Ataraxia by Web Web

Ataraxia by Web Web is a reimagining of the 1970's song by Passport and hints at things to come from the group.

Presenting a first taste of the forthcoming LP "Kover Kover" by Web Web on Compost Records. "Ataraxia" was originally recorded by seminal 1970's German jazz-fusion band Passport, hazily and woozily re-interpreted here with loving reverence.

The upcoming album "Kover Kover" contains amazing jazz interpretations of songs by Nirvana, Grace Jones, Black Sabbath, Jimi Hendrix, Talking Heads, Grandbrothers, Dave Pike, Empire Of The Sun, Joe Jackson, Eurythmics, Kruder & Dorfmeister, as well as this wonderful tribute to Passport's Klaus Doldinger.

WEB WEB is starting a new chapter with Kover Kover. For the first time in the band's ten-year history, the focus is not on original compositions, but exclusively on cover versions - a radical change of perspective that seems entirely consistent.

The musicians' stylistic openness inevitably led to an intriguing question: what would songs by Talking Heads, Kruder & Dorfmeister, or Joe Jackson sound like if they had originally been penned by WEB WEB? The answer was obvious - you just had to put these pieces through the distinctive WEB WEB cosmos.

The idea: to interpret favourite songs from completely different musical worlds in such a way that they fit organically into one's own musical language. The amazing thing is that it wasn't particularly difficult. Because a really good song can be reduced to two essential components - a melody that you can sing along to and a harmonic structure that remains instantly recognisable even in its simplest form.
