░▒▓█ＳＥＲＰＥＮＴ／／ＢＲＥＡＴＨ█▓▒░

The first taste of Dyschronia, the brilliant  seventh album by prolific German experimentalist Markus Mehr. The album drops on the 16th of May 2017 through Hidden Shoal in digital and limited edition cassette formats.
 
Dyschronia is a complex, musically exhilarating exploration of our modern perception of time. As our temporal relationships have become unmoored from natural rhythms, we experience profound disconnection and distortion, leaving us disoriented and disturbed. Mehr crafted the seven pieces over the course of more than five years, resulting in a dizzying collage of sound that both conveys and charts a path through digital consciousness.

Dyschronia simultaneously employs and dissolves electronic markers, creating a heady and at times groundless ride. As with all Mehr’s work, the album is challenging yet incredibly satisfying, shot through with moments of quite staggering beauty, such as the haunting acoustic guitar melody in ‘Dyschronia 4’. At the album’s conclusion, the sample “Why didn’t you destroy the tapes?” speaks to our inability to escape surveillance, our very lives enmeshed in the technology we have created in our attempts at liberation.

“pushing his emotionally-charged sonic sculptures into much more dangerous and unpredictable territory... Totally mesmerizing and beautiful.” – Decoder Magazine on Binary Rooms

Markus Mehr - Dyschronia 4

Part of the opening track from my latest ambient album Real Life and How To Avoid It, out on CD, download and streamies.

This track (like most of my music) was improvised live in my studio with most of my synths rather than just the laptop. 
It is another example of me exploring ways of making even more minimal music that is still satisfying.

This is a song about someone falling in love with a hologram. Or maybe about a hologram who falls in love with someone. I dedicate it to Erasmo Carlos, Louise Brooks, and The Flamingos.
