Review: Element of Crime :: At four in the morning

<!–

–>

Actually, it shouldn’t surprise anyone anymore, but let’s be clear: Even in the 38th year of their history, Element of Crime remain true to themselves. Free jazz, acid house or reggaeton may sound in cloud cuckoo land, but not on this earth from the instruments of Sven Regener, Jakob Ilja and Richard Pappik. Once again, the protagonists of her pieces stand at the crossroads of love – they yearn, suffer, languish, dream. Following your observations of everyday life and crippled thoughts puts balm on battered hearts: “The memory is like a cute deer that bites like a dog and eats like a pig”, it says in “What is mine is also yours”. .

The beautiful song of longing “Dann du wieder” draws on laconic verses and romantic images. As soon as the lilacs enchant the bees again, the sweetheart will return, according to the calculation of the duet partners Sven Regener and Tobias Bamborschke (Isolation Berlin). Everything remains as it was: If melancholy means the beauty in sadness, then nothing comes as close to this feeling as Element of Crime’s chanson rock sublimated by trumpet and accordion.
