Event Details
Danielle de Picciotto (Crime and City Solution) & Alexander Hacke (Einstürzende Neubauten) at Bowery Electric. They will be supported by Norman Westburg of the Swans , the Twisty Cats and Laura Ortman.
„Hackedepicciotto“ are Alexander Hacke and Danielle de Picciotto. Both are legends of their own making: Danielle de Picciotto moved from NYC to Berlin in 1987, to become the lead singer of the band „Space Cowboys“, the co-initiator of the Love Parade, a collaborator of the Ocean Club with Gudrun Gut, and Alexander’s partner in crime. Alexander Hacke is founding member and bass player of Einstürzende Neubauten. The artist couple, romantically married since 2006, has creatively interacted with countless international projects for almost 2 decades now besides regularly releasing their own compositions. Their live shows are, to put it mildly, intense. Danielle specializes in unusual instruments such as the Hurdy Gurdy, the auto harp and the cemence besides playing the violin and piano; Alexander is master of the bass, guitar and drums. Together they create beautiful, existentialistic, acoustic soundscapes, which roar and vibrate simultaneously leaving their audiences shaken but overjoyed. Danielle, author of two books, writes most of their lyrics, be it the poetic spoken word moments or the momentous choirs they compose together. Alexander Hacke, an excellent throat singer and vocalist, growls his grnarly, rumbling cries that float eerily over their nomadic desert drones, with screeching birds, bees or wild wind accompanying slow, heavy riffs that start as a whisper and end in a volcanic, rolling wave of apocalyptic frenzy.
Hackede Piciotto have been touring now for almost two years presenting their opus “Perseverantia” an album recorded in the Mojave desert and which can be seen as a diary of their ongoing travels.
On Dec 1st they will be presenting their new album ”Menetekel” which is darker than “Perseverantia”. Menetekel is another word for “the writing on the wall” and here the artist couple projects our collective despair of what is happening worldwide into a monumental symphony of sound, twirling and twisting it into a biblical frenzy”. The first song on the double LP whispers in harmony and sings” Welc
