an immense sonic wave rises from the stormy and murky sea and brings a long forgotten rhythm back to life. it is only apparent for a very short time before it again slowly dissapears and levels with the surface. while still visible two unknown sonic vessels are spotted, each containing recognizable patterns from the original wave. you instantly shiver as the mighty and always well equalized shed sets his course for the land of berlin-dub-deepness and you realize that the second vessle is bound for southern lattitudes and will travel many nautical miles until it reaches the electrified island of sound synthesis. limited coloured vinyl.

bedlam isrc – asylum limbo, psychotic sock draw and raving halfway-house ... some truths – man as samovar, staunch somnambulist, man as memory…aural yves klein seas sluiced from a flotilla of ohm-loan bugbrand & electro-harmonix vessels ... a sound accrued by loitering long at skipjack tables & tape duplicating plants ... the joyous melancholy seeping from this lps patched folk o ertones has been a reassuring cloak for me since its porous ones & twos dripped into the mm inbox. an album you can wear whose universal backstory is told deftly via these gilt-edged electronic daubs without sugar-coating – there is none of this soundtrack to a film yet to be made clotting up the ear canals…a basking shark of an album that gently filters the ill from the krill. some truths are bigger than others.

it is neither a new computer game, nor a novelist - but most certainly the tightest live formation that jazz & milk has to offer to date! gta hoffmann sips out of your ear, sways your hips and bypasses the vessels of your awareness, 120 times per minute. three musicians, experienced in diverse and manifold musical areas, play their own and unique creation of live dance music. beni brachtel, aka bartellow (guitar), lukas rabe (keys) and gabriel hahn (drums) operate their instruments as armatures of turning knobs, sliders and effect pedals and pave their way through earthy rnb grooves, wooden house and analogue elevator-minimalism. as improvisers and composers they love to play with shapes, moods and all types of sounds. the result is pure energy, which inspires deep listening, immersion and dancing. what appears to be an artificially produced electronica record is in fact the live sound of a trio, which levitates through space and time - far away from any musical categorization - while sonically complementing and reorganizing earthly pulse.
