Have you ever had a dreamy journey into your consciousness? I wonder if it sounded anything like SPITTELMARKT AM ABEND, a wonderfully experimental, spoken word track by The Mind Is Complex? Mainly in German, it is hard to decipher, but some odd phrases and words breach even my terribly British ignorance of a foreign language. Behind Lorina Speder's words are indistinct rhythmical noises with an industrial feel, perhaps representing the rusty, old cogs and chains rattling around our brains? Odd and absorbing, it is certainly worth exploring.
Based in Athens and Berlin, The Mind Is Complex describe themselves as "a spoken word / experimental hip hop / weirdo pop project" with German artist Lorina Speder (Vocals & Lyrics) & Swedish musician and producer Jari Heikki Haapalainen (Beats & Production).
The track is taken from their new EP I Dream About Something Else, listen below with an open head.
