Nils Frahm - Says

In 'After This, Because Of This,' Siegfried Jünger crafts an ambient composition with a serene atmosphere. The track features distant drums, a melodic bassline, and drone synths, alongside a gentle piano melody.

The music unfolds calmly, inviting listeners into a reflective mood. Distant drums provide a subtle rhythm while the piano melody adds a touch of emotion. The melodic bassline grounds the composition, giving it a sense of depth and continuity.

'After This, Because Of This' creates a tranquil sonic space for introspection and relaxation. It's a testament to Jünger's skill in blending elements of ambient music to evoke a sense of calm and contemplation."

After This, Because Of This - Siegfried Jünger. Ambient music. Ambient type beat.

The iconic Penguin Cafe join the Erased Tapes family and open a brand new chapter to their unique world with new album The Imperfect Sea – out on Erased Tapes 5th May 2017.

A penguin stands in the middle of a scorching desert, far away from its natural habitat. This mirrors composer Arthur Jeffes’ journey and exploration into a new musical territory. Penguin Cafe have evolved into something of their own at the hands of Arthur who started the band in 2009 with the continuation and homage to his father’s legacy, to the late Simon Jeffes’ Penguin Cafe Orchestra. Now, their upcoming album echoes reminiscent sounds that embrace the new.

The album title refers to a saying by his father that “we wade in a sea of imperfections…”, reflecting upon the idea that beauty can be found amongst the chaos. “If there is a narrative to the album it’s coming to the acceptance of the imperfections in all aspects of life; moreover, the recognition that these imperfections and tiny randomnesses are in fact what make up the best parts”, Arthur explains. This has also been highlighted by the striking cover artwork designed by FELD under the art direction of label founder Robert Raths, resembling a lone figure adapting to and accepting its surrounding environment.

Predominantly self-composed, the new album also features covers of electronic works by Simian Mobile Disco and Kraftwerk, along with a re-working of Simon's 'Now Nothing'. Arthur has developed from the traditional folk and jazz heritage Penguin Cafe Orchestra is known for into another realm of blissful ambience and dance music, recreated using strictly acoustic elements.

“For this album I wanted to effect a departure from where we’d been up to now. The idea was to create a musical world that would feel familiar to an audience more used to dance records but stay true to our own values. So we replaced electronic layers with real instruments: pads with real string sections, synths with heavily-effected pianos, and atmospheric analogue drones with real feedback loops ringing through a stone and a piano soundboard.”

On the day of release, the band will play a headline show at New York’s Le Poisson Rouge, commencing the beginning of this new adventure for Penguin Cafe.

Full stream of 'Just Passing Through' by The Greatest Hoax. Taken from the album 'Expiration Compositions' forthcoming on Serein (June 23rd, 2017). The album will be out on CD, Vinyl and digital formats.

Just Passing Through was first premiered by Cyclic Defrost on May 30th, 2017.

“Expiration Composition is not just an album about death; it reflects a sense of happiness for one’s life. The subject is often heavy, but my intention is to encourage listeners to appreciate their lives knowing they are finite.” – Taylor Jordan (The Greatest Hoax)

Carlos Cipa & Occupanther - Branches (Original Mix)

"Absolutely fantastic piece of music! Robot Koch is an amazing producer."
Premiered by @kolsch on BBC Radio 1.
Mastered by Mark Dobson at @codamastering.

“I really enjoyed making this remix for Matt Emery” says Koch. “The original piece was already stunning and it was fun to work with the piano and strings stems in a more electronic context. I tried to stay true to the original composition to a degree while still taking the whole thing into my own sound universe.”

Serein is a record label based in Wales, the UK. Since our beginnings as a net-label in 2005 we have featured artists from across the world on numerous recordings released digitally and on CD and vinyl. While focussing predominantly on crossover ambient styles, we try not to limit ourselves to any one genre. Listening to our music is the best way to get to know us!

Our music is frequently used in TV and film productions, regularly receives international radio airplay and has been featured in several highly regarded printed publications and online magazines. We're extremely lucky to have a loyal and exacting fan base, many of whom have been following our output since day one.

Our aim since then has remained the same, to call attention to music that we think is deserving of your time. We're excited by advancements in technology and how they can facilitate new ways to enjoy music and video. In 2005 we were distributing music digitally in MP3 format before it was seen as a financial opportunity by the music industry at large. We love the internet for the creative freedom it allows and the connections it's helped us make.

The name Serein was taken from a meteorological dictionary, it is used to describe 'fine rain falling from a clear sky after sunset'. We pronounce it seh-rain, you can say it however you want.
