Nimon - Fear Of Change

2015-09-16 (News)

In 2014, sweeping changes took place in Keef Baker's life: he decided to move from his hometown for not just a new job but a new way of working which meant new challenges and far-reaching adaptations to his private life. Besides the adventurous aspects of such a sharp break there were many other things to cope with, as nearly anyone knows by experience: there is hope, there is curiousness, but there is also uncertainness and fear. On this fourth album of his project Nimon Keef took a stab turning these mixed emotions into music with excellent results. 'Fear Of Change' delivers a multitude of moods to accompany drastic personal breaks: scepticism, expectation, apprehension, grief, and anticipation. Meditative ambient sound tapestries generated with a processed electric guitar create a continuous flow of melancholia and bliss. An entrancing, intriguing and deeply personal album which is part of an exceptional artist's aural diary as well as a possible reverberation of the listener's very own experiences.

Along with 20th anniversary Tim Kniep and Philipp Münch a.k.a. Synapscape present their tenth full length album 'Rhythm Age'. As the album title suggests, the release is focused on most different beat variations, ranging from straight and distorted to technoid, complex and even broken. These manifold rhythmic textures build a solid foundation for both atmospheric and powerful electronic landscapes, solid bass lines, nuanced lead synths, and Tim Kniep's distinctive processed voice. stylistically, Synapscape ventured from the often used formulaic norm of the industrial genre from the very beginning into different territories - 'Rhythm Age' provides an even more detailed insight into this project's musically varied sound-design. The thirteen tracks are combination of rhythmic industrial, idm, electroclash and experimental tunes with the hard-to-define, special character of Synapscape's work approach. This album is merging modern versus ancient, as digital and analogue as music can get.

That's not to say it's all a barrel of laughs though; we're still drawn to the darker side."
