Die Wilde Jagd is a German electronic duo by producer and songwriter Sebastian Lee Philip and aided by Düsseldorf based musician Ralf Beck. Since their self titled debut in 2015 I had a huge fondness to their electronic sound and featured them several times at this place. To create a melange of reduced electronic sounds and beats with cryptic German lyrics was new to me. I was lucky enough to see them live a few years ago and was surprised that this kind of music works live very well. The recent days they released a new song with a remix by Ivan Smagghe of a song from their debut album. It's a song I listened often when it was released not only because it offered a jazzy mood in the second half.
This made me listen to another song from their debut. A dark atmosphere with tribal rhythms and electronic eruptions.
Through dark pine trees,
out of senses,
Tightly braced by black trunks
On horses, fast as lightning
Enraptured by the horizon
In remembrance of two gentlemen
With long hair and curls
as dense as blackamoor
Towards the sea
So close to the shark pair
The marriage planned long ago
A unification of what happened
In streams of waves as tall as sails
Standing pallid in the wind
Hoofs step to thunderous drums
Storm sails that sing like harps
Calling ghosts
Who, long yearned for,
let us drift
Into tall forests of tomorrow
The tale is told
of The robber and the prince
