Influences
Ike Turner, Jerry Lee Lewis, Jimmy McGriff, Billy Preston, Sly, Bill Doggett, André Brasseur, Medeski Martin and Wood (some stuff at least), Korla Pandit, Mr. Quintron, Cramps, Crypt, Stax, Sun, Specialty, all wild gospel, all wild R&B, and of course every cheap tearjerker ever made.
DAS ALDI COMBO greedingly looks for the gems in contemporary music; souljazz like Jimmy McGriff, Rock & Roll, a ballad or rather something by The Cramps? It doesn’t really matter, because the way DAS ALDI COMBO adresses it’s music to the crowd, even makes a stiff Scotchman feel like he was born to dance.
Nobody ever noticed, but it’s only fair to admit; DAS ALDI COMBO only plays instrumentals. We should be grateful for that, ‘cause so much good music gets lost because of a bad singer. Drums, bass, saxophone and Hammond-organ turn out to be more than enough to drive both the gentlemen on stage and the crowd in front of them into a state of total excitement.
DAS ALDI COMBO, of which the bassplayer normally plays piano in a bigband, while the drummer and organplayer also reside in resp. sixties-garageband The Firebirds and soulpunkers Green Hornet, plus a sax-player of Jammah Tammah fame, will soon release it's first album. Don’t make us wait to long gentlemen!
The unique formula of DAS ALDI COMBO already set many a venue ablaze. I only need to mention the Gasolinebar during the Eurosonic festival, or this time the gentlemen were opening up for (ahum) The Fun Lovin’ Criminals (or was it Fine Young Cannibals; they don’t remember exactly). Say nomore! Europe can be proud to have DAS ALDI COMBO!
