The video call with Rupert Keplinger and Gunnar Schroeder from Universum25 for the new album “Die Maschinen wollen leben” takes place on a late afternoon in January. Rupert is there at the minute. After a brief small talk about where we are at the moment, he grabs his cell phone. Gunnar is slightly late, the appointments are tightly scheduled. Just as Rupert unlocks his cell phone, Gunnar is on the call. “I thought you were having a heart attack or something,” jokes Rupert. “Considering my advanced age, or what?” Gunnar immediately jokes back. The chemistry between the two of them is also clear in the subsequent conversation about “The machines want to live”, which you can read about in our March/April issue.
