More than fourteen million people have watched on YouTube to date how the musician Monolink, high up on the Mayan Warriors' truck shining in a thousand colors at the Burning Man Festival, played towards the sky in the Nevada desert. Live, he combined guitar and vocals with electronic spheres of sound, and in front of him in the sand the dancers dissolved, like the sun in the rising night. Monolink's real name is Steffen Linck. And in recent years, as a singer/songwriter who enriches his compositions with electronic music, he has gained an audience between Fusion and Coachella Festival that is virtually in exponential growth. Now his second album is released, an intense experience that you can let get to you and dance off just as carefully. But in both ways, "Under Darkening Skies" tells of the impact of the world. After the sold-out 2018 show at Exil, Monolink comes back to Zurich for a big headline show at X-TRA.
Über vierzehn Millionen Menschen haben sich bis heute bei YouTube angeguckt, wie der Musiker Monolink, hoch oben, auf dem in tausend Farben strahlenden Truck der Mayan Warriors auf dem Burning Man Festival, in der Wüste Nevadas in Richtung Himmel spielte. Live kombinierte er Gitarre und Gesang mit elektronischen Klangsphären und vor ihm im Sand lösten sich die Tänzer auf, wie die Sonne in der aufkommenden Nacht. Monolink heisst eigentlich Steffen Linck. Und er hat sich in den letzten Jahren als Singer/Songwriter, der seine Kompositionen mit elektronischer Musik anreichert, ein Publikum zwischen Fusion und Coachella Festival erspielt, das sich geradezu im exponentiellen Wachstum befindet. Jetzt erscheint sein zweites Album, eine intensive Erfahrung, die man an sich heranlassen kann und genauso vorsichtig abtanzen. Doch auf beiden Wegen erzählt "Under Darkening Skies" von der Wirkung der Welt. Nach der ausverkauften Show 2018 im Exil kommt Monolink zurück nach Zürich und spielt eine grosse Headline-Show im X-TRA.
