Cassandra Miller 'Tracery : Lazy, Rocking' (2017) is part of a new modular work, 'Tracery', for voice and fixed audio. This module features no live performance, but uses the process common to all parts of the piece, that of Juliet trying to sing along to a piece of source material whilst performing a body scan meditation. In this module the source material is the second movement of Ben Johnston's String Quartet no. 8.

Energie, pointierte Texte und auf Du und Du mit Schneewitchen. Durch&Durch aus Köln, das sind vier Typen mit freundlichem Draufgänger-Charme – und sie geben Gitarrenmusik etwas zurück, was ihr zuletzt so auffällig abhandengekommen war: Spaß und Relevanz.
Vordergründiger Humor holt einen ab, doch in ihren Texten finden sich immer wieder Tapetentüren, die noch mal weiterführen - und ehe man es sich versieht, tanzt man im Hinterzimmer zu einer smarten Metapher über Konsumkritik. Tanzen, wirklich? Ja, Durch&Durch sind nämlich endlich mal wieder eine Gitarrenband, zu der man das kann.
Was sicher auch an der popverwurzelten Inszenierung ihrer Stücke liegt, die mitunter an Blondie, Maximo Park oder Von Wegen Lisbeth erinnern mag – gleichzeitig, versteht sich.
Ein kongeniales Kumpel-System voller Ideen, Spielfreude und vor allem Energie.
Unterhaltsamer wird es nicht mal bei Deichkind, schwöre!
