Thank you for the support, enthusiasm and professionalism in releasing and promoting my recent album The One Two Bird And The Half Horse. The tracks used in the mix are a selection from the current FLAU catalogue plus an exclusive Orla Wren track from a forthcoming EP. Mixed in a field surrounded by sixty foot trees, one day in August on Dartmoor in Devon.

The Notwist & the Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra

The Notwist + The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra
with The Sleeping Years

After many a celebrated concert in Hamburg, Amsterdam, Munich and Cologne, The Notwist and The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra will be playing at the Union Chapel in London on the 12th December.

The combination of a 20-piece orchestra with a 5-piece band from Bavaria, holds a lot more promise than the typical “Rock meets Classical” set up. Instead, old and new Notwist songs are elaborated upon to form extremely complex and intelligent orchestral arrangements that are sometimes moody and often happily insane but live up to high expectations.

The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra make music in their very own galaxy – a similar one to which Raymond Scott, Sun Ra or Bach and Beethoven must have once passed by.

These evenings celebrate a new interpretation and elaboration of the Notwistian songbook, which due to logistical reasons can only take place on a few very special occasions.

Last year, The Notwist released their album “The Devil, You and Me” on City Slang, for which the The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra, conducted by Daniel Glatzel, contributed important orchestral arrangements. The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra released their first album “Take Off” in May, on Notwist’s own label, Alien Transistor. Over the last two years the Munich based documentary filmmaker, Jörg Adolph, filmed the coming together of these two ensembles on stage and off.
