This long-awaited project from A Tribe Called Kotori marks the collective's first full-length venture, featuring the immensely talented Rampue. Known for his phantasmagorical soundscapes, Rampue navigates the realms of electronica, abstract music, and balearic-infused progressive house with exceptional mastery. Based in Berlin, this virtuoso manages to mesmerize and elevate listeners through twelve extraordinary tracks, forming the foundation of this resplendently textured sonic journey. His compositions oscillate between understated euphoria and riveting exoticism, reflecting his prowess in evoking contrasting emotions through his music.

The creative journey leading to the birth of 'Bubblebath Trance' is a tale of irony and serenity intertwined. As Rampue recalls, "It all started and ended in the same moment: my cherished feline companion, my laptop awash with an unintended bath, and alas, a dearth of backups." This unfortunate series of events led to an outcome echoing a kind of chaotic tranquility. This serenity, born from stepping into a bubbling primitive chaos, permeates throughout the album, enriching the overall listening experience.

Rampue's debut album subtly imitates the "euphonious strains" of iconic PlayStation 1 video game soundtracks from his youth. The music sweeps listeners into a paradoxical emotional experience—imbued with nostalgia, yet vibrant and dynamic. It’s as though listeners are offered a bird's eye view of the world below, allowing them to rise slowly through the atmosphere's layers towards uncharted territories.

Rampue’s artistic mastery shines in ‘Harmonie,’ a true paragon of his unique take on classic electronica. The track radiates a poetic flame, consuming and transforming all within its reach. Picture yourself riding a chocobo across the sandy expanses of North Corel while this composition echoes in the distance. It paints a vivid scene for Final Fantasy VII aficionados.

The album embraces a rich variety of musical hues and subtleties. From the brass-heavy coastal jazz influences in 'Schattenschranz', to the chopped-up, trip-hop-adjacent electronics in 'Inside', Rampue demonstrates his ability to shape-shift across genres. Other tracks like the joyously chaotic 'Tripomatic', and 'Ich hasse Sonne', with its cinematic flair, contribute to the diverse soundscape.

The album’s eponymous track, 'Bubblebath Trance', is a piece both exuberant and deeply moving. It could well serve as the album’s centerpiece—a lucid dream of dancing shapes, colors, and sentiments to envelop your consciousness. It elegantly drifts from a liminal state of awareness into the rapids of one's inner turmoil, offering a mirror into the artist's inner world.

To round off this musical odyssey, the tranquil ambient tones of 'Die Leiden des hungrigen Fruehstuecks' seal the album with a stamp of affirmation. 'Bubblebath Trance' emerges as a rare class of albums—one that creates its own lexicon apart from the usual norms and expectations. It educates the listener with its new language, weaving through their ears, challenging the boundaries between the real and unreal.

This album exists as an ethereal object, withholding its secrets even after countless listens and awe-inspiring moments. It's an ever-evolving musical enigma, with its meaning and interpretation left to the listener's perception. It resists being confined to any singular definition, instead unfolding in real-time to the rhythm of the listener's heart and mind. The release date is set for August 25, 2023, and is sure to be a milestone in Rampue's career and for A Tribe Called Kotori.

Second single taken from Rampue's forthcoming album 'Bubblebath Trance', which also marks A Tribe Called Kotori's first foray into full-length territories, here comes 'Verfahren / Schattenschranz'. Cut from the same immaculate, ethereal cloth that's come to define his smoothly oneiric style over the years, this new pair of bleached-out belters from the Berlin-based escapologist treats us to an effortlessly lush tableau of both wistful and dynamic electronica, tear-jerking and multi-dimensional in essence. Fuelled on kodachromatic beachside vibes and faux balearic-infused jazz, Rampue's sonic postcards are true poetry in motion, as their deep and largely dubbed-out flavours reveal themselves on a drip tease flex, fleshing out with unheard levels of detail and depth as you listen to them more attentively. 

A total mindtrip of a track and deeply cinematic object, 'Verfahren' embraces Rampue's hair-raising take on the classic electronica formula and injects it with an ambrosial nectar of uplifting trancey motifs and pixelated beauty akin to his beloved PS1 games' soundtracks. Transporting downtempo beauties for the dance floor and not, sure to teleport you right up captivating dreamlands and away from the daily struggle. Dunked in thick puddles of tape delays and rippling reverbs, 'Schattenschranz' resounds with echoes from easternmost melodies and coastal jazz harmonics, weaving its own narrative at the conjunction of heavy-lidded boogie and Latin brass music to fascinating effect. Feet buried deep into a white blanket of sand, your mind wandering off to some exotic Shangri-La, Rampue's music is a vessel to a whole other world, where burdens get wings of their own and hopefulness is the master plan. Electronics at its most refreshingly tuneful and forward-looking.
