Catalog Number: PAMPA042 Color: Black Format: 7" UPC: 4251804183246 DJ Koze, Arnim Teutoburg-Weiss aka arnim, and the Dusseldorf Dusterboys enchant with a touching homage to Holger Biege - one of the legendary architects of East German soul. DJ Koze once again proves his unparalleled sense for the extraordinary. Around the line "Du hast erzahlt, gelacht / Mir gezeigt, wie schon du bist" from Holger Biege's 1978 song "Bleib doch", Koze weaves a small masterpiece, infused equally with nostalgic depth and futuristic elements. Arnim Teutoburg-Weiss aka arnim (frontman of the iconic Beatsteaks) opens our hearts with his heavenly radiant voice. With full sincerity - pure and straightforward - he sings the love declaration of a lifetime. Floating on a cloud, the Dusseldorf Dusterboys sprinkle lyrical stardust with their brilliant harmonies - fluffy and bizarre at the same time. It feels as if this cosmic quartet boarded a time machine and returned to the present to plant the essence of days gone by into today's matrix. "Wie schon du bist" is not just a tribute to Holger Biege's work, but a loving bow to his entire musical legacy. It is an anthem to the timeless magic of music and the enduring power of love that connects us all. Koze, arnim and the Dusterboys have created something truly unique here: a gem--a homage, a time travel, and a love letter all in one. Music can indeed be something magical. AA "Amor," a dandelion of a song, was created in collaboration with Brazilian singer Cesar Lacerda. It is an acoustic love letter in its purest form--warm, crackling, and everlasting.
