"I follow the golden stream..." sings Rosa Anschütz in the title track of her new album, in a cold, clear, determined voice. Underneath, golden interference buzzes and splashes at first, while cold light lies over the "thick water". Followed by powerful beats setting in as the trumpet fanfares of the chorus herald victory over the elements. Golden Stream is second album of the 24-year-old artist, who lives in Vienna and Berlin -- an amazing work. It can be danced to, but one can also listen to it as a conceptual album; it is as full of beats as it is full of thoughts. Rosa Anschütz plays piano, flute, and trumpet, she worked a lot with modular synthesizers in the beginning of her career. Her musical awakening experience was the Atonal Festival in Berlin, later she also danced a lot at Berghain, and Berghain DJ Max Kobosil remixed her song "Rigid". Rosa Anschütz reinforces her enormously versatile vocals -- ranging from a pleading breath to a cold new wave speaking voice -- with a relentlessly marching four-to-the-floor techno; but underneath it all, lay polyrhythmic deviations again and again. Clattering and trembling, deep basses digging into the ground, while shimmering veils of sound blow from above. Rosa Anschütz follows the traditions of dark wave and post punk, but carves deep notches of sound sculpture and romantic smoothness. Goldener Strom is a great pop album, full of melodies, aphorisms, and beats that immediately catch your ear. At the same time, it is a manifesto of artistic sovereignty -- precious and wise in our times of streamlined art. Includes lyrics sheet.
