Ik kan niet zo goed plaatsen waar het door komt, maar thuisloos is hoe het voelt. Alsof ik nergens altijd zou kunnen komen. Alsof ik overal weg gestuurd kan worden en plots niet welkom zou kunnen zijn. Op mijn hoede voor een verkeerde stap, een te hard zuchtje, een vervormde boodschap. Totaal mijn eigen gevoel en eigen probleem, maar vreselijk vermoeiend en zenuwslopend.
Ik dacht laatst terug aan mijn moeders huis, voordat de verbouwing was begonnen. We waren al haar spullen aan het verhuizen, met allemaal mensen waar ik me ongemakkelijk bij voelde, op mijn beste vriendin Maud na. Vol ongemak door de mensen, maar volledig op mijn gemak thuis. Niet omdat ik mijn eigen plek had daar, maar omdat het thuis was. Een plek waar ik het gevoel had dat ik er altijd zou kunnen en mogen zijn.
Tegenwoordig is het mijn moeders huis.
Mijn ouders hun huis. Waar ik mijn kamer had, met mijn konijn Abel, onze katten Bob en Freek. De kippen in de tuin, Radler 0.0 in de tuin waar we eigenlijk nooit zaten, maar dat scheen normaal te zijn met het warme weer. Thuis in de tuin waar ik hooguit drie keer per jaar zat.
Tegenwoordig mijn vaders huis en tuin.

Die drei Fragezeichen - Der dunkle Taipan
Soooo, jetzt will ich endlich was zur Show schreiben! Wer nichts wissen will, liest jetzt bitte nicht weiter.
Ich war total hibbelig, bevor es losging. Meine Freundin fands total witzig und ich wusste quasi nichts mit mir anzufangen, bis es endlich losging :D 
Erstmal zum Merch: Eigentlich wollte ich eine Tasse kaufen, aber die hatten sie nicht mehr (das mach ich dann in Düsseldorf, wenn ich mir die Show nochmal anschaue, dann geh ich früher zum Fanshop). Der Schlüsselanhänger ist toll <3 Der Hoodie auch <3 Und ich bin jetzt arm :D Aber who cares, die drei Fragezeichen sind nur einmal im Jahr (bzw noch nicht mal). Außerdem gönnt man sich ja sonst nichts. Und weil ich mir sonst nichts gönne, musste noch ein Radler getrunken werden. Im fancy Justus-Peter-Bob-Becher für 7,50€ inklusive Becherpfand. Man gönnt sich ja sonst nichts. 
UND DANN GINGS LOS. Omg der Moment, als die Musik losging. Und dann drehten sich die Fragezeichen und die Sprecher standen da auf der Bühne. Einfach so. Ganz normale, echte Menschen. Nicht nur diese Stimmen, die mich seit über 20 Jahren begleiten. Sondern echte Menschen. Wahnsinn.
Die Show war genial, der Fall war sehr spannend und düster. Die ganzen Anspielungen auf alte Fälle waren super, das hat so richtig zur Jubiläums-Tour gepasst. Natürlich gab es auch genug Witze. Überhaupt fand ich das Erlebnis so toll, dass man nicht allein über die WItze gelacht hat, sondern zigtausend Menschen mit einem gelacht haben. Oder gejubelt haben, als die Karte überreicht wurde. Das ist so ein Gemeinschaftsgefühl, das man sonst bei den drei Fragezeichen nie hat. Sonst hört man die Folgen ja eher alleine. Und jetzt sind das auf einmal zigtausend Menschen, die das auch lieben. Und omg ich hab ein wenig geschrien, als Jeffrey erwähnt wurde :D 
Jaaa, ich weiß gar nicht, was ich noch so schreiben soll. Mein Essen ist auch gleich fertig. Es war jedenfalls echt gut und ich freu mich schon, wenn ich in fünf Monaten die Show nochmal sehen kann.

The Lady in the River - A Short Story
Dear Sister. 
I hope my letter reaches you alright, I wasn’t sure about the address. I don’t know why I’m even sending you a real life letter. Maybe I won’t send it after all. I just wanted to tell you about someone. Someone I met over Christmas. Someone… a little special. 
I know you’ll think I’ve gone mad. But before you pass judgement. Just know, before I start my tale, that Berlin is more crazy, than even I could think up. This city is ripe and ready to burst with all the madness and magic that lurks beneath it’s streets. You may not see it, but it’s there. And I met someone over Christmas. Someone mad and magic and much more Berlin that I will ever be. 
Everyone has their Christmas stories. You know most of mine. There’s the Christmas you and I spent together in that cottage by the sea with mum and dad. There’s the first christmas I spent alone with mum, while you were with dad, after the divorce.  And then. Then, there’s the Christmas I spent with the river monster that lives in the Spree. 
I spent Christmas with the river monster who lives in the Spree. Or, at least I think I did. 
But this is how the story ends, not where it begins. 
The story begins in August. It begins on a warm summer afternoon sitting on a bridge in Kreuzberg drinking a beer as the sun slowly crawled towards the horizon. Leaning our backs on the railing while droves of half-drunk half-high Berliners sailed past on their bikes. This is where it began. 
We sat there. A woman and I. She was from Paris. Or, she said she was from Paris. I knew her accent was fake and, when later she whispered in my ear between my sheets, her whispers were in German. I don’t know her name, but her name does not matter. She isn’t important to the story right now. The important thing is, she brought me to the bridge and we sat there. 
We drank beer after beer and the canal beneath our feet kept flowing by. And the more beers I drank the more real her French accent seemed. The more beers i drank the more I felt that I belonged in this city. That the city was mine. That I had not arrived on a plane only two days before and was still slightly jet lagged. We sat there and this is how it began. 
As the sun crept behind the buildings and the shadows got long we were joined by a local. He didn’t speak. He just stood. He was old, too old to be casually hanging out on a bridge on an August night. I don’t know if he was homeless or mad or Jesus come again. You’d understand if you’d been to Berlin, it’s hard to tell here. Sometimes it’s just a fashion statement, sometimes it’s something entirely else. But he was there. Wearing a knee-length, pink, faux fur coat. Can you picture that? In one hand he was holding one of those old midwifes' bags and in the other a curry-wurst. A true Berliner is what he was. 
This man stood on the bridge for a while and stared at the canal flowing past beneath his feet. He picked up an empty beer can and threw it in the water, ran to the other side of the bridge and watched it reappear on the other side. He got down on all four and listened to the river through the asphalt. But this wasn’t the weirdest thing he did. 
The man in the pink coat stood up, he walked to the edge of the bridge and he picked up a bit of his curry wurst gently between two fingers. Dropped it in to the water. Plop it went. And there went another. 
Plop. Plop. Plop. 
Until the entire curry wurst was gone. 
By this point, we had stopped talking and were just watching him go through his little ritual. The bridge was empty but for us. Us and him and what ever he was communing with in the river. What ever it was, it wanted more. Because he opened up his bag and took out a bottle of Radler. Opened it with his teeth and emptied it into the river. Down it went. The scent of lemon and beer drifting up towards us as it disappeared into the stream. 
Now, remember, I was tipsy by this point. Tipsy and jet-lagged. So, of course, I had to interact with this guy. I had to know what he was doing. Pouring a perfectly good meal and drink into the river. I hardly think the local ducks appreciate a lukewarm Radler, so there had to be an explanation. I got up. Swayed a bit. And walked over to him.
“Sir.” I said, praying that he spoke English. Trying not to sound too American. “Are you quite alright?” 
The man turned around and looked at me. His eyes were wild and wide and somewhat nervous. He didn’t speak, he just held up one finger as if telling me to wait. Then, he rummaged through his bag, frantically searching for something. Finding it, and pulling out a tiny flask of purple glitter, stopped with a cork. He walked back to the edge. Leaned over the railing so far I was a little afraid he was going to fall. He undid the cork, pouring the glitter into the stream. It floated on the wind for a second then disappeared from view. 
The man stood there for a bit. Whispering in German, then, he turned back to me. His face was calmer now. As if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. 
 “It’s for the river monster” he said “She grants your wishes”
“The river monster?” I asked “What? Like Nessie?”
“No! No! Not Lake monster! It’s a river. A river. Are you tourist?” 
“I’m new”
He smiled. Then, gently, ever so gently, put his hand on my arm. If I’d been sober I probably would have been a little freaked out. But I wasn’t. 
“She lives in the river, new one. You give her the three magic ingredients. Curry Wurst. A drink. Glitter. She will grant your wish. She is there”
“Right” I said, but something in me listened. Perhaps because of the alcohol. Perhaps because of the jet lag. Something in me thought it sounded reasonable. The man, apparently, decided this answer was good enough, because he just stumbled off in his pink coat. 
Right before he disappeared from view he stopped. Turned around and pointed at me.
“Remember! Remember new one, you may need it!” He shouted. And then he was gone. 
Now. I know what you’re thinking. You’re probably already typing out an email to me. “Becca, For fox sake.” you’re typing “A man in a pink coat tells you there’s a wish granting lady river monster living in the Spree and you believe him. I never should have let you leave”. Well. You may be right. But then, you were always the clever one. 
Anyway. That was in August. That was how it began. Now, as it happened, and as I’m sure mum told you. I got a room near Schlesisches Tor. I know you don’t know where that is, but if you Google Map it, you’ll see it’s by the river. All you need to know is, that as the autumn passed. I often found myself walking over the Oberbaumbrücke for one reason or another. To get food. To go to work. To meet a woman. You know how it is. Or, well. I’m sure you can imagine. 
I’d walk over the bridge and on most days, I’d just be enjoying the view. Thinking about dinner. Trying to avoid walking into people. But. But on some days. On some days I’d remember the man in the pink coat and the glitter floating over the canal as a girl who wasn’t French laughed in the background. 
As the season grew darker I more and more often found myself on the bridge after dark. 
In the shadows of approaching winter, lit by the lights of the city. The river looks different than it does through a haze of alcohol on an August afternoon. It moves differently. And sometimes. Sometimes. I thought I saw a shadow. A ripple. A movement under the surface. A bit of curry wurst bobbing on the surface only to disappear into the depths. Perhaps I was going mad. Perhaps it was just Berlin. Perhaps that is just how rivers behave. We never did live by a river as kids. 
Well. One dark thursday afternoon in late October I was walking down the street. I could feel the wind pulling at my coat and at my mind. I missed the summer afternoons. I missed the sun in dad’s backyard. I missed the warm winds of home. This afternoon felt darker than all the ones that came before it, and perhaps it really was. I was walking over the bridge, and in my sadness and my fatigue. I had bought myself a currywurst. Because, lets be real, in this city you don’t cook on tired thursdays when all you want to do is sleep off whatever Wednesday night left in you. 
I walked over the bridge and I remembered the man in the pink coat. “Remember” he’d told me “You may need it”. And then, I stopped.
I stood there for a bit, staring at the river. Black and deep flowing past beneath me. “Perhaps I need it now” I whispered to myself and then I dropped a bit of curry wurst into the river. 
Now, stay with me. You think I’m mad but please, keep reading sister. I swear. I swear I heard a gulp. I peered over the edge of the bridge and in the water I saw something. A shadow. A shimmer. A ripple. Something moved. I’m sure of it. To this day I’m sure something moved. 
As the winter approached and the city grew darker I got in the habit of walking over the Oberbaumbrücke and dropping a chunk of curry wurst into the spree. I didn’t put much stock into it. It just became a sort of tradition. You know how I am with traditions. 
On the days when I was lonely and sad. On days when I would have called you if my pride didn’t forbid it. On days when the city seemed dark and cold and the river was wide and black and beckoning below my feet. I would reach out a hand and “plop”. Down went my curry wurst. 
I never told you this, I know you were busy with the baby, and I didn’t want to disturb. But December was hard for me. Christmas was approaching and all through the city markets appeared. Christmas lights sprung up and the people around me got happier and more cheerful. All the while I sank into darkness. There were days when I felt fine. But there were more days when I felt nothing at all. And on most days, my insides felt like the waters of the spree. Deep and black and flowing to some unknown end. With no apparent purpose. 
I was walking asleep, smiling asleep, working asleep. And yet, I barely slept. In my mind. On some days I was on the California beaches watching the kids play in the sand. On some days I was on the bottom of the spree far away from all the noises and the stress of the city. On those days I liked walking along the canal and dropping in a bit of curry wurst. A splash of juice. Sometimes a fry. I would do that and I would stare at the black water moving past me steadily flowing with no care for me. 
I would whisper quietly under my breath “I wish someone will come spend Christmas with me”. “I wish someone will call me or send me a letter or show some concern for me”. “I wish I won’t be lonely”. And even though the waters flowed past and made no hint to hear it still made me feel better. It made me feel heard. It made me feel loved. I can’t explain it to you. I know you’re shaking your head right now. Just trust me on this. It helped. 
Now, there’s a thing you won’t know about this city from the pictures. There’s a thing you won’t know from visiting. From living here for a week or a month or a summer. You will only see the surface. The memorials and the cobble stones. The bars and the shops and the parties. The young people in their black outfits high on this and gone on that. You will see the sun shining down through the yards and the shop windows lighting up the streets. But you won’t see what lurks beneath the surface. 
The thing about this city is that most of the people in it are running away. They are all lonely and scared and in search of something. They are here distracting themselves with alcohol and glitter. With weed and designer drugs. With hashtags and smiling selfies and their amount of Facebook friends growing steady day by day. But come monday morning when they all sober up. They’re all lying in their beds in the darkness trying to find a reason to breathe. I know this. I know this because I am here. It might be that Berliners will tell you it’s not true. But some of them. Some of them know what I mean. 
Knowing this. Perhaps it isn’t so strange that an urban legend would grow from the canals of this city. That a whisper would float on down the stream and crawl along the cobblestones at night. A whisper of a river monster. Of a witch or a siren or a river spirit of sorts. Of a lady in the river. A lady who will grant you your wish.
 “Remember, new one. Remember you might need it”.
That’s what the man in the pink coat told me. And standing there, leaning over the railings of Oberbaumbrücke on a December night, half drunk. I needed it. I needed to believe someone was listening. That someone would hear. That someone would grant my wish. My wish of a hug. Of a kiss. Of a strangers hand through the Christmas. I needed to believe in the legend of a river monster that would grant my wish. At the cost of a curry wurst, a bit of my drink and a sprinkle of glitter. For a wish. I could spare that. 
So you know now how it began. You know of the beers and the bridge. Of the girl with the fake French accent and the man with the fake fur and the story. You know of the long summer afternoons and of the darkness that crept into the city and swallowed it whole. And that may all sound believable. But when you read the end, you will shake your head and call mum. You will say “Becca went to Berlin and now she’s out of her mind” “She’s imaging things” “She’s gone mad there. Mad and gay!”. But I promise you I haven’t. Well. Maybe a little bit. But this city is crazy and I am no crazier than the city herself. 
I was standing there on Christmas eve. Somewhere along the Landwehrkanal. I would not be able to tell you where. For lack of a better thing to do I’d been prowling the Christmas markets with friends drinking Glühwein all day. I’ll admit, I was trying to achieve that warm, tired drunk. The one where you can just close your eyes and sleep. I wasn’t successful.
Instead I found myself at something that looked like the Maybachufer but may not have been. Drunkenly leaning on the railing, half falling in. Everyone else had gone home. To their boyfriends or their mothers or their Ex’s second cousin. To someone who cared. To someone they cared for more than they cared for me. 
I took a bite of a lukewarm curry wurst, threw a bit into the stream, took another bite for myself and so on. I basically shared my curry wurst with the canal. I poured in my entire bottle of beer. I figured I didn’t need more alcohol. 
“You there river monster?” I said. Mostly to myself. Mostly to the night. Partly to the monster, although I wouldn’t have admitted it, if you’d asked. Then, I remembered the small bottle of glitter in my bag. A friend had given it to me as a joke, weeks ago. I rummaged through my rucksack and pulled out the bottle. Pulled off the cork with my teeth and emptied the bottle into the stream. 
In the darkness I could not see if the glitter floated on the stream. If it blew away in the wind. If it sank into the black water flowing by. I just let it flow and stood there in my haze, staring in to the night. 
“I wish” I said. Trying to remember the words in German, but ultimately giving up. “I wish for someone to spend Christmas with”. 
I stood there on the edge of the river. And then I sat down on the cold ground with my legs dangling over the edge. Leaning my forehead on the railing I think I may have fallen asleep for a second. 
It was silent. Nothing was happening. Of course. So I just stayed, for lack of a better place to go. 
I heard a splash but I saw nothing and beneath me the river kept flowing on. Gently touching the stone walls that kept it in. 
Then, someone touched my shoulder. Gently. I turned to look and saw a familiar face. I couldn’t quite put my finger on her, but I knew her face. There’s been so many girls. There are so many girls in this city. But this one I knew. 
“You look lonely” She said, and at first I didn’t recognise her voice, although I had heard it before. 
“I am” I said. “You too?”
She smiled. Stretched out her hand and helped me up. Her skin was glistening in the street lights. As if she was wet, or as if she had been crying. Perhaps it was just glitter on her face.
“Oui” She said and that’s when I recognised her. Without the French accent she had seemed a different person but perhaps that was on purpose all along.
“Come… “ She said "The rivers edge is not a good place at this time of night”. 
The Fake Parisienne is who she was, but I guess you figured that out by now. You don’t need to know what we did. I guess you can figure that out by now and it doesn’t really matter all that much. 
What matters is she took my hand and she led me through the city streets. She led me to somewhere warm and she bought me dinner. She kissed my forehead with her soft, wet lips and she embraced me in the night. 
I like to pretend I live an exciting life but, to be honest, I think we just slept. Or I did. I was so tired by then, tired and drunk and sad. I think I just slept in her arms. She held me and I never slept that well. It was as if I slept on a boat. She rocked me back and forth gently, ever so gently. Her arms around me and her legs touching my skin. In my drunken sleep I could have sworn they were tentacles but now I wouldn't be so sure. 
She woke me up in the morning and she had made me gifts. 
“You Americans, you do it like this no?” She asked. Sitting on the floor of my WG room. Her hair was wet, but I didn’t hear her shower. It doesn’t matter if she showered. I’m just trying to describe what she looked like. I know you don’t like women. Not in that way. But, she was beautiful. Her wet hair and her wet skin. Her big green eyes and her lips… Her bare legs. Well. You get the point.
She was just sitting on my floor in a pile of gifts I don’t know where came from. I really don’t know how she did it. They weren’t anything special. A box of matches. A pair of socks. A bottle of water. But they were gifts and that mattered. I don’t even know how she found me by the river or why she even cared.
I don’t believe in Christmas miracles. But she was one. 
“But Becca” you’re probably thinking. “That’s just a pretty German girl pretending to be French” You’re thinking “Didn’t you say she was the river monster?”. 
I did. I did say that. And. I don’t know if she was. What I do know is this. 
She took me with her out of the flat on Christmas day. We walked along the river and we held hands. She wore gloves and they were wet, even though it wasn’t raining. I didn’t question it at the time, but there’s something about that. I can’t quite tell what. 
She walked with me along the canal and over the bridges and then she bought me a curry wurst and she walked out to the middle of Admiralbrucke and she stopped there. 
“Thank you” she said “Or should I say… Merci”
“Thank you for what?” I asked. I was completely perplexed. And maybe a little bit in love. I’m not sure. 
“Thank you for all the Curry Wurst” She said. As if it was the most obvious thing in the world “And the glitter”
I was going to say something. But I didn’t know what to say so I just stood there. Staring at her. Staring at those beautiful green eyes of hers. At her wet gloves and her wet hair. Her hair was still wet. She must have been freezing. 
She took a step forward, put her wet hands on my arms and kissed me. Well. I kissed her back. We kissed. And then, just like that, she was gone. She was gone and I found myself standing in a puddle on the middle of the Admiralbrücke on Christmas Day as snow began to fall. 
I watched the water in the puddle flow gently over the edge and fall into the river. I watched the river flow on beneath my feet as it did back on that one afternoon in August. I watched as the snow covered the bridge and the sky grew dark and the evening crept in. 
I stood there and watched. Alone. She was gone. Just. Gone. Aside from my curry wurst, I didn’t even have proof that she’d ever really been there. 
I must have stood there for an hour. I was getting cold, but what could I do? I couldn’t just leave, could I? I was too confused. Too startled. Too alone. 
Then, someone behind me was laughing. I turned around and there was the man in the pink coat. The one I saw in the summer, remember him?
He looked at me and he smiled. Still wearing the same coat. 
“She’s not coming back” he said.
“She’s a busy lady you know.” He said. "And…” He stopped himself. Grinning. He was clearly very pleased with himself. 
“What?” I said. Well. I probably shouted. “ and WHAT, man?”
“You got your wish, didn’t you?” and then, he just walked off.
So did I. And I never did see her again. 
So. Sister. That’s the story. You can disbelieve it if you will. You can say I’ve gone mad. Or that I’m just making stuff up to get your attention. That might be. But in this city. I can’t tell you what’s real. 
This city is madness. 
Anyway. How was your Christmas?
Thank you for reading. If you want more. You can find more of my stories here.
This story was the last story of my 12 stories project in 2017. This year I’ve been inspired very much by the city of Berlin so with the last story I wanted to try and do the city justice. I’m not sure that’s even possible, but either way, I had fun.
You can read more about my 12 stories project here. Again. Thanks for reading. Feel free to share, comment, whatever floats your boat - it’s all appreciated.
The lady in the river may return next year. I��m still undecided about that. What I know for sure, is that there will be more stories.

Bis zur Unendlichkeit
Ich will gar nicht lang rumpalavern: Ich war bis vor 20 Minuten laufen, sitze nun hier, bin frisch geduscht, neben mir steht ein naturrübes Radler von Oettinger und gleich nachdem ich das hier online gestellt habe, werde ich zum Mond aufbrechen. Und weil es dafür gute Musik braucht, wie eigentlich immer im Leben, will ich euch wieder drei äußerst hörenswerte Alben vorstellen.
youtube
Dieser Typ ist ein echtes Arbeitstier. Dass sein Erfolg in den vergangenen Jahren stetig gewachsen ist, hängt vor allem damit zu tun, dass sich Jack Savoretti scheinbar keine Pause gönnt. Vor vier Jahren erschien Written in Scars, das nicht sein erstes Album war, womit er aber in Europa und letztlich auch in Deutschland gehörig Buzz erzeugte. Schon ein Jahr später veröffentlichte der Brite mit unverkennbaren italienischen Wurzeln das Album Sleep No More, das ein Jahr später, also 2017 noch einmal aufgelegt wurde – diesmal mit einem neuen zusätzlichen Song sowie ausgewählten Live- und Acoustic-Versionen einiger anderer Lieder. Und weil das ja schnell als Schmuh abgetan werden kann, so ein zweiter Aufguss, brachte er noch im selben Jahr Songs From Different Times raus, ein echtes neues Album. Etwa eineinhalb Jahre hat er seitdem pausiert, wobei das vermutlich nicht korrekt ist, wenn man berücksichtigt, dass er 2018 auch auf Tour war. Jetzt, im ersten Quartal 2019, ist schon wieder ein neues Album erschienen. Singing to Strangers heißt es und Savoretti röhrt sich darauf durch 15 Songs, die tadellos zu ihm passen und seiner warmen Stimme schmeicheln. Mittlerweile verfügt die „Man Machine“ über eine hervorragend funktionierende und eingespielte Band, mit der er im vergangenen heißen Sommer in Enrico Morricones Studio, einem Keller unter einer Kirche, das neue Album eingespielt hat. Über die Atmosphäre kann man nur mutmaßen. Aber offenbar floß jede Menge Energie (hoffentlich auch etwas Wein, ich mein ja nur...). Zwei besondere Songs sind auf dem neuen Album enthalten: Der Text von Touchy Situations stammt von Bob Dylan, die Musik dazu hat Savoretti nachträglich komponiert. An Music's too sad without you hat Kylie Minogue mitschreiben und letztlich auch mitsingen dürfen. Es ist das einzige Duett auf dem Album. Singing to Strangers lebt von seinen großartig eingespielten Instrumenten. Die Streicher, die Bassgitarre, die entspannten Drums, dazu die dezent angekratzte Stimme ihres Anführers, der sich souverän durch jeden einzelnen Song croont und dabei kein bisschen müde wird, uns mitfiebern, mitleiden und mitjubeln zu lassen. Ein außerordentlich gutes Album eines außergewöhnlichen Musikers, dem man nur jeden vorstellbaren Erfolg gönnt.

Ist das nicht eines der besten Trennungslieder, das ihr je gehört habt? Also ich schon. Es ist positiv, sehr charmant getextet, macht Spaß und ist doch bitter, weil man das Gefühl nicht los wird, dass hier eine ziemlich tolle Zeit verabschiedet wird. Ferddich ist einer von 12 neuen Song des dazugehörigen niegelnagelneuen Albums BÄMS! von Flo Mega, den ich schon immer für seine durch und durch gute Musik mochte. Seit seinem 2011er Debüt weiß ich, dass deutscher Soul und R'n'B fernab vom peinlichen naidooschen Gottes-Singsang möglich ist. Aber auch ein Flo Mega macht nicht Halt vor zeitgemäßen Sounds und Stimmenverzerrern. Irgendwie gelingt es ihm aber, das so glaubwürdig zu nutzen, dass aus seinem Soul hier und da astreine Discosongs werden, die eben nicht für die Muttis ab 50 sind, sondern geradezu zeitlos zu sein scheinen. Es macht unfassbar viel Spaß, dieses Album zu hören. Immer wieder entdeckt man neue Überraschungen – ganz gleich, ob sie textlicher oder instrumentaler Art sind. Da wird sogar die Kollaboration mit den Fantastischen Vier zum echten Highlight (F.U.N.K.) und es dürfte einen nicht wundern, wenn Megas Unterstützer sich hier eingestehen müssen, dass sie lange nicht so gut waren. Atomraketen, Leute. Hört Atomraketen. Es macht so derbe Laune, diesen durch und durch auf 80er getrimmten, aber unfassbar gelungenen Song zu hören. Dieser Beat, dieses flirrende Saxophon, dazu dieser Text über den Start einer großen Liebe. Himmel, kauf dieses Album. Kauft es gleich 3x, verschenkt es und diesem Kerl endlich den Erfolg, den er schon seit Ewigkeiten verdient.

Und wo wir gerade bei deutscher Musik sind, machen wir mit Puder weiter. Hinter Puder verbirgt sich die Hamburger Musikerin Catharina Boutari, die ich schon seit ihrem Debütalbum Puder sehr schätze. Dann war es lange still um das Projekt. Der Grund: Boutari wagte ein Experiment. Sie schloss sich eine Zeit lang mit im Grunde fremden Musikern ein, bastelte mit ihnen innerhalb weniger Tage an neuen Songs, nutze dabei zum Teil ziemlich besondere Instrumente, nahm diese Songs am Ende der Session mitunter vor Publikum auf und bastelte eben einfach mal nicht zwei bis drei Jahren an diesem Material. Die ersten beiden Sessions sind 2017 in einem Schwung als Session Tapes 1+2 erschienen, nun folgte unlängst der lang erwartete Abschluss dieser Trilogie: Session Tapes 3 – Geschichte vom Ende der Welt. Boutari lotet hier im Grunde aus, was möglich ist. Dass es nicht viel braucht, außer echte Begeisterung für Musik und Herz und Mut, um innerhalb kürzester Zeit Neues zu kreieren. Zehn Tage hat sich die Musikerin diesmal weggesperrt. Erst mit Sparringspartner Tom Gatza, bis dann nach und nach einige weitere Musiker hinzukamen und die Songs runder machten, bevor das fertige Material vor Publikum präsentiert und aufgenommen wurde. Das Ergebnis kann man jetzt genießen und sich fast nur wünschen, dass es ihr viele Musiker nachtun. Überhaupt sollte Musikmachen vielleicht immer so ablaufen. Selbst wenn am Ende nur fünf Songs herauskommen (Session Tapes 1+2 besteht aus 12 Songs, also sechs pro Session.), wirken sie aufrichtiger als vieles von dem, was uns der deutsche Mainstream-Pop als ach so heiligen Gral verkaufen will.

REVIEW CAPTAIN KOMBUCHA
Een twee tal weken geleden stonden ze daar dan. De eigenzinnige flesjes van Captain Kombucha. Ik had ze al eens op insta zien langs komen en ik had er al een keer mee in mijn handen gestaan bij de ekoplaza maar op een of andere reden schrikte het woordje FERMENTED DRINK mij enigszins af en zette ik de flesje weer terug in het schap. Toen ik in contact kwam met D-drinks en zei mij vroegen of ik het leuk zou vinden om deze voor mij wat vreemde drankjes te testen zei ik natuurlijk geen nee!
In het pakketje wat ik ontving zaten 4 smaken: Original, Coconut Summer Beach, California Raspberry en de smaak Cayennepeper.
Als eerste is het misschien fijn als ik even kort uitleg wat de legendarische gefermenteerde drankjes van Captain Kombucha nu precies zijn.
FERMENTEREN
Kombucha is een verantwoorde drank die ontstaat door een fermentatie proces. Fermenteren is het proces waarbij bacteriën en onder andere schimmels, gisten worden gebruikt om voedingsmiddelen te maken. Nu klinkt dit misschien niet zo aantrekkelijk maar bedenk je maar eens dat het biertje wat je laatst op een terrasje dronk of het bakje yoghurt waar je vanmorgen je muesli doorheen roerde ook tot stand komen door fermentatie. Dan maakt het al een stukje minder spannend toch?!
Tumblr media
WAT IS KOMBUCHA
Kombucha is een gefermenteerde thee drank en wordt onder andere gemaakt van groene thee, water en rietsuiker. En nu hoor ik jullie van de suikerpolitie al roepen SUIKER! Maar de suiker is nodig in het proces van de fermentatie, het voedt de bacterie en gist. Er blijft wel een deel van de suiker over maar niet zoveel als in normale frisdranken. Ik drink zelf normaal altijd water en dan is af een toe zn drankje waar suiker in zit lekker voor de afwisseling en dat moet zeker kunnen als het maar in balans is met de rest van je voeding en levensstijl!
Het is trouwens ook nog biologisch, vegan, raw en glutenvrij. Daarnaast zitten er verschillende gezondheid voordelen aan dit drankje en bevat het probiotica. Zo verbeterd het je spijsvertering en immuunsysteem, dus goed voor de darmen en het schijnt zelfs stress te verminderen.
Maar nu genoeg gelul 🙊 Hoe smaakt het is misschien wel de belangrijkste vraag. Uit de 4 smaken koos ik als eerste de kokos smaak.
COCONUT SUMMER BEACH
Ik draaide het flesje open en was eigenlijk het meest benieuwd naar de geur. Het deed me als eerste denken aan de geur van gluhwein, maar na een tweede keer ruiken rook ik duidelijk de kokos geur. De smaak is kruidig, licht zuur en ik proef duidelijk de kokos. Het is echt zn drankje van “you love it or you hate it” of zoals een ander drank merk zo goed kan omschrijven “een beetje vreemd maar wel lekker!” Echt een drankje voor op een zonnige strand die gelukkig niets met de gluhwein achtige geur te maken heeft.
Tumblr media
CALIFORNIA RASPBERRY
Na mijn eerste post op Instagram werd ik al door een aantal van jullie getipt dat ik de California Raspberry echt snel moest proberen. De drankjes hebben een beetje een “kick” en dat kon ik zeker wel gebruiken bij mijn keelontsteking midden in de zomer. En hopelijk zou het mijn immuunsysteem een kleine boost kunnen geven. Ik proef duidelijk de Raspberry smaak, lekker fruitig. Hij geeft me het gevoel van een cava of een ander bruisend fruitig wijntje. Erg Lekker!
CAYENNEPEPER
Tegen deze smaak zag ik eigenlijk het meeste op. Ik houdt zelf wel van pittig maar dan bij het eten en niet zo zeer in mijn drankjes. Maar de smaak veraste me. Kruidig en brand lekker na (Goed voor de keel dus) en ook deze smaak heeft net zoals de andere smaken lekker veel bruis/bubbels en dat is wel erg lekker als je echt goede dorst hebt.
ORIGINAL
Deze smaak testte ik met opzet als laatste. Ik dacht als ik eerst alle smaakjes kan testten dan kan ik misschien beter de origineel smaak omschrijven. Ook deze is weer licht zurige. Deze doet me in de verte aan bier of radler denken. En nu ik dit zo zit uit te typen zou ik het beter kunnen omschrijven als de smaak van Shandy, wat ik vroeger dronk toen ik nog te jong was voor echt bier. Lekker op een terrasje met ijs erin als je een keer de bob bent. Ja deze vind ik na alle smaakjes geproefd te hebben toch wel echt de lekkerste.
EINDCONCLUSIE
Dit drankje is een perfect alternatief voor een alcoholisch drankje wat mij betreft. Lekker in een wijnglas met wat ijs op een terrasje in het zonnetje. Of gewoon lekker tussen al het water drinken door.
Zelf proberen? Captain Kombucha is oa te koop bij Ekoplaza, Marqt en ik zag ze ook in de webshop van Body & Fit shop.
