Coming as 3 seperate digipaks, inside an outer Cardboards-slider! Hello, this is Welle: Erdball! Long since advanced from an insider tip to a cult formation, Welle:Erdball broadcast their masterpiece on the airwaves with the show "Film, Funk & Fernsehen"... And that on all frequencies: Where other bands already speak of an album at eight tracks, here you can look forward to over 2 hours of music and more than 30 (!!!) tracks!
The album title (Film, Radio and TV) says it all: The power of the media. And it is almost all-encompassing; with a theme that no longer stops at pandemics, gender and global thermonuclear war and is reflected in German lyrics, but also in songs in English, Russian and even Swedish. With such a scope, the attention is also on some cover versions, because when David Bowie's "Space Oddity" with female voices accompanied by 6 voices of the Commodore C=64 sounds from the speakers, you feel in the right position when great things happen.
Also included: A complete radio play CD (in German) with many guest stars, details see below! To this year's anniversary of the C=64, which was presented to the world in January 1982, Welle: Erdball has dedicated another complete CD, on which the C=64 with sound & speech is the only instrument.
The new album of Welle: Erdball "Film, Funk & Fernsehen" is the milestone that nobody will ever get past. It is the original!
Released Mid October 2022 by Nexilis.
