Søren and Emil 21:00
This is what the danes say about it: (scroll down for engelsk)
"I privaten bruger Søren og Emil masser af strøm, men når de spiller, fornægter de elekticitet. Her er der ingen højtalere der taler, mikrofoner der telefonerer eller trommemaskiner der maskerer. Søren og Emil går ind ad hoveddøren og spiller i øregangen. Du kommer ikke tættere på alting, end du gør til en koncert med denne duo.Emil fører en kontrabas. Søren spæder til med akustisk guitar, mens han fylder rummet med en syngende lyrik. Ordene møver sig gennem æteren med rundsavsklinger på albuerne, men de gør det på ryggen af catchy melodier, som det er tilladt at synge med på.
Søren og Emil har en trænet fortid som gademusikanter på Strøget i Århus og København.
Her har halvtreds procent af forbrugersamfundets medlemmer fået tinnitus på samvittigheden, når de er gået forbi duoens toner. Det er især de færdigtegnede mesterværker i barnevognene og kendisselvbiografierne fra Bog og Ide i bæreposerne, der har givet anledning til duoens spottende bedrevidenhed.
Søren og Emil er kort sagt drevet af angst for at ende ligesom far og mor. Men måske er en konservativ kile af voksen selverkendelse ved at banke sig ind i duoens satiriske foragt? For på et tidspunkt bliver man vel også træt i armene af at save i sit eget stamtræ?"
Here is the google translation (I have highlighted the best bits if you are in a rush):
Here there is no speaker is talking microphones telephone or drum machines that mask. Soren Emil walk in the front door and playing in the ear canal. You do not come closer to everything than you do for a concert with this duo.
Emil leads a double bass. Soren primes for the acoustic guitar while he fills the room with a singing lyrics. The words often try to over the air with circular saw blades on the elbows, but they do it on the backs of catchy melodies that are allowed to sing along to...(ouch)
Soren Emil has a trained past as buskers on the street in Aarhus and Copenhagen. Here, fifty percent of the consumer society members got tinnitus on their conscience (what?!) when they have gone past the duo tones. In particular, the pre-drawn masterpieces in a pram celebrity autobiographies from the Book and Idea in the bags, which gave rise to the duo's mocking know-all attitude.
Soren Emil short, driven by fear of ending up like the father and mother. But perhaps a conservative wedge of adult self-awareness by tapping into the duo's satirical contempt? For at some point you probably also tired in the arms of cutting in his own family tree? (yeah guys, stop cutting up your family tree..)
And my translation:
'In private Søren and his pal Emil use loads of power, but when they play,they don't use electricityWe don't use fancy electronics and it is cool - they say. Emil has a double bass, Soren has an Acoustic and he sings rather nicely. You will enjoy the fact that there are clashing lyrics with catchy melodies. You can sing along if you like.
They both did some busking in KBH and Aarhus, and it made all the consumers feel sick to their stomach because of their evil consumer ways. ...Something about autobiographies I don't get... but these guys know a LOT.
They don't want to end up like parents guys, that would be weird, but they are satirical. Maybe they also have some adult self awareness? Who knows. But don't fuck with your family tree.'
ENJOY!!
