with an enviable private collection of synthesisers amassed during his travels to the us in the early 1970�s and shipped home to tel aviv (where he was an established kinetic artist, as well as a professor of both philosophy and art) ami�s main focus was the desire to combine his love of electronic music acts such as tangerine dream, philip glass and new synthesiser technology, with his interest in the relatively new technique of biofeedback - a process in which technology was used to relay information about the body�s functions in order to enable a change of physiological activity.

what can you expect? take the best fusion-band ever (chick coreas return to forever), some james brown funk, synth-fun like tangerine dream and even a bit of hardrock, and youre getting close. this is zappa, the flemish zappa: cool,funny, sad, difficult,no record for those who love the traditional verse-chorus-verse, and so probably as uncommercial as it can get

electronic avantgarde! mooner edits.. conrad schnitzler is considered to be the keyfigure of electronic avantgarde music in europe. schnitzler, joseph beuys first student was member of tangerine dream and kluster (who would later become, cluster. many years ahead of his time, con was revolutionary in many aspects, he predated industrial music, sounded like kraftwerk and daf before they did and makes music today at the age of 71. mooner is not only known for zombie nations, kernkraft 400 that became a top ten hit in many european countries. he is also dj, compiler for the compilations, elaste, slow motion disco, on compost, and, together with pollyester just established a new label called love in c minor.

following the first two elegiac notes to our dear lost cindy, palmbomen ii s third dedication arrives with the last 12inch available independently of the four piece set and a new episode of real talk. throughout memories of cindy pt. 3, voicings from the palmbomen ii paradigm are pared down to their vascular essentials. pumping iridescent, melodic acid house through club fog and californian smog on ultimate lovestory fantasy, teleac, and disappointment island, the nearly hymnal qualities of wilcos funeral and fat director counter the dance cuts and commemorate cindy with colors reminiscent of schmoelling-era tangerine dream as twisted by kai hugos melon

few artists can claim to have their own distinctive �musical voice�: a style of composition and production that listeners instantly recognize. for starters, it takes years of experimentation to perfect, and most people simply don�t have the patience, talent or skills to pull it off.
ali kuru is one of those rare producers whose music sounds like nothing else around. the istanbul-based artist has spent the best part of a decade honing his trademark style � a fragrant and intoxicating aural brew that combines a myriad of influences with atmospheric field recordings and snaking, mind-altering middle eastern instrumentation � via releases for the likes of luxa flex, kalisah, sound architecture and, most recently, leng.
it�s to the latter label that the publicity-shy producer returns with his most ambitious release to date, egzotik. 15 tracks and 70 minutes deep, it�s not so much a debut album as a statement of intent. from start to finish, it feels like a humid, sweat-soaked saunter through the winding streets of istanbul in the company of a musician who draws more inspiration than most from his immediate surroundings.

auf ulrich schnauss 5tem studio-album �no further ahead than today� regieren einmal mehr die elektronisch eingespielten ambient-pop-hymnen, die längst zu seinem markenzeichen geworden sind. diese sollten fans von künstlern wie jon hopkins und brian eno interessieren. schnauss selbst ist umtriebig - seit 2014 ist er keyboarder bei tangerine dream, produziert unter eigenem namen remixes für pop-künstler wie depeche mode, pet shop boys, todd terje und bryan ferry und hat gerade für die decca-compilation �re:works� bachs �prelude in c� neu in szene gesetzt.
�no further ahead than today� ist klar mehr pop als ambient. starke melodien stehen im vordergrund, die stücke sind mit rhythmen unterlegt, zuweilen gar mit gesang begleitet, eine hymnische note ist immer präsent. spätestens seit seinen beiden solo-alben, die bei dem deutschen label city center offices erschienen, gilt schnauss als ein elektroniker, der manche tugenden des britischen indie-shoegaze-sounds auf seine klangvorstellungen überträgt.
die doppel-lp erscheint im klappcover inklusive downloadcode.

streaking through the ether at twice the speed of sound, mr 8040 is on a date with destiny. he is heading for mikrosector-50, his home planet, but things are not going as smoothly as planned. en route he finds himself in sticky situations, cosmic encounters that trigger flashbacks to a different time and place. will he ever make it home? and who � or what � is he running from?
this, more or less, is the narrative thrust of jack hamills debut album as space dimension controller. welcome to mickrosektor-50 is a swashbuckling sci-fi odyssey that unfolds like some long-lost star wars episode scripted by philip k dick and scored by tangerine dream. the record is fantasy in its purest form: a futuristic boys own adventure concocted in a belfast bedroom, it is the sum of jacks musical influences distilled into 68 minutes of unalloyed electronic pleasure.
