Music for Developers

I created H+ with an ill-defined, oppressive feeling, like a drama playing out. Without a script, or anything predetermined, it turned out more like a feeling, a bad dream that you barely remember. This album, from my point of view, tells a contemporary story, or maybe set in the near future. It’s a human story that will probably end badly, filled with dramatic tension. But everyone, in the end, will have their own interpretation.

THE LIGHTHOUSE

“Moog Platform in the Sound Wheels” è un brano estrapolato dalla colonna sonora del film inedito Porca Zozza, un b-movie intriso delle atmosfere urbane più torbide degli anni ’70: notti illuminate da lampioni giallastri e insegne al neon, dove si intrecciano droghe, giochi d’azzardo, corse clandestine, scommesse, prostituzione e omicidi su commissione della criminalità organizzata.
Il sound del pezzo è un omaggio senza compromessi a quell’epoca: ruvido, viscerale, ma al tempo stesso elegante nel suo groove vintage. Al centro della scena troneggia il Moog, strumento simbolo della rivoluzione sonora degli anni ’70, qui portato all’estremo, trasformato in piattaforma pulsante che guida e avvolge tutto l’arrangiamento. Le linee sintetiche si intrecciano con ritmiche serrate, evocando un mondo oscuro e sensuale, dove la città è al tempo stesso tentazione e dannazione.
La forza di questo brano sta nella sua capacità di farsi colonna sonora immaginifica anche al di fuori delle immagini: l’ascoltatore viene trascinato in un film mentale, tra vicoli sporchi e locali fumosi, seguendo il battito analogico del Moog come fosse il cuore nascosto di una metropoli in decadenza.
Un esercizio di stile perfettamente centrato, capace di restituire la sporcizia sonora e il fascino estetico degli anni ’70, con una sensibilità contemporanea che non ne annulla, ma anzi ne esalta la potenza evocativa.

Stellardrone - Ascent

Olivier Orand is an electronic / IDM producer whose debut album, Human, made quite an impact when it was originally released in 2008 under the monicker Hol Baumann. From 2017 the French soundscaper decided to produce music under his own name, and in 2019 Sidereal took care of Human re-release on CD and 2LP.

Mostly influenced by the early electronic UK scene, Olivier Orand’s music, mixing strength and sensitiveness are focused on feelings and pictorial connections. After his debut album, Orand pushed his expression through his latest sound explorations, based on “unstructured” vocals and sharper sound designs. All this flowed into the producer’s long-awaited sophomore album, H+.
