Our Take

Ah, Andreas Dorau, the German pop maestro whose eccentricity knows no bounds. In his latest release, "Das Wesentliche," Dorau takes us on a whimsical journey through his musical universe, filled with catchy hooks and quirky melodies.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, it's clear that Dorau isn't afraid to push the boundaries of pop music. His unique blend of electronic beats and retro synths creates a sound that is equal parts nostalgic and futuristic.

Tracks like "Tanz den Tanz" and "Vergessenes Herz" showcase Dorau's playful songwriting style, with lyrics that are as clever as they are catchy. And on slower tracks like "Wie Du," Dorau proves that he's just as adept at tugging at heartstrings as he is at getting feet moving on the dancefloor.

But what truly sets "Das Wesentliche" apart is Dorau's willingness to take risks. Whether he's experimenting with unconventional song structures or throwing unexpected sonic twists into the mix, Dorau keeps listeners on their toes from start to finish.

In the end, "Das Wesentliche" is a delightful romp through the mind of one of Germany's most unique musical talents. With its infectious energy and undeniable charm, this album is sure to leave a smile on your face and a spring in your step. Andreas Dorau may be unconventional, but one thing is for certain - he knows how to make a damn good pop song.
