The two albums that followed “Angst” were both born of improvisations – and even the two albums in question sound very different from each other, the basic tracks often come from the same sessions. As its name suggests, “Knot” is the knotty, the more difficult one – it is the perfect soundtrack to a car ride on an Autobahn late on a rainy night. “Neon” is the brighter album, a stylistically more diverse, more impressionistic affair – like an “Omsk” 40 years later. In this episode, you hear Henk Hofstede, Rob Kloet and Robert Jan Stips talk about the improvising and their work schedule. The guests are Ephrem Lüchinger, Swiss keyboard player extraordinaire, with whom we sat down to listen to some songs from “Knot” that he did not know. Swiss (music) journalist Markus Ganz has been following the band from the beginning of the 80ies; we asked him about the invisible ties of this music to German Krautock. Music by the Nits and Ephrem Lüchinger Production and Sound Design by Darren Hayne.
