  • Ein Millionen-Testament, zwei erfolglose Typen und drei Challenges – mitten in Sin City
    Für alle Fans von Tommy Jaud und Heinz Strunk

    Nachdem sie auf Ibiza mit ihrer Musikkarriere grandios gescheitert sind, erobern die beiden erfolglosen Über-Männer Las Vegas! Ihr verstorbener Freund Ibiza-Paul hat Thomas Kowa und Christian Purwien ein Millionenerbe hinterlassen, allerdings unter einer Bedingung: Sie müssen den Las-Vegas-Triathlon gewinnen. Obwohl Thomas dem Glücksspiel abgeschworen hat und Christian sich für den wiedergeborenen Zwillingsbruder von Elvis Presley hält, machen sie sich auf den Weg in die Stadt der Träume und gescheiterten Existenzen. Dort angekommen stellen sie schnell fest, dass der Las-Vegas-Triathlon gar nichts mit Sport zu tun hat ...

about

Drei Disko was made for really throwing shapes on the dance floor. While the floor should know what synth pop is all about. Maybe that would require a cultured dance floor, but let's be honest: Wouldn't it be cool, if the whole dance floor just refused to play songs by, say, Kanye West? The smart ones amongst you might say that people on the dance floor don't play the songs, they just play from the speakers. Correct, but wouldn't it be the best achievement if AI only let speakers play songs that we enjoy?
These for instance:

In a just world Observer would be the club hit of 2018, but we live in a world, in which plastic wrappers tear open poorly and the US has a president with the haircut and IQ of a piece of toast. Any questions?

Es ist wie es ist reminds us of DAF at its peak and maybe in twenty years someone will write a song that reminds people of Purwien & Kowa at their peak. Until then, play this song.

Sleepless in Vegas tells the story of what could happen on very long night in Las Vegas. You definitely need to watch the video on YouTube. It's Smack my bitch up in a Purwien & Kowa style.

Disko 80: Yes, the song is too long. But the lyrics already say that, so shut up. That's what the 80s was like.

Bozen Rimini: A track that might have been written on a train from Bozen to Rimini, if you didn't have to change trains some twenty times. Alright, you only have to change once, but not if you get on the wrong train.

Regret is the song for anyone who has taken a few punches to the gut and is still standing nonetheless. Wrapped in a cosy, chill-out robe to avoid being hurt again.

You should read about how this and the other two EPs, Drei 80s and Drei Vegas, were created in the novel Vegas! Vidi! Non Vici! that is coming out at the same time. Okay, it's all in german, but the germans don't understand it either and you get one of the EPs for free with the book.
