“Wir koennen ja Freunde bleiben” (Let’s Remain Friends) is a flowing cinematic patchwork that at once embraces and deconstructs the notions of genre whilst never losing sight of its warmth and totality. The album rolls elements of brooding post jazz instrumentals through, noirish Morricone’esque trip hop and ambient electronica. Beyond these ingredients, “Wir koennen ja Freunde bleiben” is defined by its indelible sense of time and space as if each feature of it’s musical terrain was mapped out by a jazz cartographer.
