Keshavara wear magnificent Mustaches, bold headgear and speak an adventurous patois of English, Hindi, German and Gibberish. On their new album »III«, the Cologne-based band around the German-Indian musician Keshav Purushotham create sounds the way other people mix drinks after they've already enjoyed three: washed-out Kraut-Pop and diasporic Dub-not-Dub excursions are combined with each other and shaken wildly. Sweetly meandering melodies, borrowed from a fantastic no man's land in the border region between exotic library compositions and psychedelic soundtracks, merge with the grooves of a rhythm section that would also have felt at home in the recording studios of funky Beirut in the mid-seventies. The result is cocktails topped with a surrealistic sugar rim that have the effect of hallucinogenic jelly. Music that shimmers and shimmers, like a mirage in the desert. One moment Keshavara sound like Ennio Morricone had scored a Bollywood film, and the next like an Eden Ahbez song produced by Curt Boettcher, or - not quite as spinish but nonetheless fantastic - as if Khruangbin and Sven Wunder had finally recorded an album together. In the most brilliant moments, it all comes together as if by magic and then culminates in songs like “Spiegelmann” and “Tableau Vivant” – fantasmorgiastic parties full of transcultural clashes that invite us listeners to transform them into colorful group choreographies.
