The last in the series from the Motorschiff Stubnitz. It would bring a tear to our eyes if we were not waiting with baited breath for the last and monumental band. Continuing with an assault on the ear-drums this band will not disappoint, bringing distortion, free jazz and improvisation crashing together in a progressive and impressive manner.

SELVHENTERArchaic / Minimalistic / Energetic Jazz

The Danish all-women Selvhenter quintet may be the most exciting outfit to emerge from Scandinavia in recent years. This band, part of the art collective eget værelse and the alternative scene of Copenhagen, has already been active for five years, performing with influential outfits like the Swedish-Norwegian trio The Thing and Japanese drummer Yasuhiro Yoshigaki’s Orquesta libre. Selvhenter honed a sound all its own—an uncompromising, boundless energetic one that blends the aesthetics of experimental rock, the sophistication of improvised free jazz and the aggressiveness of punk, noise and metal, all performed with passion and humor, sometimes even as music fit for dancing.

“explosive textures are being provided by the horns, both being played through huge amplifiers and a variety of foot pedals to guarantee a maximum of distortion, a massive sound being propelled by the two powerhouse drummers who sometimes sound like SANDY NELSON on steroids (no horsemeat jokes here, please). this is not for the faint at heart, but probably the future sound of JAZZ to come.”
