B.P.T. Radio 036: Tornado Wallace

UUUU – the eagerly anticipated new long player from Danish band WhoMadeWho – is out today, May 27, via Embassy One.

A beautifully crafted record exploring myriad sonic palettes across a deftly considered offering of stirring vocal electronica cuts, UUUU is the band’s seventh full-length studio album since forming back in 2003 and marks another career-defining moment for three artists whose collective creativity and musicianship knows no constraint.

A truly captivating and emotive body of work spanning a remarkable scope of texture, tonality and timbre, the long player features a total of thirteen majestic vocal-led compositions, including the critically acclaimed album singles Mermaids, Summer, Silence & Secrets and UUUU with Rampa.

Accompanying these established favourites is an ethereal selection of brand new vocal offerings, including The Fall, Moon After Moon, Elsewhere ft. Kat Frankie), LIFE, Everyday with Rampa, Never Alone and 11-11 ft. AVA4K (amongst others), as WhoMadeWho take the listener on a mind-altering voyage through sound to bring us one of the most eagerly anticipated records of 2022 so far.

Steadfast in their quest to deliver extraordinary sensory experiences, WhoMadeWho continue to revel in the blurring of musical boundaries with this latest opus – reimagining their long- standing affinity for organic, instrument-led music within a uniquely electronic paradigm. Undulating across its sixty-three minute run-time, chugging down-tempo cuts sit handsomely alongside juxtaposed moments of reflective melancholy and rousing euphoria as modular soundscapes and stripped-back instrumentation bolster the hypnotic spirit of WhoMadeWho’s musical hallmark to conjure a thought-provoking journey that keeps the listener on their toes from the outset.

Honingbeer - „Opia EP“
“Opia“ sees Honingbeer’s musical colors shine, it’s a fully realized vision informed by her background in classical music and her never-ending curiosity about state of the art production. The result is big, dramatic and bold. It’s filled with emotional warmth and sincerity. It’s pure and constantly surprising in the best possible way. It’s Neo-Classic. But it isn’t, really. So, if you are of the opinion to exactly know how music made by violin and electronics sound like, Honingbeer will prove you wrong.

Her debut EP for Bigamo was written during the pandemic while she was living alone - and partly didn’t have a home, actually. Opia, by definition, is a defect in vision. In terms of Honingbeer’s music, it refers to a rather different kind of self-reflection, as she wasn’t shying away from challenging her mirror image to take her to the deepest discomfort hidden in her subconsciousness. The effect of this journey was a cathartic one, as it made her reach a new found musical autonomy while she learned to understand solitude as something that makes her feel safe and sound. 

Sometimes, in order to decide if something’s good or bad for you, you have no other choice than placing yourself right in the midst of it. Honingbeer did exactly that while writing this material. And luckily, she isn’t sparing us the details.

Connections w/ Âme (4/2/23)

“Fauna & Flora” it’s now out in the world.

I wanted to include everything that I am as a musician and DJ in it, what I listen to daily and what shapes me as an artist. Conceptually I wanted to represent moments of light and darkness, perfection and imperfection, rawness and hyper-polishment. My aim was to illustrate this conflict between worlds and while making them coexist. 

An album for me it’s where you can experiment and try to show your full scope as an artist. Subconsciously it’s all there. I hope it is as challenging for you as it was for me. That evokes feelings, reactions, emotions, conversations and thoughtfulness. 

From now on it’s not mine anymore, it’s from you. It’s from the world, it’s from the ones that take time of their valuable life to listen. Own it, disown it, love it or hate it - it’s from me to you.

Thanks to everyone that directly or indirectly helped this project come together.
From all the collaborators to behind the scenes friends that worked towards this goal.

Dixon executive produced all the tracks in this album, he worked tirelessly like it was his own music. And in the end it became. In the end it is.
His ability to push new frontiers forward, unapologetically, without looking back or asking for permission  is a big inspiration and this album could only happen because of his openness for new sounds and challenges. He offered a home for this album to exist. I truly appreciate all you’ve done not only in this project but in life. Thank you Steffen, thank you Frank and Kristian (Âme).

The album opener "My Desire" pins down the essence of the album, showing some pop sensibility and a healthy dose of that early 90s spirit with longing vocals by Rhys Evans. The track shows from many angles of the intensity of what club culture was about. The track has, for sure, that pop quality which sets it apart - it is a very complete and rounded and in the true sense, a hit.
