Bud Spencer und Terence Hill sind wieder da. In den billigen Western-Kulissen eines Freizeitparks für Arbeitslose drehen sie ihren neuen Streifen. Dabei gilt wie gehabt: Prügeln, saufen, Bohnen fressen!

Zwanzig Jahre nach dem VHS-Genuss im Kinderzimmer lassen wir die Antihelden unserer Kindheit noch mal antreten, um gewieft großen Schurken und fiesen Bürokraten das Handwerk zu legen. Dem Standard von sozialverträglicher Unterversorgung und Überproduktion setzen wir den Entwurf einer anderen Welt entgegen. Unsere H4 World ist offen für solidarische Tricksereien und nachhaltige Verschwendung, für arkadisches Nichtstun und eine rastlos flexible Sozialität. Bud Spencers wirbelnde Fäuste machen es vor.

In einer Zeit, in der nur die verschwenden dürfen, die schon immer zu viel hatten, werfen Spencer und Hill virtuos alles über den Haufen. Aber sind die Western-Helden noch dagegen, oder ist ihr parasitäres Joint Venture von Superarm und Superreich bloß eine weitere Säule der neoliberal-flexiblen Wirtschaftsordnung?

Label Info: Telekaster’s long awaited vinyl follow-up to The Silent Anagram finally arrives and sees an amazing development of sound. Matthias Grübel’s collaboration with film maker Stefan Bünnig gives some explanation to the more intimate and sublime new sound he’s put together. Versions Of Home blends rich instrumental elements, treated guitars, manipulated piano and transformed electronics to create an incredibly deep, gentle and fragile tale of hazy loveliness. Oh yes. With the suspenseful In Our Dreams We’re Always Running On Ice he builds on the ideas of the first track with organic detailing and a wonderfully attuned sense of arrangement, making the piece seem blissfully effortless. Exquisite.
