DON'T TOUCH MY ANIMALS / Michael Schiefel
About Album
Technology finally provided further momentum. An update of his beloved loop-machine was released, providing new possibilities of acoustic collage. New repertoire had accumulated, and thus Michael Schiefel went into the studio once more to continue his vocal research with "Don't Touch My Animals". Some of the songs are German, some English; they recount stories of love and the tangle of relationships, fabricate surreal sketches of city life or reflect ironically on Germany's inherent contradictions. All the beats, sounds and melodies are vocal, and come together to construct a brilliant patchwork of pop/jazz moods and rhythms.
