Minerall – Strömung
Sulatron Records – 2025
Rock, Kraut, Space, Psych, Jam
Rated: ****
Minerall is improvised rock… Since 2023. They released their first two track adventure called Bügeln in 2024 and is now back with another wild instrumental space, psych and kraut rock exploration of ebb and flow, of surging energy and of psychedelic wanderlust. Minerall is a project of Marcel Cultrera (Guitar, Speck), Tommy Handschick (Drums, Kombynat Robotron, Earthbong) and Dave Schmidt aka Sula Bassana (Bass, Synth, Zone Six, Interkosmos, and many more). The new voyage is called Strömung and is comprised out of two tracks, both around twenty minutes of length. Minerall is good, great even and Strömung is stunning and I had it high on my Doom Charts list for March. And our good Doktor420 had it as his Number 1 spot. It unfortunately ended up on Number 49. Minerall manages to bring out the best of the members involved and combines that best into a spirited ride through the cosmos. Recorded at the same time as Bügeln, when the three met for a birthday party jam in Yannick Aderb's studio Buffbergen, this release seems to come at the perfect time for all you heavy heads that need a calming, some comfort and balm for the mind. And knowing this was recorded together with Bügeln, well, there might be even more great releases in the future. The ease and flow of the three, and how they drift along the current and bounce of each other is stunning. Strömung does not offer up any resistance, it’s freeing and as you let your mind wander, you will feel the caress, its ripples salve you heart and soul…
