||| NO , it’s not that they’d take down whole quarters .
||| NO , it’s not that they’d focus on those showy highbrow “Gründerzeit” ( 1870s - 1890s ) tenements with their plaster- ornaments depicting “antique” sybmols of wealth and power . ( 1070 , Zollergasse )

OUT NOW : Swiss “Ritual Groover” NIK BÄRTSCH’s New Album @ ECM - HOLON . Even though we still miss the genuine strength and 
austerity of the early independent releases RONIN | MOBILE , we find some very interesting developments to discover : The heavy momentum which suddenly arises out of the well- known repetitive patterns , the jazz- snare breaking it’s way through the accoustic masquerade of ZEN , funky moments of a relentless bass , and … believe it or not : Melodical Harmonies arising rather from the MIDDLE than from the FAR east . GET SOME IMPRESSIONS , TOUR DATES & VIDEOS @ MYSPACE . |||
