopian Kraut-Folk“, and that’s exactly how it sounds: like a wild mélange of 60s psychedelia and classical chamber music, with songwriting from Nick Drake to Syd Barrett. Spacey synths juggle with desert guitars while Hammond organs meet rumbling surf drums and ask for a tipsy waltz. It’s sensitive, funny, poetic and always surprising.

This enigmatic mixture is carried by Fabian Simon’s baritone voice, sometimes fragile in timbre, sometimes deep with impulsive emotion in painting beautiful crooked pictures of love, death and the absurd in-between. Live, the band’s latticework arrangements, extraordinary sounds and a noticeable joy in musical experimentation make for a touching, anarchic and essential experience.
