The album 'Lang Tang' by trumpeter Matthias Lindermayr displays a myriad of influences, from Krautrock à la Can to Björk's electro-pop, from Miles Davis to the Nordic melancholy of Matthias Eick. All of this is immersed in Matthias Lindermayr's music.

Lindermayr has an ear for vigorous harmonies and unexpected changes of moods. With strong momentum the pieces are captivating, often by means of an ingeniously simple theme, which draws you in.

Matthias Lindermayr brought together some outstanding artists for his quintet: The Pakistan-born guitarist Azhar Kamal - co-producer of the CD - lets his boundless musical horizon, which reaches from sound installations, theatrical music to experiments in classical music flow in unobtrusively.

The Munich-based keyboardist Roberto Di Gioia plays the grand piano only. After years with Klaus Doldinger's Passport, electro-sound fiddlings and the fun duet with Wigald Boning it impresses to hear Di Gioia's great subtlety for the acoustic instrument again.

The bass foundation is delivered by Andreas Kurz on the acoustic bass - wooden and clear, no effect is superimposed on his earthy groove. Drummer Andi Haberl lets his full personality enter into the music. Playing the drums with the indie-rock band The Notwist and with many jazz groups he gives Lindermayr's music perfectly balanced, vibrant beats.
