Description

The skies over Rome and Berlin have opened up and we are rejoicing: the hip Italian film composer Teho Teardo has recorded the magnificent album “Still Smiling” together with the brilliantly charismatic frontman of Einstürzende Neubauten, Blixa Bargeld album “Still Smiling”.

This extraordinary collaboration has resulted in twelve songs that combine classic songwriting and experimentation in an original way. These songs reflect a variety of moods and emotions that only Teardo and Bargeld could create in this constellation, with personal, even intimate lyrics by Blixa that also radiate a great deal of wit and charm.

Songs such as “A Quiet Life”, “Come Up And See Me” and “Mi Scusi” impress the listener from the very first listen because they also have very catchy melodies. On “Mi Scusi”, Blixa sings in Italian; it is sung in English, German and Italian, sometimes in all three languages in one song. And there’s a great version of Tiger Lily’s song “Alone With The Moon” on “Still Smiling”. If you like Morricone, Bad Seeds and Einstürzende Neubauten, you shouldn’t miss this masterpiece of German-Italian friendship!
Reviews

“An exciting excursion into the fringes between classical music, avant-garde pop and spoken word.” (musikexpress, August 2013)
