"Tuur mang Welten"
OUT NOW via Unperceived Records

„Tuur mang Welten“ - translated „Journey between Worlds“ is the melodious title of Niklas Paschburg's first EP. 

Niklas is originally from the big city, but lives in the countryside now. Aged four he played his first notes on the piano of his grandparents. Aged five he took piano lessons by his own request. Unlike other musicians, who feel a longing to move to world metropoles, Niklas, after having northern German harbors, seagulls, and fish markets in his life now enjoys the southern loneliness of forests, wide landscapes and the fragrant scent of pine woods. 
Inspired by both worlds Niklas creates an acoustic symbiosis in form of enchanting piano compositions with fine electronic additions on his EP „Tuur mang Welten“. 

His debut Single „DAWN“, which is also contained in the EP, captures the pulse of the city in a charming and touching way. While you are most likely to hear the echoes of urban life in this piece, "Tuur mang Welten" also features quieter and darker musical realms.

Tine Grgurevič (born in 1983 in Ljubljana), who goes by the name Bowrain, is a Slovenian composer, pianist, and music producer. Since 2014, when his debut album Far Out was released, Bowrain has been fascinating audiences with his unconventional music, which combines piano, composition, vocals, DJing and producing. This genre-bending music extends from classical and jazz to ambient, electronica, ethno and indie pop. This album was followed in 2017 by Distracted: a substantively engaging piece of music that responds to the challenges of that time’s political (Saudade, Asil, Refugee) and social issues (Time, Continuum, Home), with the piano at the heart of the album’s intimacy. In January 2020, Bowrain offered up a grandiose musical project entitled 2020 Seconds Alive, that envisioned as a journey through his life and musical outposts, with an emphasis on his collaboration with the South African band The Brother Moves On. This project was strongly influenced by Bowrain’s one-month residency in Johannesburg in December 2019. In 2022, Bowrain released two collaborative albums, Not Exactly Lost and BLOOM, which he created with musician and painter Luka Uršič - KALU and the multimedia artist JAŠA.
In April 2023, he released a solo album entitled Heal Me, which was recorded and mixed by Simon Goff in Berlin’s Vox – Ton studio. In addition to his full-length albums, he has also released several singles and EPs and composed music for works in the fields of visual arts, performing arts, and theater. He performs internationally, most often in Europe, but has also performed in the United States and South Africa. Bowrain’s live performances are delightfully unpredictable. Sometimes he appears with the accompaniment of a trio, a small orchestra or a choir, while in other cases he appears alone at the piano, with or without electronics.

“That’s why this wonderful album, is healing in nature and it’s no surprise that the trackHeal Me closes it. It’s as if you slowly enter the space opened by the piano pastoral, as a simple expression of strengthening the spirit and unwavering optimism when it comes to people, nature, vivid glowing colours, blue sky, hills and valleys, birdsong and joyful children’s chirping. All the way to love.”
- Miroslav Akrapović (Odzven) about the album Heal Me.

“Composer Tine Grgurevič drifts effortlessly between avantgarde jazz, pop and electronic music with a keen sense for minimalism and clarity that distinguishes his style across genres” - Eric Moses

Max Richter trained in composition and piano at Edinburgh University, at the Royal Academy of Music, and with Luciano Berio in Florence.

On completing his studies, Max co-founded the iconoclastic classical ensemble Piano Circus, where he stayed for ten years, commissioning and performing works by Arvo Pärt, Brian Eno, Philip Glass, Julia Wolfe and Steve Reich.

In the late 90s he worked with a number of electronic artists, notably Future Sound of London on their album 'Dead Cities". He subsequently collaborated with FSOL over a period of two years, also contributing to the albums "The Isness" and "The Peppermint Tree and Seeds of Superconsciousness". Max also collaborated with Mercury Prize winner Roni Size, on "In the Mode".

In June 2002, Max released his debut solo album, "memoryhouse", recorded with The BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. This was followed in March 2004 by FatCat's release of "The Blue Notebooks", with featured readings by Tilda Swinton.

In 2005 Max produced Vashti Bunyan's outstanding comeback album "Lookaftering".

2006 saw the release of "Songs From Before" based on Haruki Murakami texts read by Robert Wyatt. That same year, Max began performing "from The Art of Mirrors", an evolving score to previously unseen Super 8mm films of Derek Jarman.

Max's more recent work continues to stretch the notions of what Classical music is.  ‘24 Postcards In Full Colour’, released in August 2008, is an experimental work made up of 24 composed ringtones.

Max works widely in film music, installation and the theatre, most recently on INFRA, made with Wayne MacGregor and Julian Opie for The Royal Ballet, London. The Ballet was the subject of a BBC 'making of' documentary.

Max was named 2008 European Composer Of The Year for his score to Ari Folman's Waltz With Bashir, for which he was also nominated for the Prix France Musique.
