Kafkas Orient Bazaar is: Julian: guitar, vocals, synthesizer, bass Christoph: drums Adrian: synthesizer, guitar, vocals Attila: bass, vocals, guitar, synthesizer Kafkas Orient Bazaar from Munich are not part of a new generation of bands. They are neither spearhead nor follower in a movement conquering the music world for the millionth time. Their territory spans from Indie via Hardcore to Electropop, but they move their own way, defying gridlocked conventions. First the use of three languages, German, English and Turkish, with the intention of underlining the respective song's individual character, is particularly striking. Second their intuitive handling of various genres leaps out at the listener: the playfulness of indie rock, the catchyness of pop, the raw energy of hardcore and the interspersion of electronic sounds make an explosive dance music mixture. |
