Welcome to the second studio album by the Berlin-based band Conic Rose. The album title Wedding is no coincidence. The story of Conic Rose is closely intertwined with the Berlin neighborhood that gives the record its name. The band's studio is located here, and both studio albums were created in the immediate vicinity of the small river Panke. This place settles over the music like a warming patina. The album feels as though the musicians and the neighborhood have invited one another to get to know each other. Not least because "Wedding" also means marriage. These marriages between a band and an urban landscape, a fading past and an emerging future, fear and hope -- unfold in every single song on Wedding. For their second album, Conic Rose repositioned themselves completely. Not in terms of personnel, but in the question of how to move forward. Conic Rose still sound like Conic Rose; their distinctive blend of cinematic jazz, ambient textures and guitar-led contemporary music remains untouched. And yet Wedding is, in many ways, the conceptual counterpart to their debut album Heller Tag. Where the debut documented movement within an urban setting, Wedding describes a state of being. Behind every piece seems to hover a large question mark. The group opens up its palette, allowing more influences, becoming at once more subtle, more profound, more filigree. It is less about definition than about the spaces in between. The most immediately striking difference from the previous album is the strong presence of the guitar. In Bertram Burkert's playing, many voices seem to converge. His yearning openness forms an equal counterpoint to Döben's trumpet and flugelhorn. Blurred and layered sounds occasionally make the ground seem to slip away beneath one's feet, while Döben's gliding lines create both closeness and distance. Together, the band express in a deeply subtle way a sense of life that corresponds precisely to the times. Conic Rose need no words to convey this feeling of uncertainty with remarkable eloquence. Perhaps this has something to do with Wedding being a place of confrontational introspection, but Conic Rose confront the escape from escape itself. With the recording and release of Wedding, this process is far from complete.

Conic Rose's debut album has finally come to life on stage. After two years of playing it live, the music has grown, shifted, and deepened. This live album captures that process -- recorded in one night at Kantine Berghain, Berlin. A unique blend of jazz, indie and electronic elements -- the signature Conic Rose sound.

Heller Tag is the debut album of Berlin-based jazz collective Conic Rose. The young musicians come from the most diverse musical backgrounds: their other projects include names such as arena-filling German pop stars Clueso or Samy Deluxe, but also jazz legends such as Michael Wollny or Joy Denalane. What connects them is their love to explore, create, redefine, and effortlessly move between abstraction and accessibility, high quality sound, and the beauty of the imperfect -- interweaving electronic elements, cinematic jazz, vibey soundscapes, and hints of art rock with eclectic, zeitgeisty influences. Their releases so far as well as the few shows they played on the back of their debut EP (2020) exceeded all expectations, attracting the attention of industry professionals all the way from the UK or USA. All songs are written, recorded, and produced by Conic Rose in their own recording studio in the Wedding neighborhood of Berlin.
