In support of their new studio offering “Oase”, released on November 22, 2024 through Stickman Records, Weite -the Prog-Psych/Krautrock band featuring Nicholas DiSalvo (Elder, Delving), Michael Risberg (Elder, delving), Ingwer Boysen (delving), Ben Lubin (Lawns) and Fabien deMenou (Perilymph) – is gearing up for their much-awaited album release tour, kicking off this Friday in Halle, Germany! Make sure to catch Weite live at the following dates:

Weite was formed in Berlin in winter 2022 by bassist Ingwer Boysen recruiting drummer Nick DiSalvo and guitarists Michael Risberg and Ben Lubin. Initially intended as a one-off recording session, the four recognized an obvious musical chemistry and common ground and decided to turn the project into a proper band. Keyboardist Fabien deMenou joined in 2024.
“Oase” is their sophomore album, and the follow-up to the band’s 2023 debut LP “Assemblage.” Clocking in at almost an hour, “Oase” – German for “Oasis” – takes listeners on an intricate and textured journey that draws inspiration from the pioneering spirit of 70s Psychedelic Rock, blending influences from “Canterbury Scene” Prog, Krautrock, early Electronica, Post-Rock and Americana. The new album showcases Weite‘s ability to merge the old with the new, creating an immersive, exploratory sound that moves from contemplative and pastoral to riffy and doomy without ever sacrificing melody. “Oase” is characterized by longer expansive, atmospheric compositions yet is undoubtedly more composed than the band’s debut, with more of a focus on songs, albeit in the broader sense of the word. With the focus on melody, texture and mood – although not necessarily always in that order – Weite create a sound that’s intricate and meditative, inviting the listener to embark on a journey through shifting soundscapes and evolving musical narratives.
