Jack Deckard Great instrumental prog album in the European tradition. As good as any from the 70s. Favorite track: Eigengrau.

Carsten Pieper As I missed their Bochum show tonight, the next best thing is to get the album ;-)

Instrumental post/prog/whatever rock with many tasty ingredients!

Weite are a kind of Berlin-alternative-rock supergroup. Judging from the other/regular bands of its members you'd expected this to be a much heavier affair, but in my ears the playful 70s/psychedelic/Canterburian vibes are dominant here. Favorite track: Eigengrau.

David Goldstein Expansive, elegant, intermittently heavy and always very pretty. Prog/Kraut/Space-rock excellence.

about

Oase is the sophomore album from Berlin-based progressive rock collective Weite, and the follow-up to the band’s 2023 debut LP Assemblage. Clocking in at almost an hour, Oase—German for "Oasis"— takes listeners on an intricate and textured journey that draws inspiration from the pioneering spirit of 70s psychedelic rock, blending influences from “Canterbury scene” prog, Krautrock, early electronica, post rock, and Americana.

Oase is characterized by long, expansive, atmospheric compositions yet is undoubtedly more structured and song-oriented than the band’s debut, albeit in the broader sense of the word. Expect more details in the coming weeks along with new music!

Weite was formed in Berlin in winter 2022 by bassist Ingwer Boysen (delving) recruiting drummer Nick DiSalvo (Elder, delving) and guitarists Michael Risberg (Elder, delving) and Ben Lubin (Lawns). Initially intended as a one-off recording session, the four recognized an obvious musical chemistry and common ground and decided to turn the project into a proper band. Keyboardist Fabien de Menou (Perilymph) joined in 2024.
