if you're smart t.v. mordor. for smart. what you watch what you want to up to date extraordinary. to decide what's. more. tom smart. hello and welcome to pop export your tickets and all the latest and jammin music i'm livin and here's what i have for you today. twenty five years of german history in song by the band cuts. the troll fire melancholy pop sensation lady among

clouds. and and fire on one of the winning bands in the match at home at rock. indie rock house has just launched. and i have to say it's really something it includes a thirty three minute song that takes and twenty five years of germany's history to accompany this news to come marathon there's a new film which recently premiered at a house concert and their hometown hamburg export was there. for some reason there's a. big. cuts across performing in hamburg as mojo club the german newcomers are launching their debut album titled narrow as loud more than loud. the climax of the show certainly is the louder this song lyric in your or your children is

accompanied by a film both the song and the film deal with childhood and growing up in a reunified germany from one nine hundred ninety on the bed to the song in the film are both an astounding thirty three minutes long. longer one with a song if it wasn't intended to be so long on the funk i just started writing and then i was a verse for every year when i was twelve i was a form of concert that means twenty five cents from one thousand nine hundred ninety to twenty fifteen you that's why it can't be cut down on a quote from an attack on a refugee shelter in rostock in one thousand nine hundred two events like this are also part of the song and the film which is set in a rented home in east berlin. for the filmmakers depicting twenty five years of german history was a real challenge. to

see idea was to pack all the stories and characters mentioned in a song into the house and to see the kids growing up together. and then to see what they all go through and what happens. in the title. of this biggest so it's more than just a music video backdrop for the band it's an actual film in its own right and. the band from hamburg got the idea for this song in two thousand and fourteen when some people in the former east germany began to protest the government's migration policies. under the rallies to counter picket there was a slogan that developed your children will be like us hope what life is like saying we can change you but your children can only turn out my car that had that idea took hold of me and i began to our client to my own life and that of my friends slogan him to task. is to speak. to.

the. incoming. the result of a song and film to take a clear stand against xenophobia and nationalism. a topic with relevance far beyond eastern germany. in the song it deals with how this division between east and west is actually quite weird is not just an east german issue it's relevant to all of germany. twenty five years and every unified germany seen through the eyes of someone who grew up in this time people are struck by the combination of music and film. their own music i'm a musician myself i don't know how you can memorize half an hour of lyrics complicated ones to. actually so imagine me of the stocks of pink floyd songs they made long songs that last is about just on top and i would switch it off. if you

want to experience the full force of crowds songs you have to see them live otherwise there is their debut album. and impressive film. as you heard the song i have a kid and your children it's thirty three minutes long so we can fit it into the show instead something new from casper a german record with american roots and a husky voice here's a dramatic video to his new song. maybe five. can be about how can you go to san antonio.

that's pretty emotional and a side of caspar i'm not used to seeing but the red bar will be hitting festival stages starting in may this year and now he has more news from that german music scene. it

a home crowd normally shy she comes out of her shell. she captivates her audience with the energy and very personal larynx. second on my feet and i always say i'm not offering a solution in the songs but if people feel what you've lived through then they know that they're not the only idiots that have bad things happen to them. that's enough to change something but it doesn't take the problems away is that. the twenty nine year olds debut album aerial perspective is an indie pop can't.

do the voice is amazing i'll for performance just makes a very likeable odgers the third down to out i really like her voice she has such a standout sound system. eighty years ago a little bit but not aka lily among clowns moved towards book she was a student of political science and she made a lot of music her first e.p. came out in twenty fifteen with find songs written by her. it was only them that she decided to devote herself entirely to music. it was a difficult step to take because i was always a bit scared of being an artist. when kalki at some stage then it became clear people like to listen to me so i either put everything into it all nothing at all two years ago i thought i have to try it on months it's. you album came out in the

autumn of twenty seventeen she's been torn with it ever since. among counters perform some pretty big gigs for such a new talent she performed to a crowd of ten thousand in finland and played in australia and after south by southwest festival in texas english language lyrics have universal appeal. as sureness had it learn anything is that i always wanted to travel and for early on everyone always said sing in german it's much easier it's in demand downs of us and i always said i can only do what i write and that's. it and it's brilliant because you travel with it so it has its benefits office. feels most comfortable on stage and every performance is different.

it was. predictable things happen which makes performances so much more exciting and lively and i guess so the evening can be an also or an exhausting month. but if it's a good evening and that is magic it works and nobody can artificially create. it. there were definitely magical concert moments for what's broken audience johnny's indie pop discovering. from atmospheric in the pub we now go to hip hop from all excess the german rep are with rusin and ukrainian roots has managed to do what few others have he talked to both but german single and album charts in the same week he has the cliff to his

face off in the metal battle at the back open air who is the fastest hardest and the loudest each month we feature one of the five winning bands from the last competition and their place in fair that metaphor lists from the netherlands'. to surprise package at the metal battle of twenty seventeen in fareham the average age of the band members is just nineteen the jets group only got together nine months before the competition knocking was their biggest to get so practice was keep. this three times a week and we're just drilling the songs you know just as over and over every parts we play the hundred times of everything didn't need to be perfect and as well as it

did was really really fun to do we saw. we saw itself grow as a band and it was really really cool to see. hard work is a must but to win against twenty seven international acts in banking you also need luck. and it seems the weather gods were smiling down on you in terror. to look at the weather channel this morning and the largest was saying yeah it's raining really plagues everyone is inside. the us ourselves and he said yeah it was raining so hard and everyone just stormed inside of the tent so i think we're lucky that that's raining.

until now in. i have never performed in front of more than one hundred people here they have to wow an overcrowded tent but it's not a problem the musicians from the dutch city of eindhoven know how it's done because they've studied their craft. all started a. college. that's where it all started with a few line up changes it's called for because a lot of teachers there are. only from one of them say shit like that but we are talking about the business side of music so we have an advantage and that's how to take. so studies at the music academy were worth it as the middle madelyne back in the band came in third place. in favor of the metal newcomers might still be young but they were already like seasoned pros so watch this space.
