Coole Sache....der nächste Step ist damit wohl getan..yeah

boah!!!
diese zielstrebigkeit und planungssicherheit verwirrt mich etwas *g*

Noch is das Album nicht aufm Markt. Wer weiß, was uns noch erwartet *gg*

Aber Mitte März klingt sehr gut...2 Monate...toll

Ich bin auch ganz beeindruckt. Und in einem Monat die neue Single, da darf man ja echt gespannt sein. Den Namen des Albums find ich schonmal gut

Ja, der Name macht was her

Und nochmal der Eric:

Find ich gut, dass es artwork als cover gibt. Fand das europ. Almost Happy Cover nie so gelungen, das amerikanische und Cocoon Crash mit Gerts Zeichnungen dafür umso mehr.

echt?? ich fands genau andersrum...

Tja, da sieht man mal wieder, wie schwer es für eine Band ist, es allen recht zu machen

Die Seite vom Atelier in Luxemburg behauptet übrigens, dass das neue Album 13 Lieder enthalten wird. Wieder ein kleines Puzzlestück mehr...

Sarah und Gert zur Aufnahme des neuen Albums (von der K's Choice Facebook-Seite):

“It’s been 10 years since all of us were together in a studio; 10 years of working on solo albums, side projects and making little babies.

Apparently, that’s what it took to pick up from where we ended, and to rediscover the initial excitement we felt when we first started making albums back in the nineties.

We obviously walked different paths all these years, so when we first started playing new songs for each other, the sum was rather eclectic. Fortunately, it didn’t take us more than a couple of weeks to readjust to each other on a musical level, and to learn again what we almost forgot : how wonderful it is to make music with this band, and, if I may say so myself, just how great it sounds.

We rediscovered what we were about to lose when we decided to put this band on hold all these years ago.

We were on a train without looking at the scenery, and now we’re back doing both.

Along with original bandmembers Koen Lieckens and Eric Grossman, Sarah and I welcomed two new musicians, Thomas Vanelslander & Reinout Swinnen.

During the first couple of rehearsals, it became clear that the 6 of us don’t have the excact same musical background.

It’s pretty close, but not quite. We all share a passion for music though, as well as a love for all things beautiful, and soon this was going somewhere we were all hoping for : new K’s Choice songs that sound like us from the very first second, but with layers and angles that make us sound like a brandnew band at the same time.

Some people would call them rocksongs, some pop or even folk.

We never cared too much about labels; to us they’re just 14 tracks from the bottom of our heart trying to grasp just a little bit of life’s mystery, of people and their feelings big and small;

14 tracks that became a part of us with lyrics we believe to be universal, yet sometimes microscopically tiny.

All songs were we wonder if there’s a difference.(i know what you're trying to say here, gert, but i think it's clear in the last line)

Whatever they are, we liked them, and decided to put them on tape in a studio close to Sarah’s home in Asheville, North Carolina; an old church surrounded by mountains, big skies and places where they served excellent coffee. We asked Werner Pensaert, a very good friend of ours and producer/engineer who we’ve known since the recordings of our first two albums, to come along, and named the album after the great studio we were at : “Echo Mountain”.

Today our first single is released and it’s called “Come Live The Life”.

It’s safe to say its title and lyrics are a summary of how we feel this very moment : Sometimes life moves slow like the snails in the video, sometimes the speed of it is baffling.

Some of us are lucky, some of us aren’t, but we all experience beauty, pain, gain, loss, and everything in between on a daily basis. In the end, it all comes down to the life we’re all given being a beautiful thing.

We intend to live every single second of it, and play our music while we’re at it.”

Gert & Sarah Bettens

Ich bin ja mal gespannt, ab wann bzw ob das Album auch in D erscheinen wird.
Amazon hat es jedenfalls noch nicht gelistet

Ich bin auch schon ganz gespannt... Endlich geht wieder was

LG,
gromitje

Ich brech ab! Ein Gromit ist wieder da

(bin ebenfalls gespannt, ob, wie und wann man das Album in D käuflich erwerben kann. Solange hinterfrage ich den Sinn von 14 Songs auf 2 CDs zu verteilen. Ich gehe mal nicht davon aus, das K's Choice nun Post-Rock machen und 12-Minuten-Songs am Start haben... )

WAAAAAAS 10 Jahre ist das alles schon her!??!? OHGOTT ICH BIN SO ALT!


Gromit!!!! welcome back! Ich erinner mich duuunkel (10 Jahre sach ich nur...)

Das mit den 2 CDs finde ich auch wirklich höchst seltsam. Das ist doch total unpraktisch. Ist das wieder sone lustige und sinnlose Bettens-Idee? Ich bin gespannt..

Yuchu! So langsam kommen die alten .de-ler wieder zum Mutterschiff zurück. Das könnte diesmal ja'n echtes Revival werden!

Ups hier gehts ja um die neue(n) CD(s).
Ja darüber freu ich mich auch; aber noch mehr freu ich mich auf das "Drumherum".
