Lassen wir Ernst Molden sprechen: 'Alle paar Jahre wird, spektakulär oder ganz nebenbei, der Beweis erbracht,
dass die britische Popmusik eben doch die klügere ist, weil halt die leichtere und zugleich belesenere,
die spielerischere und doch profundere. Anfang 2008 (und auch Mitte 2009) ist der Kronzeuge dafür ein Wiener in Canterbury,
nämlich ROBERT ROTIFER, unterm Arm sein neues Album 'Coach Number 12 of 11'.
Rotifers Musik ist längst keine österreichische mehr, wenn sie es denn jemals war. Seine neue Platte,
wie schon das Vorgängeralbum "Before the Water Wars", ist englischer Pop, erdacht, aufgeschrieben und gesungen
von einem Auswanderer aus Wien. Coach Number 12 of 11 ist eine Tanzplatte in der vielleicht raffiniertesten und
am schwersten beherrschbaren Disziplin im Rock'n'Roll: good-time-music a la Ray Davies,
die die Bewusstseinserweiterung am Hörer schleichend und damit wohl am nachhaltigsten durchführt.'
Und Darren Hayman sagt: 'Robert is good too, very good. I might even say he's one of the best Kent based
Austrian songwriters in the business and I know a few.'

Translated into English:
Let Ernst Molden say: 'Every few years, spectacular or very incidentally, the proof
that the British pop music but also smarter, because holding the lighter while belesenere,
the playful, yet profound. Early 2008 (and even mid-2009) is the leniency for a Viennese in Canterbury,
ROBERT ROTIFER namely, under his arm his new album "Coach Number 12 of 11 '.
Rotifers music is not Austrian far more if it ever was. His new album,
like the previous album "Before The Water Wars," is English pop, conceived, written and sung
by an emigrant from Vienna. Coach Number 12 of 11 is a dance record in perhaps the most refined and
most difficult to control discipline in Rock'n'Roll: good-time music a la Ray Davies,
the enlargement of consciousness listeners insidiously and probably carries the most sustainable. "
And Darren Hayman says: 'Robert is good too, very good. I might even say he's one of the best Kent based
Austrian songwriters in the business and I know a few. "

Als Sänger und Songwriter der Indierock-Band HEFNER war DARREN HAYMAN in den Neunzigern
mit nahezu jeder Veröffentlichung in John Peels legendärer BBC-Radioshow zu Gast.
Eine Würdigung, die auch dem Synthesizer-lastigen Nachfolgeprojekt THE FRENCH zu Teil wurde.
Seit geraumer Zeit veröffentlicht er unter eigenem Namen 'personal songs about citylife and heartbreak.'
In Robert Rotifers Worten: 'Im Nachhinein betrachtet ist es nur schwer nachzuvollziehen,
warum augenblicklich mitreissende Songs wie 'Pull Yourself Together', 'The Hymn for the Cigarettes', '
The Greater London Radio' oder das gleichzeitig sentimentale und rückhaltlos boshafte '
The Day That Thatcher Dies' nie zu universellen Gassenhauern werden durften.
" Sein aktuelles Album 'Pram Town' ist ein weiterer Beleg seiner Meisterklasse.

Translated into English:
As a singer and songwriter of the indie rock band Hefner DARREN HAYMAN was
with nearly every publication guest in the legendary John Peel BBC radio show in the nineties.
An assessment valid also for the synthesizer-heavy follow-on project THE FRENCH.
For some time he published under his own name 'personal songs about city life and heartbreak. "
Speaking in the words of Robert Rotifer: 'In retrospect, it is very difficult to understand
why instantly stirring songs like 'Pull Yourself Together', 'The Hymn For The Cigarettes',
'The Greater London Radio ' or the both sentimental and unreservedly spiteful
'The Day That Thatcher Dies' never had commercial success.
"His latest album 'Pram Town' is a further proof of his master class.
