Stadt - Meerstadt (2023) [Hi-Res]

STADT is the musical creation of Fulco Ottervanger (FULCO, Beraadslagen, De Beren Gieren), Simon Segers (De Beren Gieren, MDC III, Black Flower), Joris Cool and Frederik Segers (PJDS, Roland van Campenhout). Since 2013, the band has released three full-length albums, all of which fell under the banner of 'krautpop'.

This time they do something different. For their fourth album 'Meerstadt' the band left for a cozy Dutch coastal town without a plan. The living room overlooking the sea was converted into a recording studio. Animated by the rise and fall of the waves and their own moods, they created a new musical world in just a few days.

Improvisations were given plenty of time and space to grow into characterful songs. STADT means trusting each other, resulting in a balanced, melodic and repetitive excursion that immerses you in an infinite (under)water world in no time. Letting go appears to be the best remedy against the force of the waves and the wind. Land in sight, more insight from STADT.
