let's go. we climb down the steps into one of the cellars in
central berlin, where in the last few years the hardest and most
addictive parties in europe have been celebrated, and we hear -
terranova. "hitchhiking non-stop with no particular destination"
is the long-awaited second album from the trio comprising
mastermind fetisch, meister and shapemod - this time without
terranova-member kaos, who┤s currently in the studio completing
his solo project entitled ghost cauldron. twelve new tracks,
twelve exemplars of electronic dance music to which the standard
hyperbole of the music review, such as "thumping bass lines",
"driving beats" and "bitter-sweet vocals", no longer comes close
to what is being heard: sounds of the present; a new terranova
sound, such as has been found and partied to in the last few
summers at the legendary berlin club "pogo".
as on their first album ("close the door", 1999), terranova are
supported by notable guests: the stereo mc's singer and terranova
long-time guest vocalist cath coffey (electronically disguised on
"breathe" and the shuggie-otis cover "out of my head"); the new
yorker poetry legend mike ladd (rapping and toasting on "sublime"
and "heroes"); and - in a rousing performance - ariane from the
punk rock / new wave legend the slits (vocals on "mongril" and
"equal rights"). from the instrumental opener ("concepts") through
the club hits "sublime" and "out of my head", the bob marley cover
"running away" and on to the infernal outbreak of punk rock
guitars on "goodbye the ferrari", terranova rocks the house to
destruction - we're supposed to dance on the ruins and laugh.
terranova are inspired by hip-hop, detroit techno and punk rock -
of course. but their music is more than the sum of these parts.
sometimes you ask yourself where the current of this sound
originates, its darkness, its depths: the terranova sound goes
down deep - to where people find themselves eerie. where the soul
resides. where it gets deep down and dirty. terranova can be heard
in the streets, clubs and underground; but their sound doesn't
have any kind of place in the taste ghetto: terranova feels just
as much at home on the streets of berlin as in the clubs of london
and on the beach in jamaica. musical citizens of the world.
"hitchhiking ..." seems rougher, less produced and more hastily
put together than its predecessor does. you want to say: the new
terranova album has become more boys-oriented. jeans, leather,
metal - and electronics! the flesh thinks. you see girls,
headbanging and breakdancing on the dancefloor, while the boys at
the bar gawk open-mouthed. and that's how it will be. like its
predecessor, this longplayer will also be played in bedrooms and
on the four or five progressive dancefloors in europe.
the club space as a microcosm of our everyday reality. on the
perfect club night, there is fighting and laughing, weeping and
kissing, blame is taken, transgressions are forgiven, you lose and
find yourself - the new terranova album is about all of that and
nothing less. or, as the lyric in "sublime" puts it: "fact is/
beauty is sublime/ sublime is in the beauty/ and the beauty is in
the mind. good sex happens in the mind; the best ideas come from
the stomach. there has been no hitchhiking on freeways for a long
time. terranova: a new country. stick that thumb out.
