The trio Daniel Brandt, Jan Brauer and Paul Frick aka Brandt Brauer Frick worked for no less than two years on their fifth album Multi Faith Prayer Room. As on previous albums, they once again take a layered approach to different musical styles. This time, the trio was partly inspired by
Steve Reich. With many repeating rhythms, using both acoustic drums and drum computers, the trio generates an
… energy in songs that generally remain quiet. As a result, a fine tension brews beneath the surface, which is occasionally broken through. Like the drums, the rest of the instrumentation is a mix of electronic and acoustic instruments. This makes the music dynamic and lively. Additional color is also provided by special guest artists like Mykki Blanco, Sophie Hunger and Azekel. (YvQ)more
