Datashock

Krauter Der Provinz

The musicians: artist collective with changing personnel, founded in Saarlouis in 2003 The music: psychedelic (Krautrock) improvisations How does it sound? "Like a free-folk-informed update on Amon Duul" (The Wire) / "A splendidly righteous motherfucker" (Julian Cope on their album "Pyramiden in Giessen") / "Neo-Hippie-Spook-Folk" (in their own words) Crossed the desert? Check. Seen the pyramids? Check. Whats next? "Krauter der Provinz"... Herbs of the Province. Smoking dope with Edgar Reitz (the man who made Heimat)? A homage to regional cuisine or a celebration of backwoods origins? Absolutely not. But there's safety in ambiguity and a pun a day keeps the critics away. Still, how to get a handle on whats going on here? Can it even be explained? Datashock 2018: Eighty fingers playing, but what are they all up to? Are Datashock in command of their instruments or is it the other way around? What we do know - this is freely improvised music, complete with rattles, rumbles and whistles. Music as a social happening, both in terms of process and outcome, where individual and collective development can thrive - an ecstatic experience! Sheesh! No, really! This much you already knew? Well, no harm in saying it again, is there?!
