Wild explodieren
Halbgar durchziehen
In Scham verglühen
ALLES WAS SIE MACHEN IST KUNST
Zum Ende des Ten Year Runs der Berliner Projektmanagement-Echtzeitperformance UNS husten Band und Label noch einmal den Staub vom Archiv. Und siehe da: drei heimliche Hits! Songs, die diese Band groß machten, und die doch niemals irgendwo offiziell verfügbar waren. Hier sind sie. Endlich.
DOZER/GEFALLEN etwa, Brachialerotik auf bollerndem Beat etwa, zu 50% gestohlen und zu 50% vergoldet. "Etwas angestrengt im Flow, aber gute Schwanzline", urteilten einst erfahrene Rapper.
TRANSMISSION etwa, das noch nie gefehlt und noch nie verfehlt hat, wenn diese Band spielt. Hier in der Ungestümversion von ganz früher, als der Sänger noch richtig hoch konnte.
KARNAVARAL schließlich, das "Apropos hoch!" sägend in den Raum platzt. Die hochpolitischen UNS, die schon damals vor dem Heute warnten. Ach, hätten sie doch nur verständlich formuliert!
UNS sind Geschichte. Aber alles, was sie haben, muss raus. Greift zu, weil gut. Und billig. Also gut.

Wildly exploding
Pulling it through half-baked
Burning up in shame
Everything they do is art
ALLES WAS SIE MACHEN IST KUNST
At the end of the Ten Year Run of the Berlin-based project-management-real-time-performance UNS, the band and label cough up the dust from the archive once more. And, oh, look: three secret hits! Songs that made this band big and yet were never officially available anywhere. Here they are. Finally.
DOZER/GEFALLEN for example, brute erotic on a bouncing beat, 50% stolen and 50% gilded. "Somewhat strained in flow, but good cock line", as experienced rappers judged once.
TRANSMISSION, for example, which has never failed and never missed when this band played. At hand here in that impetuous version from back in the days, when UNS' singer still was able to sing high notes.
KARNAVARAL finally, who bursts into the room sawing "Apropos high!" The highly political UNS, who - back then - warned of today already. Oh, if only they would have formulated it in an understandable way!
UNS are history now. But everything they have must be put out. Take it, because: good. And: cheap. Therefore good.
