Info for Favorite Sin - Live

Carolin No breathe new life into the oft-dead concert recording. On two distinctly different albums, deliberately released at the same time, the duo shows its two faces: on the one hand, playful, imaginative and gentle; on the other, epic, experimental and gripping. Almost ten years lie between "Hausmusik" and "Favorite Sin - LIVE". Together they offer a comprehensive look at the work of this unconventional band. Carolin No are known as studio tinkerers and songwriters. But to get to the essence of the band, both fans and band agree, you have to experience them live. Carolin and Andreas Obieglo have resolved this tension several times in the past - with a concert recording, a live DVD and, on "Backstage", a song selection they recorded almost entirely in hotel rooms. "Hausmusik" goes beyond that. In Lockdown, Carolin and Andreas Obieglo re-recorded some of their best-known pieces acoustically - the concert they couldn't give. Supplemented by short interludes, field recordings and fine sound particles, the result is an intimate chamber play full of gentle psychedelia - "Pet Sounds" for the home aquarium, so to speak. And to emphasise this intimacy even more, for the first time the two's own names are on the cover. "Favorite Sin - LIVE" is classically laid out in direct comparison: Fifteen songs from the two-year concert tour for the "Favorite Sin" album - their first tour ever. Back then, Andreas tinkered with loops, effects and crackling textures in the studio, and in the interplay with Caro's sensitive voice and German traditionals, a truly unique blend was created, enhanced by the dynamic stage performances. Thus, these two works belong together like yin and yang - and stand for turning points in Carolin No's creative work.

Carolin No
hinter dem namen carolin no stehen die beiden miteinander verheirateten musiker carolin und andreas obieglo, die nach stationen in berlin und den usa heute fernab der metropolen in der nähe von würzburg leben.

Die musik von carolin no ist geprägt von der unverwechselbaren kristallklaren und dennoch samtig-warmen stimme von carolin obieglo, der virtuosität des multiinstrumentalisten andreas obieglo und den außergewöhnlichen kompositionen und sensiblen arrangements der beiden vollblutmusiker, die sich in keine schublade sortieren lassen.

Ihr stil orientiert sich richtung singer/songwriter und zeigt außerdem einflüsse aus electro, jazz, blues und country. das duo spielt facettenreich: elektronische soundscapes treffen auf akustische slide-gitarren, sphärische texturen auf konkrete beats. minimalistisch anmutende songs stehen neben satten arrangements mit blues- und gospelanklägen. eleganz paart sich mit sperrigem, melancholie mit lebensfreude und aus jedem ton schimmert die liebe zur musik.

This album contains no booklet.
