Web Web with their sixth album in seven years and with a new touch. More psychedelic, sometimes more krauty than before. This time, Web Web in their original line-up (without Max Herre) have (again) chosen a special guest: JJ Whitefield (The Poets Of Rhythm / Karl Hector & The Malcouns / Syrup), who contributes the fantastic guitar sound. His riffs are sometimes funky as with the Poets Of Rhythm or Syrup, or more psychedelic as with Karl Hector & The Malcouns or his many live and studio recordings with Embryo. The sound color of his guitar gives the album the thrust into the wonderful atmosphere of spacey jazz-kraut bands of the seventies. The concept of the album should be the exact opposite of the previous Web Max album (Web max II): Back to the (Web web) roots, with spontaneous, improvised pieces, fragments, ideas that mean the greatest possible liberty and live spirit.
And the idea of bringing JJ Whitefield on board was just as unpredictable and improvised: one day before the session, Roberto Di Gioia thought to himself: "JJ and I have always lived in Munich. But unfortunately, we've never really crossed paths. I'm a great admirer of his art, his music, his way of playing. He is so inspiring because he doesn't compromise. He plays in his own way, he's not a copy of anyone or anything."
So Roberto spontaneously called JJ and asked him if he could imagine playing on one or two songs. JJ immediately said yes, and a day later he was in the studio. They actually only played two songs: One lasted 25 minutes, the other 45 minutes. And most of the tracks (apart from a few others without him) for the album "Plexus Plexus", which means something like: Network, interweaving.
