11 FRIENDS FOR VIVA CON AGUA!

We are proud to support a young charity organisation from Hamburg/ St Pauli with music from us and our friends: Viva Con Agua (VcA)

11 musicians and bands contribute their songs for a compilation - this number suits the football-history of VcA connected to the legendary Hamburg club FC St Pauli. Viva Con Agua is a young charity organisation located in St. Pauli/Hamburg campaigning for clean drinking water worldwide. The unconventional water initiative has a special affinity to the sub-cultural and music youth culture in Germany, with supporters organizing concerts, parties, fashion shows, football matches, marathons, exhibitions,  massages - yes even massages.

One of us (“The German”) travelled to Ethiopia with them, became friends with the group and the idea of supporting their efforts was born. The cover picture shows an Ethiopian round house in which the travel group slept for a night, after an unforgettable ceremony for new drinking wells. Five drilled wells were constructed in the millennium village of Sodo.

RELEASE TOMORROW (25.09.2009) - we’ll celebrate this with a block party on the legendary Reeperbahn in Hamburg, together with Viva Con Agua. Many artists from the compilation will perform or dj, starting at 19h, check out more infos here and on Facebook.

Especially for the VcA event this friday a few artists painted and sprayed old vinyls - combined with a download code they are pieces of art AND digital records! All revenues go to VcA. Involved are: Mittenimwald, Alexandra Lier, Straßenköter, Holzweg, Herr Plorin, Lauter Kollektiv and Matze Lenz. Great stuff.. We’ll post some pix on our website. And thanks to finetunes for supporting this idea.

Thanx so much to the musicians, artists and brains involved!
