Vapor / Daniel Klauser

Por Sebastián Herrera

El imperceptible peso del sonido se cuela como una vieja historia que busca ingresar, acontecer el sonido contemporáneo y retromaniaco que recicla, restituye y resignifica. Aquí el jazz, el funk, y el groove de la historia negra, levita y celebra el encuentro con lo latinoamericano. Baile, sudor y humaredas destiladas caen y se evaporan, el cuerpo se transforma en un espacio de ensueño, la piel en territorio de vestigios, el suelo en espacio tribal, y la atmósfera elogia la levitación de armonías que se encumbran en ritmos celestiales.

La voz se cuela entre samples, gestos, tributos y particularidad. Daniel Klauser busca e insiste en torcer los parámetros establecidos, no con lo extraño, sino con lo cotidiano, como un sueño que se abre paso dentro de imágenes borrosas que se avecinan como alucinaciones lisérgicas, que sedan y anestesian hasta conseguir el trance. Los sonidos son oropel de los perímetros iridiscentes, balizas que muestran y esconden, como esquinas donde los esbirros de la música celebran la rebeldía de los días siempre nocturnos.

Sensual, sexual, andrógino, mestizo, rítmico, extraño, trunco, y claro como un río que encuentra, en su continuo flujo, los meandros en los que se desliza el canon de la cultura dance, el soul, disco, dub, r&b,funk, que se mixtura con bossa nova, samba, jazz, y adereza con reminiscencias latinoamericanas, acordes de guitarras que recuerdan el rock de ritmos, motivos y sonidos sudacas, armando una procesión diabólica, emergida de las alcantarillas y convertida en vaho o vapor de una suave niebla, que impide ver el horizonte y clava los ojos en los pies del aquí y ahora.

Pasajes oscuros y espesos, que viajan en atmosferas ondulantes, se mantienen en suspenso en el hábitat de una pipa de agua sónica; humo en combustión, que se evapora entre bronces, beats, y ritmos sincopados. Vapor es un disco que funciona como paisaje mental, como mantra y alucinación, como fiesta tribal y desorden dionisiaco; un barco ebrio, que embiste las visiones que se esparcen como una exhalación cannábica que flota
entro de una habitación lenta y estrellada.

El desorden de los sentidos, tiempo y distancia, se presentan “sin timón y en el delirio” de una secuencia de infiernos, opacidades y claroscuros, de un sonido particular y destellante.

MAX DO - 5 YEAR CREVETTE INSTORE

It's dark in the forest. Especially in the »northwest«. You have to adjust all your senses. But once you have, the forest will take you in his arms. The forest will protect you. Just like Daniel Herrmann's first album for Live At Robert Johnson will protect you.

Herrmann is far from being unknown in the world of music - let alone in the art or photography world. In the music field, he is probably much more known under his Flug 8 moniker where he released five albums on Disko B, Doxa Records, Ransom Note, and Acid Pauli's Smaul Recordings. Under his given name, Daniel Herrmann's relationship with LARJ's label boss Ata Macias goes way back. As an artist and photographer Herrmann was the only one allowed to take pictures inside Ata's ROBERT JOHNSON club, thus creating an iconic series of pictures of clubbers and club life in general. Herrmann’s pictures of the partying punters themselves were presented as wallpaper all over Robert Johnson back in 2002.

With »Enroute« Herrmann enters new territory: It is his most ambient work up to today. And yes, it is a piece of work created during the lockdown. Herrmann's studio is situated in the outskirts of Frankfurt, near the forest - a quite remote place already in-between the Taunus mountain range. Imagine life during the lockdown in such a place … This is where Herrmann set up his former basement studio in the large living room with a variety of instruments besides a cozy fireplace spending warm light and warmth. A warmth that despite its seemingly rather "cold" atmosphere can be heard all over »Enroute«. Once you soak in the sounds (or get soaked into the sounds) of the first tracks like album opener »northwest«, »Fly By Wire« or the 11min »Dark Trace« you might feel this warmth too. A cold warmth you could say, yet a warmth that only modular systems and synthesizers can create.

There is a change of mood with »Intercontinental« - literally as it seems that Herrmann indeed is on an intercontinental journey here despite the strolls and long walks in silence through the Taunus forest. This is also the place where Herrmann took many photographs of the forest and its trees (to be seen on his Instagram account) - and the picture on the cover: This spooky yet fragile high seat in the mist in front of those trees. Yet darkness alone is not dominating this album. Even during these dark days, there was a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. And it shows in the beauty of »Bouncing Rays«.

»Enroute« is done all alone and in total isolation. And one can hear it. But it also invites the listener to be a part of this lonely world. And we all know that being lonely is made easier with someone on your side - »enroute« to a better place. A place that isn't lonely at all.

PS: For all digital music lovers we have included two bonus tracks: The GLOK remix of »Bouncing Rays« and Herrmann's clattering and creaking tune »Economy« - enjoy!

"‘We’ll Cross Paths Again’ est une invitation à l’espoir et à la reconnexion. Entre lumière et sérénité, cette chanson évoque la promesse de se retrouver, peu importe la distance ou le temps. Laissez-vous porter par ses mélodies apaisantes et ses harmonies lumineuses, comme un ciel bleu qui annonce de nouveaux commencements."

TEN BRAINS - PIPE (HIM007)

Ten Brains! Much can be achieved with One Brain, so it begs the question: how much goodness can be conceived with Ten?! There is a very clear and definitive answer, concealed in the aural fine print of the debut Ten Brains release, PIPE, which finds a cosy home on Houses in Motion.

Crisp and emotionally pervasive, the record is punctuated by playful basslines, melodic quips and bouncing broken beats; as fitting in the rainforest as in a jungle of heaving bodies in a dark room.

Taking the reins for the flipside’s reinterpretations are trusty pilots RP and Andy Garvey, who both add a large helping of heat and euphoria to the mix.

The future sound of now is here, tomorrow and always, courtesy of Ten Brains.
