  • Description

    A cover album like no other: On 'Roter Mohn', German singer-songwriter Roger Matura turns John Lennon's "Jealous Guy" into an ambient ballad propelled by softly gyrating kalimbas, while "Get it On" by T Rex rises like a psychedelic phoenix from the ashes of feedback and multi-layered vocals.

    Whereas his previous releases sported a warm vintage sound, Matura had something more current in mind this time: he built a self-contained world from elements of electronica, acoustic instruments and his recognisable voice. The result is remarkable: Some of Roger Matura's cover versions sound more personal than the original songs.
