Naomi
1996
Bernd and Nico meet at a bus stop on their way to a musicians'
workshop somewhere in the countryside of northern Germany. During
that weekend they discover that they like the same books as well as
the same beverages, that they have very similar musical tastes - and
that they have been living two streets apart from each other in
Hamburg for two years without knowing it.
Back in Hamburg they find a rehearsal space for their respective
bands and start writing music and playing onstage together. Very
enthusiastically and very much without any considerable sucess,
although they still claim that those bands were actually really good.
They make a habit of loading a car with all their gear each August
and retreating to Bernd's parents' house in Italy for two weeks,
hanging out, writing music, and playing fierce boccia tournaments.
1998
As a side project, they start fooling around with samples,
electronics and different grooves, which will eventually lead to what
we now know as naomi. They keep on struggling as songwriters while
having lots of fun with their new electronic project. When they play
those new tracks to friends and fellow musicians, most every time
every listener seems absolutely thrilled. They wonder.
1999
During Bernd's stints as a radio DJ for a big radio station in the
south of Germany, one of his colleagues suggests they send a tape to
Mole Listening Pearls in the nearby town of Neckargemⁿnd. Which they
do.
2000
The "Mole-people" having been instantly charmed, naomis first 12"
record containing four tracks is released. The press is enthused.
2001
In April, both having been forced out of their respective apartments
at about the same time, they decide to move to Berlin, now sharing a
flat which also contains their studio.
2002
More 12" releases, compilation tracks and remixes follow, a fact
which helps naomi refine their sound, skills and knowledge. They
produce loads of new tracks and ad some vocals, thus slyly smuggling
their incurable habit of writing pop songs back into the electronic
context. Soon they finish their debut album "Everyone Loves You"
which is released in April. The track äGoô is chosen for the Amnesty
International TV spot which is broadcasted all over Germany. Mole
headquarters is informed about hot phone lines at Amnesty
International's PR office: the song seems to have hit a nerve.
While drafts for the second albums are developed, Nico also publishes
short stories and works on his first novel by teaming up with his
partner in crime Thomas Mersch.
2004
The album grows and finds a shape. The British Rock approach of
sharing a flat makes the sound more personal, compact and intense
than their debut. It's also more of a pop album: more vocals, more
guitars, more songwriting structures.
The first novel of Tobias K÷nigshausen (the writer's pseudonym of
Nico Tobias) and Thomas Mersch is published as one of the 2004 key
publications of Knaur Lemon.
Nico Tobias of Berlin based duo Naomi has vivid dreams. When a
strange but knowing voice whispers into his sleeping ears: ôBy the
way, King Kong is not dead!ô, he feels so happy and relieved that
right the next day he writes a song about it. This touching and witty
piece of Electropop is typical for the second Naomi album
"Pappelallee". Sometimes bizarre but always catchy. Serious but never
downcast. Melancholic but comforting. Full of drama but with ease.
EverythingÆs gonna be alright..
While ôPappelalleeôis highly accessible and feels familiar at first
contact, repetitive listening reveals an amazing abundance of
details. The warm and profound songs on the album cross electronic
structures with acoustic guitar, vocoder vocals with playful
melodeon, beatbox House with Jazz broom ballads and computerised
Reggae with singer/songwriter appeal.
A whole sound universe. Dinosaurs of the glorious 1970s and 80s
Pop/Rock era have left their traces. Obscure voice samples in ôExit
Songô evoke comparisons with British cult bands Lemonjelly and Bent,
while the sinister lackadaisical shuffle of "Paravent" bears
resemblance with Mogwai. On ôThree Stars No Matchô, singer Selda Kaya
(known from the bandÆs first album and the much acclaimed Naomi song
äGoô from the Amnesty International movie and TV spot) lends her
graceful voice. The song radiates a romantic serenity which so far
could only be ascribed to AirÆs classic "Moon Safari". But at the end
of the day, all comparisons crumble. All songs on "Pappelallee" sound
exactly like Naomi. This time even more elaborate and intense than on
their smashing debut äEveryone Loves Youô.
A closer look at the lyrics is rewarding. ôRainfallô connects seven
city names with a single word and still reveals a telling story.
"October" leads us through a storm of images into apocalyptic cinema.
The philosophical and danceable "Option" while dealing with the spell
of indecision delivers the great lines ôI canÆt say no and I canÆt
say yes - it's just another way of saying no, I guess.ô ItÆs worth to
listen.
