a decade has passed since tobias freund and max loderbauer aka non standard institute (nsi) released their enigmatic collection of non-standards. playing with mystery is the name of the game here as well. the new cd, entitled with the code 5863, is the result of collecting creative moments over years and stringing together twenty short pieces that jointly amount to almost an hour of playtime.
in the mid 90s, while playing in bands, max wŸrden started to record ideas on 4-track tapes. amongst other instruments the guitar was his favourite. since then the guitar is a steady constant during his sound production. predominantly he utilizes the intrument in experimental ways: he sticks screws and metal pieces between the strings or let s marbles run down the guitar neck, triggering a feedback, which becomes the foundation of a track. on his album momentum he went beyond the guitar, but he placed the intrument into focus of the production. max creates energyladen and experimental ambient music that always aims for what genre listeners looking for: the ultimate relaxation moment. the tracks are carried by slowly building string-generated sounds. live recordings and complex arrangements find a delicate symbiosis of ambient and strings.
pastoral/tropical soundscapes and post-brutalist compositions by max loderbauer and jacek sienkiewicz from their ÒendÓ cd seem to evoke those situations where can actually hear objects, shapes and time flow itself, a sort of synaesthesia which erases and obliterates beginnings and ends of events, processes and phenomena. apocalyptic and contemplative spaces generated by this pair of seasoned sound creators explode genre bastions of ambient and idm, leading into the spectral areas once explored by such pioneers and popol vuh or ilhan mimaroglu. above all, etheric and extra-sensitive ÒendÓ marks the meeting of two incurable individualists, who use various tools of their trade to come up with a surprisingly atemporal effect, an insistent pulse of detail on an ever-morphing background. without vivid commentary and recognizable soundbites of the present, ÒendÓ is simultaneously an interesting projection of hopes and anxieties of the new age. core of tracks included on the record has been produced on the occasion of max and jacek appearing as a live duo during 2015Õs berlin atonal festival, which resulted in well received Òalpine-tatra-himalaianÓ ep Òridges-. remaining compositions are natural conclusion of their friendship, conversations, meetings, trips and recording sessions that operate according to the rule of free improvisation with a reduced instrumental setup.

he is a multicoloured shades artist. he is poetry, he is stoic. he interfaces the differences without self-denying. he is a dancer. he is a videoartist. he is an entertainer. he was a girl
max cooper, einer der angesehensten produzenten in der elektronischen musik, gelingt mit seinem debuet human ein explosiver sprung in voller laenge. resident advisor hat ihn schon dreimal zum top-live-act oder dj gekuert und verglich seine arbeit mit goreki und glass. human ist ein meditatives downtempo meisterwerk.
instead of fixing its eye on the pop scene, golden anchor settles down in a place where acoustic craftsmanship reigns over rising neo debates. it is an album that highlights the imperfection of our beings without wasting a single word in the process.
>o f f love ist ein trŠumerischer romantiker. ein digital native zwar, doch keiner, der sich Ÿber das digitale netzwerk selbst darstellt oder den spielregeln der inszenierung beugt. informationen Ÿber ihn sind rar und werden es erstmal auch bleiben. im dunklen dickicht leuchtet das licht manchmal doch am hellsten.< sebastian wei§
