Romy Hausmann & Fortuna Ehrenfeld

In the organizer's words:

Romy Hausmann
Princess Standard
Beats on Poems
Music by Fortuna Ehrenfeld

Romy Hausmann is a multi-talent. She finds a Princess Standard typewriter from the 1960s at a flea market. From then on, she spends restless nights hammering 52 torn fragments onto paper, inspired by their uncorrectability, and has them set to music by Cologne producer Martin Bechler (Fortuna Ehrenfeld).

Romy Hausmann shakes off all the niceties and stereotypes of a so-called power woman like an annoying fly, and we see her with her hair blowing and a champagne glass on the fire escape on her way to the TOP. Where life still scratches and bites and burns.

Romy Hausmann throws her heart onto the polished operating table for filleting with shameless toughness and the most tender courage. But no matter how many times we saw it in half, it never stops beating. Romy Hausmann carefully folds all the vulnerabilities of a scraped life into a small parchment umbrella to decorate her next, but certainly not last, drink.

Fearless, shameless, brave and wild.

With enchanting vulnerability and disarming closeness to the listener's ear, she throws last love and cold-blooded bile against all anger so as not to be eaten by it. Together with her, on PRINCESSSTANDARD we let ourselves fall blindly, staggering as it were, into a musical bed made by none other than Fortuna Ehrenfeld. A bed that seems to have been waiting for this eloquent literary suicide and will certainly need to be made up tomorrow morning.

Out of nowhere, the Hausmann/Bechler duo present a powerful album of beat-driven danceability and narcotic piano ballads.

Show some guts! Sing along, Sister!
