Starting with Space Rock in the late 70ies, meanwhile we are really "no-stylers" - just letting the sound develop itself while playing. Most tracks are out "of the blue" ("Ex tempore"): no arrangement (though our older content was arranged), just live improvisations, recorded with our weekly sessions - cleaned up and mastered. Sort of sonic sand mandala, produce and let go, blown by the wind.
Here we are...
Thomas Langer - guitars
Waldemar Barkowski - keyboard, vocals, e-drums ("Beat Buddy" pedal)
Bernd Hahn - bass and percussion
SoundClick artist 1st Contact presents "Shred Metal", a remarkable release in the Hard Rock genre. The tempo sits at 130 BPM, contributing to its hard-hitting character. The production incorporates selected samples and loop elements.
The contemplative atmosphere pairs with a body-moving pulse throughout the track. "Shred Metal" has peaked at #14 in the Hard Rock category on SoundClick. 1st Contact continues to build a Hard Rock catalog on SoundClick, one of the longest-running platforms for independent artists.
