ANDREAS WAHL
|
|
experimentle band
|
|
|
|
|
|
contemporary jazz, folk, avantgarde, heavy metal
|
|
Five individuals create an explosive mixture between composed and improvised music. A band of established masters from the german jazzscene, who combine selfreliant improvisations, jazz-basics, technical perfection, soundphantasy and avantgarde music - that’s really an “experimentle”! (which means “small experiment” in Swabian!)

Peter Bolte alto sax
|
|
“(Peter Bolte)... not only has his very own alto sax sound, but creates seldom heard, selfreliant improvisations.“
(Gerd Filtgen, Stereo)
|
|
“Fire and phantasy, technique and soundbeautiness - it is all there. Bolte comes from the deep of technical obligations and when he advances to the experimental areas, he doesn’t devote himself to freejazz ideologies, but demonstrates organic developments.”
(Ulrich Olshausen, Hessischer Rundfunk)

“...demanding experimental fare, but with so much humor and technical perfection, that the attentive listening quickly develops to pure enjoyment.”
(Augsburger Allgemeine)
|
|
“(Veit Lange).... plays on high standard with remarkable sltilistic selfreliance, avoidance of cliches and is looking for innovative conclusions....”

Hartmut Kracht double-bass, acoustic bass-guitar
|
|
“As a soloist on the double-bass the prize-holder bursts all borders (...) technique is after all not everything! But with Kracht it is how it should always be, partner of a funny, sometimes even ironic soundphantasy.”
(Westdeutsche Zeitung)
|
|
“In the most promoted tunes experiment and happening are not far: It howls and shrieks, it vibrates and swings, that it is pure happiness.”
(Westdeutsche Zeitung)
|
|
“Hartmut Kracht once more proves(...) as one of the most tasteful double-bass players from germany.”

“The same also can be said about Christoph Hillmann, who bursts every drum-cliche. He smacks on everything and with everything what is found in his radius of action. No matter if it is a frying-pan, a childrens-drum or a grate - his variety of ideas seem boundless.”
(Solinger Tageblatt)
|
|
“(Christoph Hillman)... works for two - to speak - with closed eyes you could believe sometimes a percussionist on stage in addition.”
(Rheinische Post)

|
Andreas Wahl electric and acoustic guitars, fretless-guitar, banjo
|
|
“(...) and there is the Swabian Andreas Wahl with an arsenal of electric and acoustic guitars which he brings into action extremely fascinating.”
(Neue Ruhr Zeitung)
|
|
“There rage passionate guitar-storms, rustle dusty country-sounds, new music is played - but all without loosing sight of the basics of jazz. Stiffen wind from all sides!”
(United Jazz Society)
