    The Green Man (TGM) & Kingz – Changes (22 Years of Basswerk)

    The Green Man & Kingz first met and started making and performing music together in 1997 following The Green Man’s „Infinity“ release, which touched Kingz’ musical nerve. In 1998 they were both part of the Basswerk Sessions Vol. 1 compilation and Kingz became Cologne’s most accepted MC with a residency at Basswerk Sessions and touring through Germany, but stopped performing in 2001. It wasn’t until 2016 that they started making music again - having been connected as friends during the years. The widely appreciated “The moment is now“ track (relased 2016/ Basswerk 39) marked their comeback. The focus moved more to production and Kingz really took the place as a vocalist and lyricist. With a Basswerk’s 20 years anniversary release planned which got support by Kulturamt Köln in 2017, they elaborated their intersections in musical taste and histories culmulating in their very own sound.

    The album is also about political and life themes/issues of our time. They discussed and debated lyrical themes, which came to life and on point with the help Kingz’ wife Vera Obeng. One track after another emerged and it became clear that this would be more than a compilation contribution, instead it became a whole new album project. However it wasn’t finished until the very end of 2018 and took them more than 2 ½ years of intense work to realise the visions and bring everything on point.

    Additionally, various musicians did remixes of „The moment is now“ (including Basswerk resident Decon, Basicand Thorsten Quaeschning). They will be released on a separate EP.

    So this album, the Remix-EP and also the above mentioned compilation are now part of a series of „22 Years of Basswerk“ releases in 2019 (supported by Kulturamt Köln). Check out the main other part of the project: „The Green Man (TGM) presents: 22 Years of Basswerk/ The Collab Sessions“ (CD with 16 collab tracks/remixes by The Green Man (TGM) with Digital, Klute, Aqua Sky, Skarra Mucci, David Boomah, Gregor Schwellenbach, Gourski, Seibel, Navigator, Freeze, Chevy, Brian Brainstorm, Thorsten Quaeschning (Tangerine Dream), Triou, FR33M4N & Zera) and various 2019 releases/ EP’s.

lyrics

We Keep Destroying the World

We keep destroying the world - As it twirls

For me it's a mystery with all that history

Need to touch ground
Enough is enough of this merry go round

Getting dizzy and bewildered now let’s nail this one down

Over and over falling into same trap

For ever and ever stepping into the same crap



So devastating seeing lands divided

How they can be so misguided?

Divide and conquer to feel empowered 

It's the enemy's hour - they need to devour 


You'd think once bitten twice shy

I guess the effect blurs as time goes by

Committing blunder after blunder

No end to the thunder

For me it's a mystery with all that history

Why we keep on going under

Feeling the union I live in

In this continent I dwell in 

Things weren't decided on emotion

Our destiny deliberately chosen

So excuse my confusion

When I see the lack of fusion 


Feeling the union I live in

Just one world we’re given

Let's focus on unity - at least socially
Steering unanimously 

Enough conflicts division

Let’s make that our decision
