Aaron Martin & Christoph Berg’s split called “Day Has Ended” is a piece of quiet, intimate music, interfused with daylight and covered by a soft mist of evening dreams. This album spans the course of a day until the point where night falls.

The first part, created by Aaron Martin, is a water-colour, cool and delicate. The twinkling sun reflected itself in a slow river, transparent silvery clouds sparkle and brush the heads of drowsy trees. The closer to the middle of the album, the lower goes the gentle shadow, saturating. In the second part - Christoph Berg’s one, water-colour turns into gouache. The sound becomes more full, more sensuous, it comes in waves, like breath of a sleeping man.

Just close your eyes, be all ears and you’ll feel – the night is not silent. Sweet tune of twilight and darkness full of echo, humming blue, vague voice of the strings and clear gleaming of bright stars in a velvet sky – that is the night.

It’s a perfect and severely sincere work, slightly bittered with melancholy.

Aaron Martin is a very talented multi-instrumentalist from Topeka, Kansas who has releases on such labels as Experimedia, Preservation, Under The Spire, Sonic Meditations.

Christoph Berg is composer and sound artist currently living and working in Berlin focusing on fragile acoustic chamber music compositions. Also writes electro-acoustic music as Field Rotation. He has releases on Facture, hibernate, Denovali Records, Fluid Audio.

"It's just incredible" – Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC 6 Music
“Strangely upbeat nocturnes" – The Wire

‘Spells’ merges programmed piano pieces with live instruments, combining the controllable technical world and the often unpredictable aspects of live improvisation. In some ways it continues where his underground debut ‘Gravity’ left off, though a lot of weight is lifted, making room for a lighter and more energetic listen. Friend and fellow Erased Tapes artist Nils Frahm mixed and mastered both albums. Ben is not a master pianist like his dear friend, but his sound collages are so meticulously designed that after hearing the result an impressed Nils declared: “from now on, if anyone asks – this is a real piano”. 

His intricate, humanised programming – enhanced by drummer Achim Färber, cellist Anton Peisakhov and harpist Lara Somogyi, and a considerate selection of echoes, delays and compressors – has been used to create a hybrid sound that intends to deceive, question and challenge existing listening habits. Utilising the contrast between reduction and decoration, ‘Spells’ can be seen as a quest to find out how much or how little composition is required to constitute a song. Why the ear can and should be deceived about the authenticity of instruments. What significance these instruments have within this process, and why the personal perception of balance and sound exclude ultimate truths. 

Linking the two albums are the four movements of ‘Nocturne’, an ever-developing conversation that on occasion flirts with the grandeur of compressed rock drums. The first single, ‘Golden Times 1’, received a world premiere by BBC 6 Music’s Mary Anne Hobbs, proclaiming it as "incredible." An alternative version of ‘Sleepers Beat Theme’ – composed for the soundtrack to a short film about the Trans-Siberian Express – opened Jon Hopkins’ Late Night Tales album from 2015, who noted “I thought it was such a calming and sensitive piece that sounded to me like the beginning of something...the warmth and depth of the sound entrances me every time”. 

Though ‘Spells’ and ‘Gravity’ are his first albums recorded under his own name, as acclaimed electronic producer HECQ he’s released nine albums since 2003, exploring everything from ambient to breakcore. He has simultaneously established himself as a trusted composer and sound designer, working for a wide array of clients including Amnesty International and Marvel Comics; composing for feature films, games, art installations and convention opening titles.

After embracing this demanding line of work, in 2010 Ben felt the need to explore his roots and early education, which inspired these albums under his own name. Born in 1981 as the third child of opera singer Deirdre Boysen and actor Claus Boysen, his classical music training on piano and guitar began when he was seven years old; the works of Bruckner, Wagner and Bach laid an important foundation. Rediscovering this music shared with his parents – united with the sounds of Autechre, Cristian Vogel and Jiri.Ceiver to Pink Floyd and Godspeed You! Black Emperor – brought back an understanding of why he wanted to write music in the first place.

“Finding my views understood, reflected and welcomed by Erased Tapes was an encouraging experience, crowned by the offer to release ‘Spells’ and re-issue ‘Gravity’ with them. Through many caring conversations with Robert I felt that there’s no better home for the existing ideas and no better cradle for new ones.”  – Ben Lukas Boysen

Standing at the intersection where techno meets classical music, Ólafur Arnalds directs the new Late Night Tales.

“When I was asked to do the next installation of the Late Night Tales series I thought "This will be fun and easy, only a couple of days work. No problem!". Six months later, I was still pulling my hair out in some kind of quest to make the perfect mix. As someone who has never really done mixes before, I learned a lot of things along the way and the whole experience was very inspiring. I decided to approach the mix in a similar way as I would one of my scores. This is the soundtrack of my life. I included songs from many of my friends and collaborators and tried to deliver a mix that represents who I am as an artist and where my influences are coming from - both personally and musically.” - Ólafur Arnalds, March 2016

MWTE est un groupe de musique électronique originaire de Metz. Si les premiers morceaux à forte tendance electronica datent de 2012, c'est fin 2013 avec la sortie d'un premier EP et les premiers concerts, que le quartet sort de la petite chambre dans laquelle il enregistre ses morceaux jusqu'ici.

Ce premier EP, Attraction To Light, est produit par Victor Ferreira (Sun Glitters) et masterisé par Antony Ryan (isan). Il comporte deux morceaux, ainsi que des remixes par Chapelier Fou, Sun Glitters, Herr2003 et Armagnac. L'EP est rapidement remarqué par un certain nombre de blogs musicaux (Hillydilly, Bitcandy, Soniscope, Novorama...).

Les concerts, eux, mènent le groupe du Festival Musiques Volantes (Atom TM, Discodéine, Elektro Guzzi...) au Out Of The Crowd (avec Breton, Siriusmo...), en passant par l'Exit07 (avec Baths) et L'Autre Canal (en compagnie de Pégase et Rich Aucoin), jusqu'aux festival des Inrocks Lab à la Gaité Lyrique (en mai 2014). Lors de ces dates, MWTE s'éloigne de la caricature du live electro : avec basse, guitare, voix et effets le groupe joue au milieu du public, une proximité favorisant probablement l'immersion dans le voyage intérieur proposé.

Quant à la musique, puisque c'est avant tout de cela dont il qu'est question, elle n'est pas si simple à définir, comme l'indiquent les multiples étiquettes hâtivement collées au groupe : chillwave ? Dream pop ? Postrock électronique ? Peu importe, finalement, tant que les rythmes, les mélodies et la délicatesse qui se dégagent de leurs compositions nous emportent au-delà, pour une odyssée où l’on se surprend à danser... dedans.


:::::::::::::::::::::::


MWTE is an electronic band from Metz. While the first electronica tracks were made in 2012, the quartet came out of their small recording room late 2013 for their first shows along with their debut EP.

This EP, Attraction To Light, was produced by Victor Ferreira (Sun Glitters) and mastered by Antony Ryan (Isan). It contains two original tracks and remixes by Chapelier Fou, Sun Glitters, Herr2003 and Armagnac. The EP was quickly noticed by a number of music blogs (Hillydilly, Bitcandy, Soniscope, Novorama...).

The shows brought the band to the festival Musiques Volantes (Atom TM, Discodéine, Elektro Guzzi...) the Out Of The Crowd fest (with Breton, Siriusmo...), Exit07 (with Baths), L'Autre Canal (with Pégase and Rich Aucoin), and to the festival Les Inrocks Lab at the Gaîté Lyrique (May 2014). Live, MWTE tends to keep away from the electro show caricature : with bass, guitars, vocals and various effects the band plays at the center of the audience, a proximity that favours the immersion into an inner voyage.

The music itself is not simple to describe, as some have hastily labelled it : Chillwave ? Dream Pop ? Electronic Postrock ? It matters little as long as the the rhythm, the melodies and the finesse that emerges from their compositions carry us beyond, to an odyssey in which we find ourselves dancing... Inside.
