Experimental hip-hop meets electropop, gospel, progrock and more

​

After years of playing in bands and collectives, rapper and composer MDM plays the 8 songs of his still to be released first solo album, "And yet it moves", in a live-version with band. Driven, high-speed beats and raps alternate with soft, reflective ballads to form an eclectic journey through different genres and moods, full of musical detail and catchy hooklines.

​

Written as a concept album, we witness a story between two entities that fall in and out of each others favour; hating, fighting, loving - as well as battling over categoric differences on the ideas of a good life. Inner conflict mirroring clashes in broader society. An intimate yet energetic try of turning contemporary ideas and emotions into a piece of art that invites the audience to see, hear, enjoy as well as interpreting and projecting their own ideas onto the scenery.

​

As an ear catching opener, "Four Disturbed Civilians" will lay the foundation of the evening with their authentic and unmistakeable mix of cheerful grooves and melancholic melodies. A humourous and versatile set, the instrumental quartet never fails to explore the boundaries of musical possibilities.
