For the album "Bangers Only!" Jazzrausch Bigband chose a different focus. They have concentrated on a form which is by its nature tight and compact: here are thirteen "bangers", the kind of hits that no self-respecting concert or playlist should ever be without. We're fixed on the three- to four-minute song form here. So everything is about sticking to the point, or often just getting straight down to it. So we hear the very catchy, yet refined "Moebius Strip", the funky "I Want To Be A Banana" or the brass thunderstorm "Punkt und Linie zur Fläche". The other half of the setlist is new, the list of ingredients is typically long for Jazzrausch Bigband: techno, disco and funk beats, thick walls of brass alongside wide, airy surfaces, plus vocals, spoken word and improvisation. Euro-dance borrowings are new - sweet, garish and juicy.
