Skodadriver Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 I saw this excellent German band live at the "Alstervergnügen" in Hamburg a few years ago. They are every bit as entertaining in the flesh as in the clip and it was made even more fun by numerous elderly German couples rocking and jiving to the music of their youth. The band were playing on a floating stage on the Alster lake and they mentioned later in their blog that the lead guitarist had been fighting sea-sickness throughout the performance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince1159 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) A trip back to the 90's... Edit: Someone might be able to help me with this,i can't remember for the life of me a track from the 90's that had a woman leaning against the wall of a house (maybe Stately Home) playing guitar and gets into a Karmann Ghia (i think)...

Yes indeed. The drummer is outstanding. (P.S. Thanks for the introduction to Khruangbin who were a new name to me) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the introduction to Khruangbin who were a new name to me) You're welcome. They are very new to me, too. As I said, I was following a link to the tv commercials for coca cola, music by the Who, and this clip was in the side bar. I can't say that the music wows me so much I have to go and buy an album, but it is pleasant enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to my nephew who is a professional drummer and drum teacher the drummer in Khruangbin really IS outstanding so I was only partly joking! I had a rummage around on YT for other stuff by them and found this which is interesting and fills in quite a bit of their background. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the clip you linked to, I did like the one comment, that "metronomes are calibrated to the drummer" and in comments for another clip I saw this gem; "CERN use this drummer to set the time on the atomic clock" Edited September 19, 2020 by Whofan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was having a laugh and I'm glad it amused you. Laura is definitely an eyeful but it just so happens that the drummer is really, really good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lasermonkey Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I thought I'd give Oneohtrix Point Never a listen, as they (actually he) crops up frequently in comparisons with other electronic acts I like. After three albums, I think it's ok, I guess. I can hear hints of Cluster in places, maybe some of Aphex Twin's quieter moments, but nothing coming close to the masters of future-retro/hauntology, Boards Of Canada.
