With their single "Have No Fear" The/Das began their summer with a nervous and chilly piece. At the same time it rang in a wild and hardworking time for them. The simultaneous release of their mini-album "Speak Your Mind Speak" on Sinnbus and the amazing, restlessly drifting supertrack "Outfashioned" on the Italian Techno label Life And Death fixed the targets for the coming months: a sweat-inducing split between two musical worlds and their customs and rituals: slightly distanced, electronic pop music on the one hand and carefully formulated, subtle listening-techno on the other hand. With loads of irons in the fire, a ride through the whole world.
As beforehand with Bodi Bill, Fabian Fenk and Anton Feist are on the road everywhere, play live shows as a band or just DJ-sets, whether at the Miami Music Week or the Detroit Movement Festival, in Moscow or at festivals in Italy. Exciting collaborations were to come, out of which three - Remixes by Uffe, Benjamin Damage and Vaal - were released on the band-owned label Krakatau Records as "Mind Speak Remixes" EP.
Above all the passion grew to set a quiet spot inside the noise and bustle and lean back for the moment. With "It's True" a gentle, winking piece of music is released on the 13th of September while the summer is hitting its home stretch. As hectic as this was for The/Das, as calm and conciliating they let it fade away bit by bit.
