[DE] Ein Soundtrack für den Aufstand – so beschreibt Lukas Koenig 1 Above Minus Underground, das musikalische Manifest, das er gemeinsam mit zahlreichen Vokalist:innen und Mitmusiker:innen aus den USA, dem UK, Iran und Österreich aufgenommen und im April 2023 veröffentlicht hat. Bei A L'ARME! bringt er die Unruhe stiftenden Klänge erstmals mit Band auf die Bühne: ein Fundament aus massiven Hip-Hop-Beats, Synthesizern und Störgeräuschen, über dem Elvin Brandhi, Dälek und Rojin Sharafi energiegeladene Raps und poetische Reime auftürmen. Ihre Texte drehen sich um Missstände und politische Schieflagen, während Koenig am Schlagzeug, Nik Hummer am Modularsynthesizer und Victoria Shen mit ihrer einzigartigen Fingernagel-Scratch-Technik die Revolte weiter anheizen. Nicht weniger als eine Kampfansage.
[EN] A soundtrack for those invested in unrest – that is how Lukas Koenig describes 1 Above Minus Underground, the musical manifesto that he recorded together with vocalists and musicians from the US, the UK, Iran, and Austria and released in April 2023. At A L’ARME!, he will be bringing these troublemaking sounds to the stage with a full band for the first time ever: a foundation of massive hip-hop beats, synthesizers, and experimental noise, over which Elvin Brandhi, Dälek, and Rojin Sharafi pile up energetic raps and evocative rhymes. Their lyrics revolve around grievances and political imbalances, while Koenig on the drums, Nik Hummer on the modular synthesizer, and Victoria Shen with her one-of-a-kind nail-needle scratch techniques continue to stoke the revolution. Nothing less than a declaration of war.
