Music Matter speaks with Alexander Hacke and Danielle De Piccciotto from the unique music group HackedePicciotto about their new album The Best of hackedepicciotto (Live in Napoli)

The Best of HackedePicciotto (Live in Napoli) is Alexander Hacke and Danielle De Pictiotto's newest release showcasing live interpretations of music from across their career. The album includes reinterpretations of tracks from all of their studio albums: Keepsakes (2023), a tender exploration of friendship and loss, The Silver Threshold (2021), their defiant reaction to the pandemic, Perseverantia (2016), which dealt with the artists nomadic lifestyle, Menetekel (2017), which embodies their collective despair at the state of the world, and powerful energy of The Current (2020), recorded by the Irish Sea. For over 20 years Alexander Hacke (Einstürzende Neubauten) and artist, musician and filmmaker Danielle de Picciotto (co-founder of Love Parade) have been developing and evolving a symbiotic working practise together, with a deep intuition of the kind that has distinguished a rare number of creative and romantic partnerships – think of the writers Joan Didion and John Gregory Dunne, the artists Lee Miller and Man Ray or heroes of independent filmmaking, Gena Rowlands and John Cassavetes – each partnership underlined by a creative equality that allowed both artists freedom to explore and expand. https://www.Instagrm.com/hackedepicciotto https://www.Facebook.com/hackepicciotto https://www.hackedepicciotto.bandcamp.com Website: https://www.hackedepicciotto.de Music Matters podcast is hosted by pro musician, producer, and Sports Illustrated photographer Darrell Craig Harris who is based in Las Vegas, Nevada.
