Details

STABIL ELITE is a young band from Düsseldorf. In the last three years, Lucas Croon, Nikolai Szymanski and Martin Sonnensberger have created a cosmos of driving bass lines, danceable rhythms, floating pads and shimmering electric guitars. Using repetitive lyrics with double meanings, analogue synths and icy cold clackering computers, they revive Krautrock and the avant-garde moments of the German New Wave. But not only this band reprocesses the sound of Kraftwerk, Can, Neu!, it manages to keep its own and fresh identity and the German press is all over it: „Aufreizende Mischung aus unterkühlter Intellektualität und Groove, aus Avantgarde-Détachement und Tanz, aus Geist und Körper.“ - SPEX „So eleganten Pop hat man von dort seit langem nicht mehr gehört.“ - TAZ „Stabil Elite haben ein sehr gutes Album gemacht, das manchen so begeistern wird, dass er oder sie vielleicht gar nicht weiß, was eigentlich genau das Erfreulichste an dieser Platte ist.“ - FAZ PLEASE NOTE: You do not have to understand German to enjoy this gig! KUSTON BEATER is Luxembourg's local production archeologist. His name derives as you might have noticed from the famous actor/director Buster Keaton. Why? Because on stage, he prefers not to be too much of an expressive guy. That doesn't mean that his music doesn't make you move your hips in a quite rythmic way. Working with samples from music libraries from the 60s up to the 80s and other obscure stuff, this man knows how to generate, not IDM but dancable and intelligent dance music.
