"DRUM 'N' SPACE"
Prudence Music
Rhythms and great percussion. These are the main traits of this formidable CD. All drums and other instruments (mainly guitars and electronic keyboards) have been played by Harald Kümpfel, but there are other people here: Manuel Lopez, Uli Kümpfel, Michael Ruff and Mark Polscher. Twelve themes are included in the album. One of them, "Zauberei 9", was recorded live on 1993. With Drum 'n' Space, Harald show us how well his many years of experience in afro-american music are helping him to do the work he really likes. He uses all the ingredients he needs, including sample conversations from astronauts and the computer enhanced voice of the noted astrophysician Stephen Hawking. Kümpfel is also a researcher: he has always the time to search for interesting new sounds and rhythmic patterns. Many of them are in this amazing album.
