for the past two years, nils frahm has been building a brand new studio in berlin to make his 7th studio album titled all melody, which will be released on january 26th, 2018 via erased tapes, before nils embarks on his first world tour since 2015.
since the day nils first encountered the impressive studio of a family friend, he had envisioned to create one of his own at such a large scale. fast forward to the present day and nils is now the proud host of saal 3, part of the historical 1950s east german funkhaus building beside the river spree. it is here where he has spent most of his time deconstructing and reconstructing the entire space from the cabling and electricity to the woodwork, before moving on to the finer elements, building a pipe organ and creating a mixing desk all from scratch with the help of his friends. this is somewhere music can be nurtured and not neglected, and where he can somewhat fulfil his pursuit of presenting music to the world as close to his imagination as possible.

claude debussy (+1918) was one of the most popular and forward thinking composer associated with impressionist music. his innovative and at this time new way to compose music with non traditional scales and chromaticism inspired countless artists from the likes of steve reich, philip glass, miles davis and herbie hancock. remarkable attributes of his music were i.e. the usage of parallel chords, bitonality and many compositions of whole-tone and pentatonic scales and all this surely reminds us on contemporary electronic music where you hardly find limits or boundaries when it comes to traditional, harmonic sounding scale tone music. after studying countless composers of the last centuries marc romboy decided to accept the challenge to edit, remix and reconstruct several works of his favorite french composer, ranging from ãla merÒ to -pr�lude � l apr�s-midi d un fauneÒ. romboy: ãone sentence of debussy impressed me a lot when he said that he simply intents to write new sounding music. this is and has been exactly my goal, to create kind of unheard soundsÒ. on the album romboy performs together with the dortmund philharmonic orchestra, the renowned conductor ingo-martin stadtm�ller, the well respected d�sseldorf based concert master miki kekenj and sound programmer ali khalaj. the recordings was directed december 12th 2016. its the first live recording ever released on an album where electronic sounds and classical components were merged in such manner.

mika vainios first solo album for blastfirst sees him return to his classic power electronics, heavy beats approach that made his pansonic duo with ilpo vaissanen garner a world wide reputation. the album developed from vainios recent live sets to make ten tersely titled tracks apprently inspired by the shipping container industry. four stars in mojo > heavy-freight< the wire complained of the album being >too rock< the quietus described it as >fearsome<. vaino continues to tour the world Ð an army of one.

united by this ethos and a love for analogue electronic sounds, genuine artisans triad spent 2012 ensconced in the studio further shaping the essence of the sonic visions theyd already shared with the world into one solid statement of intangible intent - an aural essay in ong play format entitled utopia.

wer die ueber 15 jahre dauernde karriere von dj shadow verfolgt hat, der wei§: ein albumtitel wie the less you know, the better ist bei ihm nicht ohne grund gewaehlt. dj shadow hat fuer sein kommendes werk nicht nur etliche samples aus seiner ueber 60.000 lps umfassenden sammlung, sondern obendrein auch drei fiktionale wortfuehrer herbeizitiert: ein als cartoonfigur gezeichnetes mobiltelefon, ein tablet und ein laptop. shadow feiert damit jedoch keineswegs unser digitales zeitalter, im gegenteil, er kritisiert mit seinen gadget-comicfiguren und deren kommentaren den zynischen grundton, der im digitalen zeitalter vorherrscht, den uebersaettigten miesmacher-tonfall, der gewisserma§en schon zur netiquette gehoert. auf the less you know, the better existieren satte beats, vereinzelte gitarren, klassische hiphop-banger und wunderschoene melodien nebeneinander. zu den highlights zaehlen unter anderem -scale it back- feat. little dragon, -stay the course- feat. talib kweli & posdnous (de la soul), -warning call- feat. tom vek oder auch der folk-track -sad and lonely-.
