about

Pop anno 2022 wie mensch ihn sich wünscht: Ein Hybrid aus dramatischen Songtexten, treibenden Ostblock-Beats und ganz leisen Tönen, irgendwo zwischen Avantgarde und 80er-Disco angesiedelt. So lautet das Mittel von LEV TIGROVICH gegen die gegenwärtige Katerstimmung im fragilen innereuropäischen Zusammenhalt. Ihren sehr persönlichen und originalen Kommentar geben Xenia Wiener (u.a. Thalia Theater Hamburg, Theater Basel) und Janos Mijnssen (u.a. Panda Lux, Faber) und wechseln in ihrem Erstlingswerk «Opera Semiseria» während acht Tracks zwischen den Genres, Gemütszuständen auch gleich mal zwischen Zeiten. Mal melancholisch, mal mit Augenzwinkern, jedoch stets mit Ohrwurmpotenzial. Besonders schön illustriert dies der Opener «Машина Времени» (eng. «Time Machhine»). Das Duo führt darin das Leitthema des Albums ad absurdum und sehnt sich gleich zurück in die Steinzeit. Dabei schrammen sie haarscharf am Kitsch vorbei, nur um etwas später plötzlich ernstere Töne anzuschlagen. Semiseria eben.
