Das Weiße Pferd – OKTOBERFEST
A worm in Pico Be’s ear during a nightly bike ride through Feldmoching. It’s Lou Reed’s Coney Island Baby. Bicycle wheels through empty streets bordered with greenery, cars and Hochhäusern chanting The Glory of Love over and over again. The repetition of the cityscape and the moving lights are intoxicating. The Odd Poet thinks of […]

Shame Over – Murena Murena (2016)
Some albums ask for a laidback listening. Some you can listen to casually, put them in cars or in bars, making people fall in love for the length of one song, making them ask “Wow who’s that?”… Some other albums may seem hermetic when you first taste them, because they need to be listened to […]

Year in Review – 2015 in Munich again
Here we are, at the end of 2015, a completely incredible year. 2015 is the year where the Munich Underground Scene actually became completely tangible to me. I was here from January 22nd to February 4th, and now I’ve been here since November 4th. I had all the time in the world to completely dive into […]

Skläsh – LeRoy (2015)
So here we are, at the beginning of Skläsh, at the beginning of Like a Disease, at the beginning of a 39 minutes journey into LeRoy’s creation. To be honest, as I write these words, I’m still in my first love-phase with Skläsh. The /passionate/ phase. The “I wouldn’t think about cheating on you with […]

Cpt. Yossarian’s Europa in Dub – LaBrassBanda (2015)
So, while I was away, Europa in Dub was released on all the usual platforms. So, of course, I have been playing it to all my open-eared commuters aboard the GendronMobile (because yeah, I test Munich’s new stuff on Montrealers all the time – some people even begin to make links between who’s who now […]

Sarah Gonputh – I’m Still in Love – The Remixes (2015)
If you have followed the Munich Scene Tumblr Action in the last couple of days, you might have noticed that we have all been raving a little about this concept of Munich Scene All Stars. All of a sudden, we just put on a pedestal the usually pretty elusive artists that work in the shadows […]

What comes next? – Dizzy Errol (2015)
What comes next when you release such a total joy of a record? I’ll tell you what comes next. You play that record until your ears bleed and your knees fall under you from too much dancing. Dizzy Errol is one constant, bright blue moon in your sky. He accompanies your nights and shines so […]

Mars etc. by Aloa Input (2015)
Out on March 6, 2015 on Morr Music It doesn’t happen often that I listen to an album and just think : this is it. The perfect balance between a soft and a hard core. This album is all soft lips and rough callouses at the same time. In the same songs. There’s nothing simple […]

BELP feat. Becky Reynolds Band (2015)
The frontman in the synthesizer With his iconic tie and his eight huge gloved hands A headless octopus in a suit. His head is in the clouds Playing serenades under a vectorized moonlight Like melancholic cries for his long gone lover When is Becky coming back? Pam, pa-lam, pa-lam

City of O by Pollyester (2015)
I warned you all about this incoming storm. The new Pollyester album is flying through the atmosphere like a storm of pink and gold glitter. It gets on everything. There’s something properly addictive about this album. It’s shiny. It’s glossy. It’s catchy as hell. It’s stand-alone pieces of perfection that are joined together by The […]
