Fresh Sounds: Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange – Prayer For Peace
Melbourne/Berlin dance jazz project Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange released a single Prayer For Peace, from the band's forthcoming same-titled new album.
After a steady rise to international recognition through 2 LPS and several EP’s already since 2018, Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange joins the Get Together family for their first recording session in Europe. Prayer For Peace — A 8 track journey through atmospheric scenes, broken to deep four on floor rhythms and colourful top lines. This session captures the raw energetic fusion of such diverse and innovative musicians scene co-existing in the Techno capital of the world. This city already has its own sound, its own attitude. It's no wonder artists gather from every corner of the world to discover themselves through the lens of the city. That is the sound of the ‘Zeitgeist Berlin era’ the group explores deeper, darker sounds of the club emerging from their signature hip-slinging disco, funk fusion.
This Recording represents the Berlin chapter of the Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange. The curated jam band moniker of Ziggy Zeitgeist, the experiment having emerged from the murky depths of the Melbourne underground. Zeitgeist arrived in Berlin in summer 2019 wasting no time in assembling a talented and diverse group of assorted freaks from many corners of the world to bring their own languages, melodies, rhythms and swagger on this cross continental meeting point.
