Random/Control was David Helbock's most important project for many years.
The three musicians from Vorarlberg celebrated their 15th anniversary last year and performed hundreds of concerts together all over the world. After the release of three albums - Random/Control (Traumton 2010), Think of Two (Traumton 2014) and Tour d'Horizon (ACT 2018) - the band is ready for a new program and new adventures. The album Think of Two, which is dedicated to the two music legends Thelonious Monk and Hermeto Pascoal, impressed Hermeto himself so much that he contributed to it and recorded especially for Random/Control in Brazil.
The trio's trademark is and remains its many instruments - just three musicians, but well over 20 instruments. Inspired by this variety of sound possibilities, David Helbock, who concentrates on the piano and some percussion, has composed many new pieces, setting poems by William Blake, Emily Dickinson and others to music.
Now the trio has invited Fola Dada to sing these very poems. Fola Dada is an extremely versatile artist and can be described as a pioneer when it comes to combining different genres in song. She has become an integral part of the German jazz and soul scene and was awarded the German Jazz Prize in the singing category in 2022.
