The album was made in 11 days with instant composing, recording the main 5 tracks on the rc505 with my as153 guitar and sounds of the sy300 and some (mostly drum) samples of the mpc500 by finger drumming, recording this as a stereo track with an instant arrangement with some rc505 effects to the daw, adding some melodies, sounds, atmospheres, samples for transitions, mixing this, learning a bit about mastering, mastering this, choosing an order, checking out on a fat pa system, done.
The music is interested in inventing some new beats or rhythmic feels for future dance steps and life styles. Means combining a lot of spirit of and knowledge about Jazz, Indian Music, New Music, Beat Music, IDM, Electronica to a new thing called SUBWATER BEATS.
With a large use of polyrhythms, equi distance rhythms, isorhythms, (double, triple) displacements, rhythms with two and three brackets, isomelodies, uncommon subdivisions, harmonic and metric superimpositions, brain and soul this happened in a hyper creative mood with always staying in 4/4 meter.
... Whatever, the main thing is it sounds and feels fresh, encouraging, bouncy, dancy, fat, real, spirited, bubbly...

„We are stunned, hallucinated, crazy with musical sickness, immersed in these incredible beats that the artist has created, it's all so avant-garde and beautiful, everything so spatial, a wonderful revelation of musical experience, we love it and can't wait to see him in Brazil one day and feel this impressive music live.

An electronic transcendental journey and impressive work of art, it is a rocket straight into space and so different from anything we have ever heard

Not to spoil your surprise about this album, we can only say that we will never be the same after listening to the 13 impressive works of art that Beatdenker delivers, the album causes sensations in our body and mind that are indescribable, it is not just an album, it is an experience that everyone needs to have.“ - Indieoclock / Brazil

 

„When it comes to his recorded music, he stretches the boundary just as far. Inventive and intriguing, his music fuses elements of beats and rhythms with Future Dance, Jazz and New World influences culminating in a sound crafted from extraordinary imagination. he offers a sound from the meta IDM world.

Taking twists and turns at every step, the album lays down a vast exploration of experimental music with constantly evolving stuttered rhythms throughout. An incredible album! Such a mesmerising piece of art!“ - Plasticmag / London
