Krautfuzz

https://mirrorworldmusic.bandcamp.com/album/mwm-rough-1

This trio started out playing improvisational fuzzkraut-ish sessions in November 2022 after Imari Kokubo, Dirk Dresselhaus, and Derek Shirley had unavailingly planned to hook up with each other individually for a couple of years.
 As each of them is involved in an extended variety of music (Vladislav Delay Quartet, die ANGEL, Schneider TM, faust, Piratezombiedog, Monno, The Still, Hi-Speed Dubbing, etc.), the premise is to boil down stylistic concepts to their essence by playing loud, time-transcending music without a safety net and giving some extra attention to communication in-between each other as well as to the individual subconsciousness. krautfuzz is embossed by an angular-futuristic tension, spanning from fuzzed-out neo-psych-rock to abstract, heavily processed minimalism, and is open at the fringes. fuzzkraut 3 was recorded as the first piece of the second session they’ve played together.

Tavare

Tavare, originally performing under the moniker Aidan Baker Trio, is a newly formed Berlin-based trio playing stripped-down slowcore, dirge-pop. The band consists of Aidan Baker, originally from Canada but based in Berlin for over a decade, who makes guitar-based music ranging from ambient/experimental to post-rock to drone-jazz, both solo and with various groups, mostly notably the dreamsludge duo Nadja; Tristen Bakker, also from Canada, who makes soft-noise, prog, ambient and punk music as a solo artist and with groups such as VROUW! and Otolitos; and Angela Muñoz, a musician, dancer and performer from Spain, who plays with several groups including nunofyrbeeswax, Vrouw and (also with Aidan) Hypnodrone Ensemble.
