Bluets by Maggie Nelson

And so I fell in love with a colour – in this case, the colour blue – as if falling under a spell, a spell I fought to stay under and get out from under, in turns.

So their fist live album is called „Schleifen“. It implies action, means dragging, smoothing as well as grinding. But it it can also be a much more playful noun: Loops. So we thought, lets go the colorful path, that matches perfectly with Zement’s euphoric, repetitive live shows! We created a 3d rendering of a „Motorikschleife“, a common toy for small children, that now became the cover artwork. And the Video for the first single is a wild ride on these colorful loops.
