IROHA – SHEPHERDS & ANGELS Cd | LP | MP3

Birmingham based Shoegaze, Metal outfit Iroha are back with the follow up to their highly acclaimed 2011 self-titled debut album. Coming in December via Denovali Records, ‹ Shepherds & Angels › is another heavy slab of densely melancholic and yet extremely uplifting songwriting combining elements of shoe-gaze, metal and electronica. From the opening, monolithic riff of ‹ The Greatest Healer › through to the swirling atmospherics of ‹ Denial › (a unique collaboration with Hydra-Head’s Pyramids), ‹ Shepherds & Angels › is equally as heavy as lead and as fragile as glass. Andy Swan (Final), Diarmuid Dalton (Godflesh etc.) and Dominic Crane (The Boaty Man, Rumble Fish) have a great feeling for melodies and know how to combine them with powerful sound elements to create a fuzzy warm mood. Time to immerse.

TALVIHORROS – AND IT WAS SO CD | LP | MP3

Talvihorros is London based composer Ben Chatwin’s study of guitar and electronics. Numerous techniques are used to coax a myriad of sounds from both acoustic and electric guitars. Home-made and vintage electronic equipment are used to loop, process and manipulate improvised material into dense and dark sound collages.

What started out as a personal challenge to make an album in 7 days grew into something else entirely. Over a year in the making, and expanding his trademark guitar sound with drums, strings, bells, organs and synthesisers, ‹ And It Was So › features contributions from fellow label mates Field Rotation (violin) and Petrels (cello) along with tour partner Jordan Chatwin (drums/percussion) and long time collaborator Anais Lalange (viola).

If last years album ‹ Descent Into Delta › was reminiscent of plunging into the murky depths, his latest offering ‹ And It Was So › evokes the expansiveness, dynamicism and density of the cosmos . Attempting to find order in chaos is something Talvihorros has been striving to achieve over the past three albums and he has never balanced these elements so beautifully. Merging the textural noise of Tim Hecker with psychedelic, guitar sound-sculpters such as Barn Owl and Sun Araw.

TALVIHORROS – LET US BE THANKFUL WE HAVE COMMERCE 10’’ | MP3

‹ Let Us Be Thankful We Have Commerce › was the inaugral, cassette-only release on London-based publishing house My Dance The Skull. It was composed as a response to the worrying grasp of consumerism over much of western society. Inspired by the first few Talvihorros live improvisational shows a small, primitave set-up consisting of guitar, mixer, casio keyboard, effects and percussion were used to create two long, vibrant and constantly shifting pieces. It now sees the light of day again as a limited 10’’ rerelease via denovali records.

Hey Hey.

Some of you maybe already recognized it - the preorder for the debut albums of two new denovali artists are online now. POPPY ACKROYD (also part of HIDDEN ORCHESTRA) provides us with her brilliant first work called « Escapement » and THE ALVARET ENSEMBLE after several first live improvisations offers a fantastic self titled debut 2xLP/ 2xCd.

Classically trained on violin and piano, Poppy fell in love with contemporary piano music and with the piano beyond the keys, discovering the world of sound that could be made from other parts of the instrument. Realising the violin had the same potential, she has spent the last few years composing delicate, intricate and beautifully atmospheric music by manipulating and multi-tracking sounds from these two instruments. All of you who are interested in Arvo Pärt, Hauschka or Max Richter surely will enjoy these tunes.

People who are into Set Fire To Flames, Rachels, Arvo Pärt and the ECM catalogue on the other hand should give the Alvaret Ensemble a listen.

Poppy currently plays some first concerts together with CARLOS CIPA. The Alvaret Ensemble will be on the road again in January and February. You can find all dates attached below.

Direct download of both albums: www.denovali.com/mp3shop

MAILORDER NEWS: On top of the in-house Denovali releases we’ve received a lot of new items from other nice labels for our mailorder. The complete list mentioned below as well.

CHRISTMAS HINT: As always the typical pre Christmas hint. If you like to order presents please do it early - especially the shipping to other European countries and the worldwide coverage in December sometimes needs longer than expected.

Thanks a lot for your great support!

POPPY ACKROYD - ESCAPEMENT Cd | 12’’ | MP3

Poppy Ackroyd is a performer and composer from London who is currently based in Edinburgh. Classically trained on violin and piano, she fell in love with contemporary piano music and with the piano beyond the keys, discovering the world of sound that could be made from other parts of the instrument. Realising the violin had the same potential, she has spent the last few years composing delicate, intricate and beautifully atmospheric music by manipulating and multi-tracking sounds from these two instruments.

Her debut album ‹ Escapement › stays true to this idea. Every sound, with the exception of a few field recordings, is created using only either the piano or the violin. The seven tracks are a combination of piano melodies and chords - played both conventionally or created inside the piano using fingers, e-bows and plectrums - violin textures, melodies and pizzicato riffs and finally delicate beats composed of hits, plucks, taps and scrapes made using hands, drumsticks, beaters and small cymbals on either the frame, strings or dampers of the piano. There are often five or more different percussive lines working alongside each other.

In order to compose in this way, Poppy had to learn how to record and produce the music herself, as working with someone else would have been far too time consuming. Having discovered and restored a beautiful but neglected grand piano, she bought a laptop, digital recorder and speakers. Everything from the piano is recorded in her home studio with just this one microphone.

‹ Escapement › is the part of the mechanism in a piano that enables the hammer to be released, so that the string can vibrate once it is struck. It can also mean the physical act of escaping, and in the context of this album it refers to the release of emotions through the instrument. Field recordings of birds from the Outer Hebrides, and rain recorded whilst driving in Scotland, add to the narrative content of the music which underpins the whole album, giving it a strong emotional resonance.

For the last few years Poppy has been recording and touring extensively with HIDDEN ORCHESTRA (Tru Thoughts Records, Denovali Records), composing and performing live soundtracks for contemporary dance and physical theatre works, and collaborating with other musicians, artists, filmmakers, actors, sound designers and radio documentary producers. Escapement will be released in December 2012 by Denovali Records and she will be touring throughout Europe at the same time.

THE ALVARET ENSEMBLE - s/t 2xCd | 2x12’’ | MP3

"The Alvaret Ensemble is a new improvisatory collective based around Greg Haines (piano), Jan Kleefstra (voice, poems), Romke Kleefstra (guitar and effects) and Sytze Pruiksma (percussion). This self-titled 2xCD/2xLP is our first release, and was recorded over three nights at the Grunewaldkirche in Berlin by Nils Frahm in August of 2011. In keeping with the spirit of the project, other musicians were invited to the sessions to add their own colour and further add to the spontaneity of the recording. In the end, those collaborators played an important part in defining the sound of the album - Iden Reinhart played violin, as did Peter Broderick, while Hilary Jeffery (Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble etc.) provided the album with its mournful trombone tones. Martyn Heyne, who was just there to help out with recording, ended up unleashing the church’s organ and bringing a completely new element and sense of power to the album.
We had been talking about recording together for a long time before finally setting the date and the location, so there was a strong sense of anticipation as we began to set-up the space for recording. Then, without scores or discussion, we began to play. In the beautiful and bright acoustics of the Grunewaldkirche, it soon became clear that even when playing incredibly quietly, the sound still filled the room and the tiny details or blemishes that we began to notice in the sound became the compositional tools that informed the recording. Recorded entirely at night, the candlelit atmosphere further added to the level of concentration and interconnectivity, and quickly the pieces began to take on lives of their own - it was as if with just a little guidance they would play out by themselves; as if the scores were already written and we were simply reciting what we had spent years composing. So many months of thoughts and ideas quickly began to pour out into something that instantly began to feel complete. Of course this feel of completeness was also supplemented with a sense of excitement that the idea was working, that something was beginning to take shape - that an album that we are now all immensely proud was being created right there, in the moment.
We were left with around 12 hours of recordings, which we then spent months immersing ourselves in and began to craft something that would later become two discs - something that can be viewed as two separate entities or as one lengthy statement. When all was in order, Nils Frahm and Greg got together in his workspace, Durton Studio, and mixed and mastered it with the precise attention to detail that the music deserved.” - The Alvaret Ensemble.

Greg Haines is a musician and composer based in Berlin. He has released on Miasmah, Sonic Pieces and Preservation, and played concerts around the world, including across Europe, the USA, Japan and Australia. He also has created many scores for dance, including "Day4” with choreographer David Dawson, performed by the Dutch National ballet and the Holland Symfonia.

The Kleefstra Brothers are members of the Dutch improv band Piiptsjilling, as well as working together on numerous releases with musicians such as Celer, Gareth Davis, Peter Broderick, Machinefabriek, Nils Frahm, Greg Haines, Sytze Pruiksma and Anne Chris Bakker. It invariably involves the experimental guitar playing of Romke in combination with the spoken word in Frisian (old European minority language) by Jan.

Sytze Pruiksma is a composer, sound artist and bird-watcher, traditionally educated as a classical percussionist at the conservatory of Amsterdam. After having played as a percussionist in the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and the Dutch Philharmonic Orchestra (among others), he focussed on his own projects, developing an authentic way of playing that is characterized by a great attention for timbre, inspired on landscapes, nature and birds. For fans of SET FIRE TO FLAMES, RACHELS, ARVO PÄRT and the ECM catalogue in general.

Hello everyone.

Welcome to the first newsletter in 2013. All the best for the new year.

NEW RELEASES
We’re very pleased to present you two new releases of our friend N - this time collaborations with the sound artist Jim Campbell. The LPs feature live recorded material from the studio while the included CDs present live-on-stage cuts. Both LPs are coming with thick special printed sleeves like all N releases and they’re both limited to only 100 copies. A more detailed sound description is mentioned further below in the newsletter.

Only half a year after his impressive debut, SAFFRONKEIRA returns with another concept album, entitled « Tourette ». While « A New Life » dealt with transition, maturation, the white and black parts of life, the common theme of « Tourette » seem to be neurological diseases. And indeed, it is not difficult to imagine the vast neural network of the human brain while listening to « Tourette », to visualize how electric impulses switch from neuron to neuron, follow various paths in the cerebral cortex, spread and recombine and eventually are lead astray or possible meet a damaged nerve cell. « Tourette » leaves the listener in a puzzled situation, as he soon realises that it poses more questions than answers. Recommened if you enjoy artists like Fennesz, Murcof or maybe Arvo Part. The album is available as a 2xlp (limited color edition: 150 pieces on white with black splatters), on cd and digitally via www.denovali.com/saffronkeira

SWINGFEST UPDATE
For those who missed it last week: We’ve just started the ticket preorder for the Denovali Swingfest 2013 Berlin edition. Latest addition for day two is TIM HECKER (can) - we’ll announce the last missing artist in the course of January. Tickets and all further information: www.denovali.com/swingfest

MAILORDER UPDATE
In the first week of January we’ve received the Cinematic Orchestra - Man With A Movie Camera 2xLP repress, Fink represses, new Interlude + new Tesa LP, the Taxi Driver soundtrack on vinyl, the Boris + Joe Volk LP, the new Amen Ra on Cd and a lot of more items. www.denovali.com/mailorder

Thanks a lot!

SAFFRONKEIRA - TOURETTE CD | 2xLP | DIGITAL

SaffronKeira is a project established in 2008 by Eugenio Caria from the island of Sardinia, Italy. With SaffronKeira, Eugenio Caria lives out his passion of being a researcher of the possibility of expression offered by currently available technology. Indeed, in his tracks he experiments a lot with electronics and unconventional elements, which sometimes seem meaningless at first sight, but uncover their significance only on a closer examination. Combining subtle and sometimes even almost invisible rhythms with textures of sound he confidently moves between minimalistic pieces and classic ambient tracks which should please both the analytic ears and the listeners who just want to dive into the music.

After a couple of remixes, live releases and EPs, SaffronKeira’s debut album « A New Life » saw the light of the day in July 2012 and the press responded with reviews such as « The evolving tracks take on a hypnotic atmosphere, swirling just below the line of consciousness, where the received and the perceived datum collide, creating a brand new universe, space and dimension. A New Life is an album that will surely grab your attention if you are a fan of digital darkness and analog void by artists such as Murcof, Jasper TX, Hecq, Cindytalk, The Caretaker, Andy Stott, Raime » (Headphone Commute) or « As SaffronKeira, Caria’s music could easily fall into the realms of experimental electronica and dark ambient, frequencies of electronic IDM and minimalistic beats that edge close to techno, but it goes much deeper, and darker, than that. » (A Closer Listen).

Only half a year after his impressive debut, SaffronKeira returns with another concept album, entitled « Tourette ». While « A New Life » dealt with transition, maturation, the white and black parts of life, the common theme of « Tourette » seem to be neurological diseases. And indeed, it is not difficult to imagine the vast neural network of the human brain while listening to « Tourette », to visualize how electric impulses switch from neuron to neuron, follow various paths in the cerebral cortex, spread and recombine and eventually are lead astray or possible meet a damaged nerve cell. Eugenio Caria manages to capture the complexity, fragility and inscrutability of these processes in his usual mixture of very abstract electronic parts on the one hand and extremly warm layers of sound on the other hand. Finishing with the epic « The Hope », « Tourette » leaves the listener in a puzzled situation, as he soon realises that it poses more questions than answers. For fans of FENNESZ, MURCOF, MAX RICHTER, ARVO PART, etc.

N(25) + Jim Campbell - Tapemeasurekid - Ours Is A Stubborn Monster LP+CD | MP3
N(26) + Jim Campbell - Tapemeasurekid - Zero Is An Even Number LP+CD | MP3

TAPE MEASURE KID is the new live-playing duo of N, amps + guitar, and Jim Campbell (aka the preterite), lofi samplers, modified analog 4-track recorder and effects. On their double debut releases “Ours Is A Stubborn Monster” and “Zero Is An Even Number” they expand N’s drone / ambient style to something that is at the same time drone and beyond drone, including a sort of dark and sometimes weird improv tendency. very unique and for some of you maybe as if N’s sustained guitar had been mangled through a computer by some strange wizard. but in fact all you can hear happened in real time, with a cable feeding the guitar signal to jim’s cassette scratch orchestra, with the possibility of real-time manipulation while playing, cutting loose from boundaries.
Both records show this special live-appeal of TAPE MEASURE KID, with the live-in-studio material on the vinyl part and the live-on-stage cuts on the CD part of both releases.

Hi everyone.

First of all thanks a lot for the very nice feedback regarding the ALVARET ENSEMBLE release and tour – the guys really enjoyed the gigs. You can see them playing again in April in Berlin at the Swingfest.

SWINGFEST UPDATE
Speaking about the Berlin edition of Swingfest: Around 60% of the tickets for day one are already gone – just to avoid any crying if it might sell out in the next 2, 3 weeks. The capacity for day two isn’t that limited – so there are more tickets available.

Preorder for Swingfest London also started – all details are available via www.denovali.com/swingfest.

We’ve launched a new preorder yesterday – the marvelous ‹ ‹ Aftermath › › album of THISQUIETARMY is finally available on vinyl now – included is the previously unreleased EP ‹ ‹ Setting Ashes › ›.

The two new N releases and the new SAFFRONKEIRA album are ready to ship in the next days – a couple of preorders already left our basement.

NEW ARTIST ON BOARD
We’re proud and happy to inform you that the wonderful project PIANO INTERRUPTED will be part of the Denovali family from now on. We’ll rerelease their debut album Two By Four w/ bonus material in April 2013 - a new full length will follow in October 2013. First impressions: www.denovali.com/pianointerrupted

THISQUIETARMY – AFTERMATH + SETTING ASHES 2xLP | DIGITAL

« Aftermath » was recorded in 2008-2009 and initially released on CD in 2010. At the time, the album was partially inspired and in respect to aesthetics by the works of German visual artist Anselm Kiefer: the imaginary setting takes place in the post-apocalyptic countryside and revolves around fallen angels as unexploded ordnances. In parallel, the compositions were also inspired by the sounds of crackling tubes and failing resistors captured from old vintage amplifiers during the recording process. Drones and melodies were built around these hissing sounds to create moods of tension and transitions from the remnants of destruction. These static interferences thus remained as important compositional elements, as if the whole themed-universe of the record stems from a faraway buzz, in which the dawn of a new era reveals itself. With « Aftermath », thisquietarmy manages to create the perfect light and heavy post-nuclear winter atmosphere, with a glimmer of hope appearing slowly like sun rays through massive clouds of dust.

« Setting Ashes » is in some way a coda to « Aftermath » as it was recorded in 2009 from a live improvised performance during the creative process of « Aftermath ». The context of this recording took place during a thisquietarmy-curated event called « Sunday Afternoon Drones » in a Montreal Mile-end café, which the decaying decor of a 1970’s apothecary remained. Initially intended for an EP to be released shortly after « Aftermath », these recordings have never found their way out until now. They were dug up for this special 2LP vinyl re-issue on Denovali Records in 2013.

SAFFRONKEIRA - TOURETTE CD | 2xLP | DIGITAL

SaffronKeira is a project established in 2008 by Eugenio Caria from the island of Sardinia, Italy. With SaffronKeira, Eugenio Caria lives out his passion of being a researcher of the possibility of expression offered by currently available technology. Indeed, in his tracks he experiments a lot with electronics and unconventional elements, which sometimes seem meaningless at first sight, but uncover their significance only on a closer examination. Combining subtle and sometimes even almost invisible rhythms with textures of sound he confidently moves between minimalistic pieces and classic ambient tracks which should please both the analytic ears and the listeners who just want to dive into the music.

After a couple of remixes, live releases and EPs, SaffronKeira’s debut album « A New Life » saw the light of the day in July 2012 and the press responded with reviews such as « The evolving tracks take on a hypnotic atmosphere, swirling just below the line of consciousness, where the received and the perceived datum collide, creating a brand new universe, space and dimension. A New Life is an album that will surely grab your attention if you are a fan of digital darkness and analog void by artists such as Murcof, Jasper TX, Hecq, Cindytalk, The Caretaker, Andy Stott, Raime » (Headphone Commute) or « As SaffronKeira, Caria’s music could easily fall into the realms of experimental electronica and dark ambient, frequencies of electronic IDM and minimalistic beats that edge close to techno, but it goes much deeper, and darker, than that. » (A Closer Listen).

Only half a year after his impressive debut, SaffronKeira returns with another concept album, entitled « Tourette ». While « A New Life » dealt with transition, maturation, the white and black parts of life, the common theme of « Tourette » seem to be neurological diseases. And indeed, it is not difficult to imagine the vast neural network of the human brain while listening to « Tourette », to visualize how electric impulses switch from neuron to neuron, follow various paths in the cerebral cortex, spread and recombine and eventually are lead astray or possible meet a damaged nerve cell. Eugenio Caria manages to capture the complexity, fragility and inscrutability of these processes in his usual mixture of very abstract electronic parts on the one hand and extremly warm layers of sound on the other hand. Finishing with the epic « The Hope », « Tourette » leaves the listener in a puzzled situation, as he soon realises that it poses more questions than answers. For fans of FENNESZ, MURCOF, MAX RICHTER, ARVO PART, etc.

Hey hey.

We’ve prepared two new releases for you in the past weeks. Available for preorder now are the new albums of FIELD ROTATION and ONEIROGEN. The newsletter beyond that features an announcement regarding the new album and collection boxset of GREG HAINES, a Denovali concert overview, the new music video of LENTO and the as always the new mailorder update.

NEW RELEASES
After his fantastic performance at the CTM Festival in Berlin Oneirogen finished his new album called „Kiasma“. Mario Diaz de Leon creates his own style of hallucinatory music, merging ethereal synths, brutal distortion, dark ambient and noise.

With his new album Christoph Berg a.k.a. Field Rotation concentrates on the more classically based production, continuing and expanding upon the musical idea of his ‹ Acoustic Tales › project. ‹ Fatalist: The Repetition of History › is marked by a noticeable inner fragility, the contrast between bitter harshness and stirring melancholy.

Both albums are as always available as cd, limited vinyl version and digitally.

NEW LENTO VIDEO
The Italian experimental instrumental outfit Lento just finished their first music video. You can find it on our Youtube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIJW6XV7VpA

NEW GREG HAINES RELEASES
2013 seems to be the year of Greg Haines: In May we will release “Where We Were”, a new album which focuses on electronic and percussive elements. In conjunction with this, a 3xCd, 5xLp boxset release consisting of Greg’s three previous albums will be released, so listeners can finally enjoy them all together. Alongside work in various other projects that will be announced as the year continues, Haines will also be scoring the new ballet by David Dawson, to be premiered in November at the Royal Opera House in London, with The Royal Ballet.

Greg also will play a longer tour in May. The dates will be announced soon at his new facebook page: www.facebook.com/greghainessounds

Thanks a lot for your constant support.

FIELD ROTATION – FATALIST: THE REPETITION OF HISTORY CD | LP | DIGITAL

« like a melancholic Max Richter – but just as beautiful as his music » (Jazzthetik)

« a stylistic flair rarely seen in today’s over-populated musical landscape. » (The Silent Ballet)

With his new album Field Rotation concentrates on the more classically based production, continuing and expanding upon the musical idea of his ‹ Acoustic Tales › project. ‹ Fatalist: The Repetition of History › is marked by a noticeable inner fragility, the contrast between bitter harshness and stirring melancholy. In the fatalist view of history, the ancient Greeks thought that just as the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter repeat themselves every year, history would do the same and follow a cyclic course. This may or may not be true, however, Field Rotation has certainly succeeded once again in composing an album which will ease as many minds as it will thoroughly shake.

ONEIROGEN – KIASMA CD | 2xLP | DIGITAL

After the debut album « Hypnos » and the « Veni Nox Anima » EP finally new material of this New York based composer. With ONEIROGEN, Mario Diaz de Leon creates his own style of hallucinatory music, merging ethereal synths, brutal distortion, dark ambient and noise. The project was initiated in 2012 with the release of « Hypnos », which garnered widespread acclaim among fans of experimental and heavy music for its varied and cinematic intensity.
While maintaining a strong electronic (and unclassifiable) sound, « Kiasma » offers an intensification of the metal elements present on the debut. Thoughout the album’s walls of drumless distortion, melody is a prominent feature, with tracks such as « Numina », « Mutilation », « Pathogen », and « Mortisomnia » exploring revelatory intersections of heavy synths and guitars. The 14-minute « Katabasis » opened nearly every live show of 2012, and is rooted in drone/doom metal, with elements of modern classical and noise. « Gauze » and « Imminence » serve as haunting interludes, and are concise takes on bleak and cold melody. Ranging from melancholic to brutally foreboding, another immersive and visionary album by ONEIROGEN.

PETRELS – ONKALO CD | 2xLP’ | DIGITAL

Onkalo is the follower of the highly praised Petrels concept debut album Haeligewielle. (« Petrels has provided us with what has to be the strongest solo debut from a musician so far in 2011. » (Fluid Radio) + « The album is a masterpiece of narrative, a blackened ship with a broken mast that defies the storm and in so doing discovers its own dark destiny. » (8.5/ 10 - The Silent Ballet)

Onkalo (‹ hiding place ›) is the name of the spent nuclear fuel repository currently under construction in Finland to house hazardous nuclear waste. It is designed to last a minimum of 100,000 years - a scale of time unimaginable when the oldest surviving man made structures have endured not even a tenth of that time. The human species as we know it is thought to have existed for approximately 100,000 years - is it possible for humankind to build something that will endure a timescale that vast again? And what will be left to uncover it if it does so?

Taking this as a starting point, Petrels second album - after acclaimed debut Haeligewielle - draws on a fascination with how we deal with what is left over, both physically and mentally. With this thread running through Onkalo, Petrels also takes inspiration from speculative science, immense time scales, retro-futurism, personal history, and how the post-war optimism of the dawn of the atomic age has come up against a more uncertain vision of the future.

DOMINIC - PERSONA [CD|LP|DIGITAL]

It’s been four years since their previous album, but now DOMINIC is finally ready with album number three, “Persona”.

In the first years since their beginning in 2001, DOMINIC have mainly focused on concerts and live shows and have toured Europe a lot especially after 2003. Many DOMINIC releases have seen the light of the day during these years, including two full length albums. Most of these recordings had been done live and as quickly as possible. The band has had its focus on catching the nerve and roughness the live format adds, without spending too much time on post production.

With the new album DOMINIC took a different approach and thus Persona marks a new step in their history as a band. DOMINIC started working on the songs for the album shortly after their previous album “Nord” was released in 2009. Since 2010 there have been fewer live shows, but a steady and continuous work on the material for Persona. Finally DOMINIC have been in and out of the recording studio in the Summer and Fall of 2012 to finish the record.

The album name “Persona” is borrowed from the psychiatrist Carl Jung, who defined “the persona” as a mask, the facade we try to maintain in social settings. The persona-mask occurs between the individual and the society around, and is not more real than the characters played in a fictional play. Both in fiction and in real life, the mask has two functions; to make a certain impression on others, and to hide the true nature of the individual.

SWITCHBLADE - S/t (2003) [CD|LP|DIGITAL]

This celebrated and long sold out self titled 2003 release of Switchblade is finally available again on both CD and vinyl, remastered and with a modified artwork.

A 6 song, 47 minute journey, this album is the definition of epic. A dense sonic storm of ambient soundscapes, driving repetition, and dark instrumental passages, that’s building to an immeasurable wall of sound and power. All with just sparse use of vocals. Switchblade have been seething and writhing within Sweden’s prolific underground music community since 1998. Their progression was quick. In only a few years Switchblade went from wearing their influences on their sleeves to making major waves in a still young sub genre. Shaped equally by their love of the morose sounds of Joy Division, Swans, The Melvins, Neurosis, Isis, etc. 10 years later and with three further albums plus a Swedish Grammy nomination under their belt, Switchblade’s sounds has shifter a bit, and Switchblade are now rather fans of Autopsy, Eagle Twin, Uriah Heep, Celtic Frost, Black Sabbath, Bohren & Der Club of Gore etc. Yet, Switchblade are still titans of minimalism and their 2003 marks an integral part of their discography as anybody can judge for himself.

PETRELS – ONKALO CD | 2xLP’ | DIGITAL

Onkalo is the follower of the highly praised Petrels concept debut album Haeligewielle. (« Petrels has provided us with what has to be the strongest solo debut from a musician so far in 2011. » (Fluid Radio) + « The album is a masterpiece of narrative, a blackened ship with a broken mast that defies the storm and in so doing discovers its own dark destiny. » (8.5/ 10 - The Silent Ballet)

Onkalo (‹ hiding place ›) is the name of the spent nuclear fuel repository currently under construction in Finland to house hazardous nuclear waste. It is designed to last a minimum of 100,000 years - a scale of time unimaginable when the oldest surviving man made structures have endured not even a tenth of that time. The human species as we know it is thought to have existed for approximately 100,000 years - is it possible for humankind to build something that will endure a timescale that vast again? And what will be left to uncover it if it does so?

Taking this as a starting point, Petrels second album - after acclaimed debut Haeligewielle - draws on a fascination with how we deal with what is left over, both physically and mentally. With this thread running through Onkalo, Petrels also takes inspiration from speculative science, immense time scales, retro-futurism, personal history, and how the post-war optimism of the dawn of the atomic age has come up against a more uncertain vision of the future.

Hello everyone.

First of all thanks a lot to everyone who came to the first edition of Denovali Swingfest Berlin - we really enjoyed the two evenings and we hope you had a nice time as well. Special thanks to the crew of the Radialsystem (especially Hannes and Ben of UM:LAUT) and the Passionskirche. We hope we can realize the fest in Berlin again in 2014. See you next year or maybe in London or Essen.

RELEASE NEWS
We’re very happy to present you the first Denovali release of PIANO INTERRUPTED. Their debut album „Two By Four“ will see the light of day as Cd, 2xLP and digitally. With cinematic piano, dreamy soundscapes, fragile and broken melodies colliding over complex rhythm structures, it’s difficult to categorise the musical style of Piano Interrupted. It seems to vary from EP to EP, gig to gig, track to track, even from bar to bar. There are nods to minimalism, film scores and cinematic soundscapes, glitch and ambient, post-rock, neo-classical piano and jazz… mastered by [i]Nils Frahm[/i]. Listen: www.denovali.com/pianointerrupted

You can preorder the Cd and vinyl version at our mailorder now or you can directly download the complete record at the Denovali mp3 store.

We’ve also received two new releases of Denovali acts realized by two other labels: The [i]MOUNT FUJI DOOMJAZZ CORPORATION[/i] – Live at Roadburn 2012 Cd/ 2x12’’ and the [i]PETRELS[/i] Split 10’’ he did together with the German band [BOLT]. You can order both via our mailorder from now on.

DENOVALI SWINGFEST NEWS
[i]Denovali Swingfest London[/i] will start next week – April 20 and 21 at the Scala. You can order your ticket via www.denovali.com/swingfest, www.ticketweb.co.uk or you can buy it at the Scala Box Office.

The non denovali guests are this time ANDY STOTT, WILLIAM BASINSKI, FENNESZ, MAYBESHEWILL and JAMES BLACKSHAW. Greg Haines will play a prelease concert regarding his upcoming album „Where We Were“.

DENOVALI 10 INCH SALE
We’re offering almost all Denovali 10’’ releases for a limited price of only 9.00 euros for one week. You can find the complete list further below and you can order them from now on via the mailorder. Enjoy.

Thanks a lot!

PIANO INTERRUPTED – TWO BY FOUR CD | 2x12’’ | DIGITAL

« Two By Four » is some kind of musical summation of the evolution of Piano Interrupted over the past three years, from an exclusively studio project (centered around the manipulation of Tom’s piano by Franz’s computer) to a fully-fledged live band with the addition of Greg Hall on the cello and Eric Young on percussion.

With cinematic piano, dreamy soundscapes, fragile and broken melodies colliding over complex rhythm structures, it’s difficult to categorise the musical style of Piano Interrupted. It seems to vary from EP to EP, gig to gig, track to track, even from bar to bar. There are nods to minimalism, film scores and cinematic soundscapes, glitch and ambient, post-rock, neo-classical piano and jazz… The eclectic list goes on but to them in the end, it is unimportant:

« What is important is that whenever we meet, we always try to make music that we believe in. »

The album is scheduled to be re-released and get wider distribution via German experimental music label, Denovali Records in April 2013. In contrast to the CD version previously released on Days Of Being Wild, this release contains six bonus tracks: two more tracks - Occasional Blues, Nocturne - from Piano Interrupted’s earlier writing, recorded as duos, and the missing piece from the Papa Hédi sessions, Foug. Finally as a summation of their journey thus far, further included are three live recordings of Étude (a live duo), London Waltz (a live quartet with our PI’s experiment involving Konokol vocals) and Foug, from their concert at the Radialsystem in Berlin as part of the UM:LAUT series.

Hello.

We’re back from our first DENOVALI SWINGFEST LONDON edition. Thanks to all the artists for their great sets, to the very nice team of the Scala for the good service, to our friends helping out with the event and last but not least the great audience for the outstanding interest and support. We’ll try to set up the event again next year. Next stop will be our home event in Essen in October.

Sorry that the delivery of orders in the past 10 days needed a bit longer to ship than usual. We were pretty busy with the festival.

NEW RELEASE
We’re pleased to present you the 11th album of TERMINAL SOUND SYSTEM called „A Sun Spinning Backwards“. Weaving together threads of post-rock and electronica, space-rock atmospherics with devastating passages of doom, A Sun Spinning Backwards is a multifaceted journey from inner to outer space.

In line with this new masterpiece we’re offering a repress of the „Constructing Towers“ album – this time also available on cd in a nice digipak cover. Both albums should be ready to ship next week.

The PIANO INTERRUPTED album also should be ready to ship early next week.

GREG HAINES TRACK PREVIEW

TERMINAL SOUND SYSTEM – A SUN SPINNING BACKWARDS CD | 2x12’’ | DIGITAL

Formed in a dingy Melbourne warehouse at the turn of the century, Terminal Sound System began as a vehicle for Skye Klein, half of Relapse Records cult doom/noise duo HALO, to explore his interest in experimental electronic music and Dub.

Ten albums later, TSS has expanded to include live instrumentation and synchronious video projection, merging epic doom, post-rock and jazz with electronica, drum’n’bass and heavy dub into a style wholly unique. Ostensibly a studio project, Terminal Sound System takes on new life as a live entity, infusing hyperprecise digital audio with the energy of rock & metal, all presented before synchronised video projection.

With ‹ A Sun Spinning Backwards › Terminal Sound System now present their eleventh release and third on Germany’s Denovali, which extends onward and outward the path forged by the ‘vast’ (The Sleeping Shaman) and ‘immersive’ (De:Bug) 2011’s Heavy Weather.

A Sun Spinning Backwards is a record filled with foreboding and hope in equal measures; foreboding for a seemingly unstoppable race towards extinction, hope for a future path that will be shaped and paved by our children.

Weaving together threads of post-rock and electronica, space-rock atmospherics with devastating passages of doom, A Sun Spinning Backwards is a multifaceted journey from inner to outer space.

TERMINAL SOUND SYSTEM – CONSTRUCTING TOWERS CD | 2x12’’ | DIGITAL

Terminal Sound System is the nom de plume of Skye Klein, who merges together electronica, drum and bass and rock music on Constructing Towers. Packing all these elements into a single noisy convergence of drum splashes and distorted fizz is opening track ‹ In Your Planet ›, which sounds like a grand finale to the album before it’s even got underway. Elsewhere, ‹ Year Of The Pig › holds itself together with a dubstep-influenced bassline that’s constantly threatening to blow its top - which it does, repeatedly. ‹ Alaska › is another fiery package, full of thrashy malevolence. Towards the end of the album a soundtrack-style, loungey jazz theme seems to set in through the Twin Peaks vibes of ‹ Duchamp Falls › and ‹ Theme For Broken Home ›, making for a far more rounded listening experience than the powerful bluster of its early stages might have suggested.

Hello everyone.

It’s been a while since we’ve sent out the last preorder newsletter. While listening to Chromatics we’re currently preparing four new releases of two gorgeous Denovali artists for you.

Witxes from France is back with a stunning new album called „A Fabric Of Beliefs“ – in line with it we’re offering his debut „Sorcery/Geography“ with a new design and a bonus track. Witxes will present the new pieces on a short solo tour together with Saffronkeira in May and he will play his first ensemble concert at Denovali Swingfest Essen.

Additionally we’re very happy to announce the preorder of Greg Haines’ new album „Where We Were“ on cd, double vinyl and digital, as well as the release of „2006-2012“, a collection of Greg’s first three albums Slumber Tides, Until The Point of Hushed Support and Digressions as triple cd and wonderfully designed 5xLP wooden collector’s box. The spaced-out soundscapes found on early Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze had always had a subtle influence on Greg’s work, but now armed with an arsenal of dusty studio toys, those sounds became warmer, richer and more prominent.

You can download all releases immediately via www.denovali.com/mp3shop

DENOVALI SWINGFEST ESSEN
We’re hopefully able to announce the main part of the 2013 lineup and to start the preorder in the course of this week. Already on board are Nils Frahm (ger), Floex (cz), Witxes (fra) and AUN (can).

GREG HAINES – WHERE WE WERE CD | 2x12’’ | DIGITAL

“WHERE WE WERE”, the new album from GREG HAINES, may come as a surprise upon first listen. The cascading strings that played such an important role in his prior work have disappeared, and in there place are intricate layers of tape-worn synthesizers. Any recordings of piano have been transformed and affected until their sound is at times barely recognizable. Moments of quiet, slowmoving textures can still be found, but they are nestled between upbeat, rhythmically-driven tracks that at times could even be considered for deployment on open-minded dancefloors. Although taking a year to complete, the nature of this record is born in its spontaneity and impulsiveness. The acoustic instruments such as piano, vibraphone and other percussion that found there way on to the album were not the result of months of composing - rather they were entirely improvised and often left completely unedited and raw. At first the idea was these rough tracks, full of noises and hiss, would later be re-recorded, but as the process drew on, it became clear that these kind of loose, half-thought moments were what defined the album - often “out-oftime” or “out-of-tune”, but always adding another dimension to the hazy, analog world of sound. This hand-crafted approach led to almost everything being constructed in the old-fashioned way; not with mouse-clicks, but with two hands moving dials and everything running to an aged tape machine.

This album is the result of one person sitting alone in a room and creating something entirely personal, without the frustrations of organising large-scale sessions for other players or the laborious work of preparing scores. In fact, the few scored moments that were written were later disregarded, with a whole string session with PETER BRODERICK ending up on the cutting-room floor (sorry, Peter!), along with endless hours of other material. What is left is the condensed diary of a year of exploring old tape delays, analog synths and percussion - some of which played by percussionist/composer SYTZE PRUIKSMA (a member, along with Haines, of THE ALVARET ENSEMBLE, whose debut album was released in December 2012 by Denovali Records), and some of which played and recorded in a midnight daze at Haines’ studio in Berlin. Working in this way led to a whole host of other long-term influences feeding into the music that had never found an outlet before. The experiments in dub conducted by the likes of KING TUBBY or LEE PERRY and continued by the likes of RHYTHM & SOUND had a profound effect, as did the iconic work of TONY ALLEN and other African composers. The spaced-out soundscapes found on early TANGERINE DREAM and KLAUS SCHULZE had always had a subtle influence on Greg’s work, but now armed with an arsenal of dusty studio toys, those sounds became warmer, richer and more prominent.

The influences evoked here may at first appear at odds with Greg’s previous work, but an affinity between the dense poly-rhythms of Africa and beyond have long been an influence for contemporary composers such as STEVE REICH, and their reach and importance on western music is undeniable. But now the lines have been blurred, and its impossible to say where one “style” or influence stops and another begins – something that was perhaps the only concept for this record. The symphonic synth crescendo of “So it Goes” would not have the same impact if it were not following the head-nodding drive of “Something Happened”. The delicate arpeggios of “Wake Mania Without End II” only exaggerate the unrelenting, rhythmical explosion of “Habenero”, and without starting with the intimate piano of “The Intruder”, the album’s cavernous ending wouldn’t feel so otherworldly. Its all in there or at least whats left of it after the hiss, the dirt and the degradation of the tape machine destroyed it, reworked it, and spat it back out fullyformed.

Mixed and mastered together with NILS FRAHM at his Durton Studio, Berlin. Vinyl cut by Andreas ‹ LUPO › Lubich.

GREG HAINES – 2006 – 2012 3xCd | 5x12’’ Vinyl Boxset | Digital

Over the course of seven years, British born and Berlin based composer Greg Haines has carved out an intensely beautiful corner in the vast and ever-growing musical world. He has surprised music lovers around the globe with his unique and overtly personal approach to creating and performing a very patient and contemplative music, and with his numerous projects with other musicians and choreographers, including 2012’s collaboration with the Dutch National Ballet and choreographer David Dawson, and his ongoing work with The Alvaret Ensemble, who recently released their debut as a 2xCD/2xLP with Denovali.

Perhaps his greatest contributions to the sonic world are three definitive solo albums, each on a different cult record labels. These striking works are now collected and rightfully presented as three movements of a singular musical vision in the box-set « 2006-2012 », which also marks the first time that they all are available on vinyl.

Slumber Tides (Miasmah, 2006) is Greg’s debut album, recorded and released when he was merely a teenager, seemingly tapping into a timeless wisdom where age makes no difference. It might have made more sense if Slumber Tides was the work of a composer at the end of his life, creating that final display of all the things he wanted to say but for some reason never did . . . but since we love things that don’t make sense, many music lovers around the world embraced the reserved yet bold music of this fresh young talent. The five sprawling tracks here introduce not only Greg’s knack for experimentation with different instruments and atmospheric textures, but also his gift for heartbreaking compositions, perhaps only comparable to the ground-shaking works of Arvo Pärt.

Until The Point Of Hushed Support (Sonic Pieces, 2010) is something of a departure from the more isolated soundscapes of Slumber Tides, is comprised of a single long-form composition in four parts, with a core of five string players recorded live in Berlin’s Grunewald Church. Whereas the first album comes across as a curious exploration of sound, Until The Point Of Hushed Support is a bold statement from a music lover who spent four years refining his craft. The beauty in this music is an ancient one, one which is only reached with dedication and patience. Also included on the vinyl edition is a brand new track, « The Traverse », which spans the length of Side D.

Digressions (Preservation, 2012) finds Greg returning to his own studio, delving more and more into the infinite possibilities of music production, where tiny accidental sounds can become emotional sonic moments, while adding recordings from a large student ensemble. Here, hints of woodwinds and brass are added to the instrumental palette of the first two albums. A universe of homemade sounds combine with processed layers of texture sourced from others players, such as the distinctive violin of Iden Reinhart, culminating in breathtaking crescendos which always seem to last just the right amount of time.

In light of Greg’s looming fourth solo album, Where We Were, which marks a rather drastic departure in many ways, these first three albums can now be seen as a wholesome introduction to a composer who is sure to keep surprising us in the years to come.

WITXES – A FABRIC OF BELIEFS CD | 2x12’’ | DIGITAL
WITXES – SORCERY GEOGRAPHY CD | 12’’ | DIGITAL

Denovali Records is happy to announce the re-release of Witxes’ wonderful debut Sorcery / Geography with new artwork and a bonus track on CD as well as the new album A Fabric Of Beliefs in May 2013.

This schizophrenic, feminine and plural project, leaning toward esotericism, is a sonic entity crashing popular music into singular music. Aiming at balancing improvisation and passionate sound research, WITXES’ debut ‹ Sorcery/Geography › was a witchcrafted recreation of an inmost geography. Roaming, roving and raving were giving birth to melodic spaces fed on colourful sound layers, shimmering textures and residual traces of sonic instants in which everyone can find a place.

If ‹ Sorcery/Geography › took a look into the outside world, its follow-up is definitely about looking outside the inside world. ‹ A Fabric of Beliefs › explores how our beliefs, whether they be ideas dogmas, superstitions, faith or spiritual convictions, sum up. It looks at how we pass them between us, giving shape to this ever-changing fabric; how we sew it, how we weave it, how it is hanging on us, how we try to make it fit. The album is not to be taken as a concept nor as an experimental process but more as an underlying narrative about this fabric: being the interface between our inner core and our everyday life. A Fabric of Beliefs sings stories about never ending pilgrimages, about our own personal mythologies, and the inconsistency of our strong conviction. In the light of the French language, the title widens its meaning up: « un tissu de mensonges », is an idiom used when someone is making up a whole story (literally « a fabric of lies »). The word « fabric » is also a false cognate of the word « fabrique » (a factory).

The theme of this recording may seem to be far from its predecessor, but they end up being complementary and not so distant in terms of sound, therefore completing the birth of WTIXES. A Fabric of Beliefs is, indeed, the nocturnal, pensive companion to Sorcery/Geography.

The album was mainly recorded in the French black mountains and at Mikrokosm Recording Studios near Lyon, France. Just like Sorcery/Geography, this new release features guests who were involved in the late stages of creation, post-production by Benoît Bel, mastering by Lawrence English, and artwork collaboration with Alvina Von Rhein.

At first the idea was these rough tracks, full of noises and hiss, would later be re-recorded, but as the process drew on, it became clear that these kind of loose, half-thought moments were what defined the album - often “out-oftime” or “out-of-tune”, but always adding another dimension to the hazy, analog world of sound. This hand-crafted approach led to almost everything being constructed in the old-fashioned way; not with mouse-clicks, but with two hands moving dials and everything running to an aged tape machine.

This album is the result of one person sitting alone in a room and creating something entirely personal, without the frustrations of organising large-scale sessions for other players or the laborious work of preparing scores. In fact, the few scored moments that were written were later disregarded, with a whole string session with PETER BRODERICK ending up on the cutting-room floor (sorry, Peter!), along with endless hours of other material. What is left is the condensed diary of a year of exploring old tape delays, analog synths and percussion - some of which played by percussionist/composer SYTZE PRUIKSMA (a member, along with Haines, of THE ALVARET ENSEMBLE, whose debut album was released in December 2012 by Denovali Records), and some of which played and recorded in a midnight daze at Haines’ studio in Berlin. Working in this way led to a whole host of other long-term influences feeding into the music that had never found an outlet before. The experiments in dub conducted by the likes of KING TUBBY or LEE PERRY and continued by the likes of RHYTHM & SOUND had a profound effect, as did the iconic work of TONY ALLEN and other African composers. The spaced-out soundscapes found on early TANGERINE DREAM and KLAUS SCHULZE had always had a subtle influence on Greg’s work, but now armed with an arsenal of dusty studio toys, those sounds became warmer, richer and more prominent.

The influences evoked here may at first appear at odds with Greg’s previous work, but an affinity between the dense poly-rhythms of Africa and beyond have long been an influence for contemporary composers such as STEVE REICH, and their reach and importance on western music is undeniable. But now the lines have been blurred, and its impossible to say where one “style” or influence stops and another begins – something that was perhaps the only concept for this record. The symphonic synth crescendo of “So it Goes” would not have the same impact if it were not following the head-nodding drive of “Something Happened”. The delicate arpeggios of “Wake Mania Without End II” only exaggerate the unrelenting, rhythmical explosion of “Habenero”, and without starting with the intimate piano of “The Intruder”, the album’s cavernous ending wouldn’t feel so otherworldly. Its all in there or at least whats left of it after the hiss, the dirt and the degradation of the tape machine destroyed it, reworked it, and spat it back out fullyformed.

Mixed and mastered together with NILS FRAHM at his Durton Studio, Berlin. Vinyl cut by Andreas ‹ LUPO › Lubich.

GREG HAINES – 2006 – 2012 3xCd | 5x12’’ Vinyl Boxset | Digital

Over the course of seven years, British born and Berlin based composer Greg Haines has carved out an intensely beautiful corner in the vast and ever-growing musical world. He has surprised music lovers around the globe with his unique and overtly personal approach to creating and performing a very patient and contemplative music, and with his numerous projects with other musicians and choreographers, including 2012’s collaboration with the Dutch National Ballet and choreographer David Dawson, and his ongoing work with The Alvaret Ensemble, who recently released their debut as a 2xCD/2xLP with Denovali.

Perhaps his greatest contributions to the sonic world are three definitive solo albums, each on a different cult record labels. These striking works are now collected and rightfully presented as three movements of a singular musical vision in the box-set « 2006-2012 », which also marks the first time that they all are available on vinyl.

Slumber Tides (Miasmah, 2006) is Greg’s debut album, recorded and released when he was merely a teenager, seemingly tapping into a timeless wisdom where age makes no difference. It might have made more sense if Slumber Tides was the work of a composer at the end of his life, creating that final display of all the things he wanted to say but for some reason never did . . . but since we love things that don’t make sense, many music lovers around the world embraced the reserved yet bold music of this fresh young talent. The five sprawling tracks here introduce not only Greg’s knack for experimentation with different instruments and atmospheric textures, but also his gift for heartbreaking compositions, perhaps only comparable to the ground-shaking works of Arvo Pärt.

Until The Point Of Hushed Support (Sonic Pieces, 2010) is something of a departure from the more isolated soundscapes of Slumber Tides, is comprised of a single long-form composition in four parts, with a core of five string players recorded live in Berlin’s Grunewald Church. Whereas the first album comes across as a curious exploration of sound, Until The Point Of Hushed Support is a bold statement from a music lover who spent four years refining his craft. The beauty in this music is an ancient one, one which is only reached with dedication and patience. Also included on the vinyl edition is a brand new track, « The Traverse », which spans the length of Side D.

Digressions (Preservation, 2012) finds Greg returning to his own studio, delving more and more into the infinite possibilities of music production, where tiny accidental sounds can become emotional sonic moments, while adding recordings from a large student ensemble. Here, hints of woodwinds and brass are added to the instrumental palette of the first two albums. A universe of homemade sounds combine with processed layers of texture sourced from others players, such as the distinctive violin of Iden Reinhart, culminating in breathtaking crescendos which always seem to last just the right amount of time.

In light of Greg’s looming fourth solo album, Where We Were, which marks a rather drastic departure in many ways, these first three albums can now be seen as a wholesome introduction to a composer who is sure to keep surprising us in the years to come.

Hello everyone.

We’re back with the preorder for two new marvelous releases - the new SANKT OTTEN full length ‹ ‹ Messias Maschine › › which features seven interesting guest musicians of electronic and avantgarde music - and the new album of the Canadian duo AUN called ‹ ‹ Alpha Heaven › ›.

NEW PREORDER
The German instrumental duo SANKT OTTEN - consisting of Stephan Otten (drums, programming, synthesizers) and Oliver Klemm (guitars, bass, synthesizers) - already teamed up in 1999 and joined the Denovali roster in 2009. With as much as six full length albums under their belt, their upcoming seventh longplayer ‹ ‹ Messias Maschine › › (Eng.: ‹ Messiah machine ›) is something particularly special as it features collaborations with various pioneers and great exponents of electronic and avantgarde music. On board are:

Jaki Liebezeit (drummer of Can), Miles Brown (theremin at Night Terrors), Ulrich Schnauss (synths), Coley Duane Dennis (Maserati), Harald Grosskopf (Ashra, Klaus Schulze), A.E. Paterra (Majeure, Zombi) and Christoph Clöser (sax at Bohren & der Club Of Gore and The Nest).

The work of Salustiano have been used for the artwork of the record - following up his red and black series paintings for the previous two releases ‹ ‹ Gottes Synthesizer › › and ‹ ‹ Sequencer Liebe › ›.

AUN - ‹ ‹ Alpha Heaven › ›: Walking the line between, romantic, sinister, uplifting and melancholic hazy dreams of mistuned 70’s sci-fi TV, ‹ ‹ Alpha Heaven › › is AUN’s most living and breathing recording to date. Further merging their use of sometimes temperamental vintage analog, with more contemporary electronic equipment and techniques, the concise and focused tracks, find the duo at their most luminous and earthly, while pursuing their ongoing exploration of time, space and unknown dimensions.

Both albums are now online for direct download via www.denovali.com/mp3shop and preorder (cd, vinyl) at www.denovali.com/mailorder

DENOVALI MAILORDER UPDATE
This week’s denovali mailorder update includes new records of Nadja, Year Of No Light, Portico Quartet, Efterklang (live album), Emika etc. - a complete list attached further below.

Thanks a lot for your support.

SANKT OTTEN - MESSIAS MASCHINE CD | 2x12’’ | DIGITAL

The Heavenly Music Collaboration! The German instrumental duo SANKT OTTEN - consisting of Stephan Otten (drums, programming, synthesizers) and Oliver Klemm (guitars, bass, synthesizers) - already teamed up in 1999 and joined the Denovali Records roster in 2009. With as much as six full length albums under their belt, their upcoming seventh longplayer MESSIAS MASCHINE (Eng.: ‹ Messiah machine ›) is something particularly special as it features collaborations with various pioneers and great exponents of electronic and avantgarde music.

Last summer on one of their live shows Sankt Otten met HARALD GROSSKOPF, drummer of ASHRA (as well as appearing on albums of KLAUS SCHULZE). This day wasn’t only the starting point for the collaboration with Grosskopf on the track ‹ Wenn ein Masterplan keiner ist ›, but furthermore motivated Sankt Otten to invite other musicians to contribute to their 2013 release. All but the eponymous track « Messias Maschine » feature remarkable guest musicians from different generations and musical backgrounds, resulting in an especially varied album. Participating musicians are JAKI LIEBEZEIT (CAN), ULRICH SCHNAUSS, COLEY DUANE DENNIS (Maserati) and CHRISTOPH CLÖSER (BOHREN & DER CLUB OF GORE) among others. For the artwork of Messias Maschine Spanish artist SALUSTIANO again borrowed Sankt Otten some of his significant paintings. The whole release is a wonderful masterpiece of electronic music. By mixing the unique melancholy of Sankt Otten with ingredients of contemporary synth-music and the heritage of German pioneers of progressive electronic music, the band is moving KRAUTROCK into 2013.

Sankt Otten are extremely proud having convinced legendary CAN-drummer JAKI LIEBEZEIT to collaborate. Jaki, this 75-year old « Human Drum Machine » joined with his mantric and experimental beats on three tracks. The recording sessions reconfirmed what Jaki’s fellow band member HOLGER CZUKAY once said: « Jaki plays like a machine. Just better. » Another album highlight is the appearance of ULRICH SCHNAUSS, who added some of his distinctive synth layers and percussion to the title ‹ Im Himmel angekommen ›. Furthermore, theremin maestro MILES BROWN of THE NIGHT TERRORS from Australia joined the cooperation and played a haunting melody on a 7/8 beat of Stephan Otten’s unique electronic drumming.

COLEY DUANE DENNIS, head of US-postrock legend MASERATI recorded a tremendous echo-guitar for ‹ Da kann selbst Gott nur staunen › - vesting the track with a sound that easily could have arisen from a session of KRAFTWERK playing with PINK FLOYD. Following the MAJEURE / SANKT OTTEN split album in 2011, ZOMBI / MAJEURE drummer A.E PATERRA now returns with powerful acoustic live drumming on ‹ Nach Dir die Sinnesflut ›. Finally, the album ends with an epic twelve-minute ambient track, which marvelously combines Oliver Klemm’s guitar layers with a sax solo of CHRISTOPH CLÖSER of BOHREN & DER CLUB OF GORE / THE NEST.

MESSIAS MASCHINE is indeed a heavenly music collaboration. Mostly covered in white, marvelous colour pencil drawings of Salustiano have been used for the artwork of the record - following up his red and black series paintings for the previous two releases GOTTES SYNTHESIZER and SEQUENCER LIEBE.

AUN - ALPHA HEAVEN CD | 12’’ | DIGITAL

‘Alpha Heaven’ is stepping through doors previously opened on AUN’s acclaimed 2011 ‘Phantom Ghost’ album. (’‹ essential ›’ New Noise (France), ‹ ‹ as endlessly intriguing as it is majestic › › Rock-a-Rolla (UK), ‹ ‹ extraordinary › › Indie Rock Mag (France), ‹ ‹ amazing › › Titel Mag (Germany), ‹ ‹ one of the most beautiful experiments of the new millennium › › Storia Della Musica (Italy) ).

Walking the line between, romantic, sinister, uplifting and melancholic hazy dreams of mistuned 70’s sci-fi TV, ‘Alpha Heaven’ is AUN’s most living and breathing recording to date. Mostly recorded in one take with little editing, apart from some overdubbed vocals, lounge organ and creaky acoustic piano parts. The space echoed, sometimes wobbly tape saturated tracks, evoke past and future, using a collection of electric pianos, organ, bass pedals and tapes, augmenting AUN’s otherworldly signature guitar, voice and electronics.

Further merging their use of sometimes temperamental vintage analog, with more contemporary electronic equipment and techniques, the concise and focused tracks, find the duo at their most luminous and earthly, while pursuing their ongoing exploration of time, space and unknown dimensions.

Martin Dumais: electric, midi and bass guitars, acoustic and electric piano, venus organ, synthesizers, electronic percussion, tapes, sampler
Julie Leblanc: vocals, synthesizers, piano, sampler
