Vinylrausch #76 – Starke Frauen, gestern und heute

In the organizer's words:

With Horses (1975), Patti Smith injects new life into worn-out rock music. The music is fresh, unpolished and loud, and the delirious lyrics are delivered by Smith with untamed enthusiasm and vehemence.

In England, Patti Smith's album inspired the formation of one of the first all-female punk bands: on Cut (1979), The Slits developed a radically unique, archaic sound that combined reggae grooves with dissonant guitars and polyrhythmic patterns.

Doechii breaks with the expectations of a modern rap singer on Alligator Bites Never Heal (2024). She counters the hypersexualized staging of a stereotypical role model in the rap/hip-hop/R&B mainstream with the image of an open, vulnerable, experimental and self-confident female artist.

Vinylrausch #76 is characterized by strong women and connects widely divergent musical styles by looking at strategies of female self-empowerment.

A diverse and certainly inspiring last frenzy before the summer break!

Our guest will be the extremely well-informed Berthold Seliger, who is once again presenting the Patti Smith concerts in Germany this year!

At Vinylrausch we listen to vinyl albums as works of art: from an excellent sound system, loud and concentrated in a dark cinema room, with introductions and song lyrics and band photos on the screen at the same time.
