HACKE, ALEXANDER / PICCIOTTO, DANIELLE DE - Menetekel

Downloadcode,Bonustrack,signed photo. Alexander Hacke and Danielle de Picciotto are something like the dream couple of the German underground scene. De Picciotto moved from New York to Berlin in 1987, became lead singer of the Space Cowboys, co-founder of the Love Parade and one of the initiators of the Ocean Club. In 2001 she met Hacke, the bassist of Einstürzende Neubauten. They became a couple both privately and artistically. The two universal artists gave up their house in 2010 and have since traveled the world to find a home in their sounds. Together they create beautiful, existentialist, acoustic and above all intense soundscapes, interspersed with melancholic, translucent harmonies, heavy bass chords and eclectic electronics. A fascinating universe of sound and emotions. Her new album is called "Menetekel" and it is darker than her last masterpiece "Perseverantia". The title is a word for "writing on the wall" and the artist couple projects the collective despair of the situation of the world. It transforms them into a monumental symphony of whirling sounds and biblical frenzy. Record Label: Potomak Style: Independent
