Description

Two Franco-born guitarists (Jan Pascal & Alexander Kilian) are exploring new ways of the flamenco guitar.

That they dedicate their new album to this idea and call it 'Beloved Europe' has resulted in their travels. At a music festival on the Greek refugee island of Samos the parallels to the ancient myth of the 'abduction of Europe' came to their mind: 'Europe is in danger, even today,' says Jan Pascal. 'You just have to replace the bull with potentates, protectionism and nationalism. We all have existential fears in us, but the question has to be how we handle them. To be guided by our fears or by art. The art of loving. The love of art. 'For Pascal and Kilian no question. They seek the connection in the music. For four years they unceremoniously gathered what they needed for 'Beloved Europe'. Intuitive, curious, open to chance encounters and influences.
It is an optimistic, a serene and profound picture that Jan Pascal and Alexander Kilian draw with their crossover. Their outstanding virtuosity is never in the foreground, it is always about the touching melodies and rousing rhythms. In this way, an accessible, a young and modern Europe will meet you musically. The two remixes of 'Dance of Joy' and the title track, developed together with the electronic art artist Andi S., conclude the album and carry the World Flamenco from Café del Mundo to the dance floors of the clubs. What makes 'Beloved Europe' not only a statement against cultural incest and neo-nationalist, anti-European ideologies, but also a counterpart to the soulless, industrial music from the drawing board, which dominates the 'market'. If you are looking for artistic individuality, authenticity and creative potential inspired by an idea, you will find it with Café del Mundos 'Beloved Europa'.
