2: Im Licht / Der Rhythmus der Maschinen

10/12/21 • 49 min

Get ready as J Wilgoose Esq and Rory MacLean take you to the city of light, the fastest city in the world - Berlin of the 1920s. In that decade, like moths to a flame, artists and free thinkers were drawn to this metropolis which would be bathed in light for the 1928 Berlin Im Licht exhibition. Im Licht and Der Rhythmus der Maschinen are tracks inspired by the city’s technological and industrial development in the years before the Wall Street crash of 1929.
