41 years, tears tears tears. While salty drops were dripping on the eastern German ground, caused by broken hearts and caged minds, creativity was rising from the ashes of post-war Deutschlands de- and repression. „In der DDR hat man von mir eine Weltanschauung verlangt, ohne dass ich die Welt anschauen durfte.” This quote by GDR […]
Easy Listening is aweful. It’s composed for only one reason: to give us the impression, that „everything is just fine”. But sometimes nothing is just fine. Cut it short: Easy Listening is the biggest garbage dump in the history of music genres. It’s even worse than (insert name of a band you really hate) and […]
Yumi Nagao is sitting on a stool in Shibuya. She’s crossing her arms on top of her legs that are crossed as well. Behind her, there’s a big shelf filled with selected books and zines. One of them is TISSUE Magazine N°1. Her look into the camera: Determined. Curious. Yumi is sitting still in the […]
