  • JOHN ROBERTS - GLASS EIGHTS (CD, Do-LP) DIAL RECORDS (Distribution by KOMPAKT) Release Date: 27Th of September 2010 by Brooke Chroman
    TextText Text OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE JOHN ROBERTS - GLASS EIGHTS (CD, Do-LP) DIAL RECORDS (distribution by KOMPAKT) Release date: 27th of September 2010 by Brooke Chroman In 2008 John Roberts was asked by Carsten Jost, Pantha Du Prince and Lawrence to be the first American artist on the influential german Dial Records imprint. His releases for Dial and sister label Laid have all received major accolades for their distinct and refined aesthetic. Roberts currently lives in Berlin and performs regularly in Europe's preeminent clubs. His first full-length album debuts a sound impeccably curated! GLASS EIGHTS weaves a fragile lace of melancholy punctuated by intricate 808 patterns, as a synthesized splice confronts the pull of a violin in minor key; the echoes of a disco clap pierce the loom of a somber piano refrain. The narrative of a classic house track begins to deconstruct and unravel itself as Roberts reveals something off-kilter, darker and contemplative of its own genre. This self-reflexive quality is, in part, caused by Roberts’ hyper-acute sense of percussion: a beat drops just after instinct beckons and seems to both unravel and collect itself, resulting in tracks that negotiate the space between a solitary night with headphones and the center of a packed dance floor. With its contemplative instrumental weave, GLASS EIGHTS asks broader cultural questions about the psychological function of music as it blurs distinctions between sublimation and expression, escape and confrontation, medication and symptom, repression and reserve. The electric and grand piano, organ, violin, modular synthesizers and eclectic percussion split, shatter and reform, disclosing an aesthetic sensibility which delicately reflects on the eerie stillness of a grey day, the repetition of a single note on a detuned upright piano, a deflated balloon, the white of a funeral arrangement, exhibiting a kind of discrete, perverse hopefulness.

  • Pantha Du Prince: Conference Of
    Pantha Du Prince: Conference of Trees Start time: 8.30pm Running time: 2 hours including interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change Martin Aston spoke to Hendrik Weber about giving trees a voice in his new project There are few spaces where a German musician specialising in adventurous and increasingly conceptual techno crosses paths with a 19th century German mathematician, current authors of studies in the communicative behaviour of flora and a 12th century Persian Sufi philosopher. It’s also very timely, as the subject of communication between trees is increasing in both scientific and media fronts. Yet, for the man otherwise known as Hendrik Weber, the genesis of Conference of Trees began two decades ago, in his home town of Baunatal, Central Germany, surrounded by deep forest. ‘I’ve been fascinated by trees since I was about nine, going into the forest, inventing adventures and building huts,’ he recalls. ‘But as you grow older, you start to move away from this sense of completeness. For me, I was hunting more for music and playing in bands, skateboarding and skiing.’ It’s on his own, as Pantha Du Prince (‘a fantasy character...a poetic transporter for the concept behind the music’) that Weber has carved a niche for a style of techno he calls, ‘layered and cinematographic.’ He released the Diamond Daze (2004) and This Bliss (2007) albums on Berlin dance label Dial before signing to Rough Trade and widening his audience with Black Noise (2010) and Elements of Light (2013). The last of these was a collaboration with Norwegian percussion ensemble The Bell Laboratory, after Weber had discovered the carillon, an organ-style instrument consisting of 23 bells while recording Black Noise in the Swiss mountains.

  • Breakbeats, Pop Hooks & Melodies
    Breakbeats, Pop Hooks & Melodies: June’s New Albums Reviewed Music | Bittles’ Magazine: The music column from the end of the world With the Brexit referendum looming most people in the UK are asking themselves, ‚How would a separation from the rest of Europe affect the price of vinyl?‘ The simple answer is that the price will rise! The main reason for this is that most of the pressing plants are based on the mainland, (and that’s not even figuring in having to pay import duty on those desired new 12inches on Kompakt, Workshop or Ostgut Ton). A convincing argument if ever there was one for any music fan in the British Isles to vote REMAIN. By JOHN BITTLES But, enough of politics! This week we have reviews of great new albums by Lone, New Order, James K, Lawrence, Jessy Lanza, Kris Wadsworth, Stabil Elite and more. So, without further ado,let us begin… After the gorgeous house tones of Reality Testing, electronic maverick Lone AKA Matt Cutler makes a welcome return to the album format with the rave and breakbeat inspired Levitate. Out now on R&S Records, the album is a short but sweet listening experience. Containing nine tracks with a total running time of just over 30 minutes, no one could ever accuse Levitate of outstaying its welcome. Apparently inspired by aural hallucinations caused by a severe fever, the album is a fast, frantic 90s inspired blast. Yet, Levitate never resorts to bland programming, or resting on the laurels of a 4/4 beat, as each and every track contains both musicality and warmth.
