Das Ende der Liebe

Active since: 2014

Das Ende der Liebe (DEDL) is an improvising quartet from Köln/Berlin: Andreas Völk (guitar, voice, live beats and sound processing), Laurenz Gemmer (Yamaha CP70, Ableton Live), Kenn Hartwig (bass, Nintendo Game Boy) and Thomas Sauerborn (drums, synthesizer). "Trip Music" is how the quartet describes itself, after one of their album titles. The four come from jazz and have turned their instruments into something of their own, with countless effects, preparations, live sampling and a drum kit built for this music.

A DEDL concert is one single continuous piece, usually between one and two hours: every piece comes into being in the moment, improvisation and hypnotic repetition carry each other, and the sound remains recognisable, psychedelic, sensual and wild, danceable as soon as the room wants it. They play in techno clubs and jazz clubs, at festivals and in off-spaces, on ships, in bunkers and planetariums, often with live visuals by Lucas Grey.
