Their debut album will be released via Melting Pot Music, featuring a unique blend of hip-hop, krautrock, tropicalia, spiritual jazz and ambient music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwit One has been shaping the Cologne beat and hip-hop scene for more than 15 years as a DJ, producer, radio host, and co-manager of the Groove Attack record store. For Twit, hip-hop is less of a genre and more of an attitude and cultural practice deeply rooted in African-American music history. With The Twit 1, II, Three, he brings his sonic vision into a band context for the first time. He is joined by the classically trained musician Maxime von Koblinski on the vibraphone and Niklas Schneider from the Cologne kraut-pop band Keshavara on drums. Twit acts as the musical director, \u0026amp;nbsp;provides \u0026amp;nbsp;samples and concepts while occasionally playing the bass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 2024, The Twit 1, II, Three self-released a C20 cassette tape limited to 100 copies and performed at the following venues and festivals: Week-End Festival (Cologne), Soundball Festival (Cologne), Philharmonie (Essen), Schleuse 2 (Düsseldorf), Aktionshaus (Berlin), De Duivel (Amsterdam)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollowing these shows, the band spent a year and a half working on their debut album at Satori Studio in Cologne-Müngersdorf. The self-titled album will be released in October 2026 and breaks down musical barriers, with hip-hop, krautrock, tropicalia, spiritual jazz, and ambient forming its core pillars. A conventional description would be \"Twit One fully produced with real instruments.\" A more poetic one would be \"Sun Ra and J Dilla on their way to Jupiter, with a stopover in Montreux.\" Eight out of the ten tracks are instrumental. Guest vocals are provided by two long-time musical friends who also release music via MPM: Reginald Omas Mamode IV and Turt (Summers Sons).
