GAS 'Der Lange Marsch' 2xLP

The album GAS - DER LANGE MARSCH once again invites us to follow the deep sounding bass drum, to give in to its irresisOble pull into a psychedelic world of 1000 promises.

At the latest with the release of the albums "Zauberberg" and "Königsforst", in the mid-1990s, one associates GAS, Wolfgang Voigt's very own arOsOc cross-linking of the spirit of RomanOcism and the forest as an arOsOc fantasy projecOon surface, with intoxicaOngly blurred boundaries of post-ambient infatuaOon and the impenetrable thicket of abstract atonality. The distant, iconic straight bass drum marching through highly condensed, abstract sounds taken from classical music by the sampler or modulated accordingly, and the enraptured gaze through pop art glasses into the hypnoOc thicket of an imaginary forest, manifested over the years this unique connecOon of audio and visual, which to understand fully, then as now, would be neither possible nor desirable.

Quite the opposite. The album GAS - DER LANGE MARSCH once again invites us to follow the deep sounding bass drum, to give in to its irresisOble pull into a psychedelic world of 1000 promises. In the process, the journey leads us past staOons

of memories sounding from afar, from "Zauberberg" to "Königsforst" and "Pop", from "Oktember" to "Narkopop" and "Rausch", back and forth, now and forever.

Way. DesOnaOon. Loop. Forest loop. No beginning. No end.
