Ratgrave Rock (LP)

Bol Partner

Ratgrave bestaat uit Max Graef en Julius Conrad. ‘Rock’ is hun tweede album – een doorlopende transmissie van Electronic P – Fusion. Het album verschijnt op 20 maart op het Black Focus label van Kamaal Williams. Hun inspiratie haalden ze uit jaren ’80 funk, soul, rock en elektronische muziek. In hun eigen woorden: “Rock is the essence of energy and vibration we felt in different styles of music, almost like a parallel component connecting all things we like. In the process of recording the new album we kept coming back to this essence no matter what style the original idea was. There was the raw and brutal energy of Jazz-Rock, a lot of video game influences that somehow adhered this essence just as well as quieter Pop and Psychedelic passages that we recorded. Among other things we absorbed a lot of heavy music during the time of the recording like Blue Cheer, Black Sabbath, Frank Zappa or Jimi Hendrix and realized while writing our own music how much impact they had even on quieter songs. This is why ‘Rock’ felt like the perfect title although the music ranges from P-Funk and Spiritual Jazz to various styles of Pop and beyond.”
