JESUS \u200b\u200bMIGUEL MARCOS - 24/11/2007 21:31 Einstürzende Neubauten The Germans are one of the most respected experimental groups on the international scene. They were one of the key groups of Mute, pioneer label industrial rock and techno-pop lso early 80's, where he also played for Depeche Mode.
If your creative path has been paid to risk and always cutting edge, now open in the field of experimentation to the way they distribute their music. For five years running through the Support Project. What is? His fans finance the production of the album and in return, receive benefits and the opportunity to attend the recording, concert tickets and, of course, the CD when the work is done. This is the case Alles Wieder Offen, who has just been published. We spoke with bassist Alexander Hacke.
After 25 years doing music, what motivates them to continue working together? Project Supporter with fans is helping us to find that motivation, in addition to force to maintain discipline. This project via the Internet encourages us to experience in this field and has given us the impetus to work hard over the past five years. In the last two years we have recorded ten albums.
What kind of discipline? When you work for your fans, you make a promise to each of them. No middlemen. They lend us money for the record, are individuals who love what they do. Besides, can follow the creative process see us in the studio via webcams. Without discipline would not be possible. Come on, we always point to the study and not much surf (laughs).
"The fans are part of the creative process? I would not be so blunt, but somehow they are present. For example, there are times when you take a long time working with a song that it is finally parked. The fans have seen you work on that song and over time you are asked to retrieve it, because they liked. And even give you ideas on the song itself, telling you why you should not be ruled out. Is there a song on this album, she survived thanks to the fans.
also enjoy certain privileges, right? Yes, we did a concert where we invited fans around the world to come to Berlin to join the action. We ended with a chorus of over a hundred people (see photo). In this case, physically involved in music. How
recorded ten albums in two years? with discipline. We have worked 200 days a year. Eight of those records belong to the Musterhaus series, which are essentially experimental works, music research. You have to think of it as a theater. On stage you can see the main disc, Alles Wieder Offen and then the wings and the adjacent practice rooms are the rest of the discs.
addition, the group moves songs every month, right? Yes tenth album is called 'Jewels' and contains the songs that have been composing and uploading to the Internet every month, just for the fans. Compositions are created in a very peculiar.
What is that? Well, first we have a deck of 600 cards. On the other hand, Blixa Bargeld [former singer and guitarist of the band Nick Cave] is listening to old tapes of the band, with recordings discarded. And she pointed at each letter details As you listen, "Unruh begins", "Ritmo four five", "Something organic, long-Note" ... Things like that. Then, each group member takes three cards, looks and runs what the cards say. It is an illogical strategy, but very interesting. It forces you to do something completely different from what you would do naturally.
The fact that Blixa Bargeld has left the Bad Seeds Nick Cave, what has affected your group? Well, now you have more time for Einstürzende Neubauten. The Bad Seeds lot and also working out a lot on tour, we've come out ahead.
Berlín es una ciudad muy distinta a la ciudad que vio nacer a Einstürzende Neubauten. ¿Cómo es la ciudad hoy en día? Bueno, las ciudades donde está el Gobierno están regidas por leyes completamente distintas al resto de ciudades. Hay más seguridad, además de que el turismo, los negocios y el capitalismo están más presentes que en cualquier otro lugar. Creo que Berlín vive de las rentas del pasado, pero todo lo que era genial se está apagando. Por ejemplo, la escena de clubs que produjo grandes obras de arte visual ya no existe. Ahora es muy difícil encontrar un local de ensayo o un estudio de grabación, incluso sitios donde tocar. Ahora la gente sólo habla and does nothing. Berlin's reputation is enough for some to continue making money. But if you look inside, nothing is happening.
Is there more bands that have done something similar to Project Supporters? Yes, the Scots Marillion. Apparently, they had to stop touring because they did not sell enough tickets. One fan began to raise money to bring to his city and he succeeded. David Lynch can make music and support him through his foundation. The difference is that he works from month to month. With only pay once Neubauten ... and then leave you alone (laughs).
What is your opinion about the method used by Radiohead to release new album? I like the gesture, although it is nothing new. It's a way to show the music industry what is happening. I think it will be a drastic change in the music industry in the coming year. The industry is trying to regain the power they had, but that's not going to happen. In the end only be a large multinational. Einstürzende Neubauten

Since its birth in the eighty-first on the ashes of punk training: Crisis - Death in June has been much talk. But their lineup changes-Pearce is the only permanent member since 1986 - and the occasional misunderstanding, with more or less right, on its ideological content, their quality and influence on the music of the past quarter century is indisputable. 
David Tibet and Douglas P. 
Laibach is known abroad also to those people who know Slovenia just by name, even that you are not a mainstream band which would prostitute yourselves to media. So where from comes your cult status? 
'Patria Granite ' is the second album from this Portuguese folk training. A band formed a decade ago and for a very particular, a circumstance reflected in his music. Have a personal style away from the normal fees of darkfolk Europe. Their songs combine traditional instrumentation and folkrórico medieval court with a powerful rhythmic foundation that gives them great strength. 
The background to the work of these Portuguese is the defense of military culture, the forts were one of the towns settled in the Iberian Peninsula before the arrival of the Romans through their use of Miranda letters-an officially recognized language spoken in Portugal and Miranda del Duero region, as well as certain elements indigenous to the region and in this case granite, very present in the landscapes of northwestern Spain. Curious and interesting. 
In the 80's were pioneers of experimental music and one of the managers in baptizing Industrial music. In the 90's with the fall of the wall, made some affordability and load their melodic compositions without losing an ounce of originality. In recent years, with the entrance of the XXI century and the technological revolution that the new era has brought, have not missed an opportunity to apply their conscious and lucid work of the latest developments. 
After recording dozens of cuts in recent years, spread over the Internet between their 'supporters' comes their new album Alles Wieder Offen ' . A genius in that Blix and company have made it clear that despite the freshness lost quarter century. Throughout the album there is room for everything. For structures and chaotic percussion that characterize them from the beginning, the discreet flashes of pop and more than a nod to some of the subjects reported that they respect the scene in the 80. A jewel essential. 
addition, the group moves songs every month, right? Yes 
For the first time I have to strongly recommend a collection in this section. Several items on the agenda this week come from it. British monthly magazine 'Judas Kiss' captured in this CD the substance of the musical spirit that tries to reflect on each of their numbers.
