Sitar, synths & sensuality between raga, jazz and free fall

Deutschlandfunk Kultur recalls the music of the Pulsar Trio as "sensual states of suspension, the intoxication of free fall and gliding across vast expanses", a description that also fits the current fourth studio album "We Smell in Stereo" extremely well. Its cover is adorned with sharks, because sharks don't smell in mono, their sense of smell works in stereo.

 

This trio acts instinctively like a single organism. Its unusual and probably unique line-up of Aaron Christ (drums, percussion), Beate Wein (piano, synthesizer) and Matyas Wolter (sitar, surbahar - the plucked long-necked lutes of North Indian classical music) makes it possible to constantly explore new musical territory. This can take the form of a complex, ancient Indian compositional form called "Dhrupad", which forms the basis of the title track and is given a completely different face in the arrangement of the three - or the use of a bass sitar called surbahar instead of a double bass, more electronics than before and more direct borrowings from the classical raga repertoire.

 

This concert is playful and virtuosic, between instrumental ecstasy, intimate introspection and sensitive sound experiments, a fusion of three individual musical characters with very different influences, ranging from pop with a grand gesture, GDR punk and noise, jazz, Bach, minimal music to the classical sitar tradition from India.
