PREMIERE | Emika & Paul Frick - Raining Parallel (CNCPT Rework) [Improvisations X Inspirations] by 432Hz Social Club published on 2020-12-17T14:38:59Z Artist: https://soundcloud.com/emika_official, https://soundcloud.com/paul-frick. https://soundcloud.com/cncptfnc Title: Raining Parallel (Rework) Format: Digital Label: https://soundcloud.com/impxins Release date: 18/12/20 Purchase: https://impxins.bandcamp.com/album/in-parallel Emika & Paul Frick collaborate and make magical music from synths that play themselves (Emika) and extended piano layers (Paul Frick). Emika began her explorations with programming synths to play on their own earlier in 2020 and released an album of these solo pieces (Chaos Star). Very much into the flow of synths playing in her studio all day long while she played with her daughter and drank endless cups of coffee, she decided to capture some midi files and send them over to Paul. A match made in heaven, Paul began to record his signature edgy piano layers, bringing glitchy rhythms and bass tones to the mix. The fact that Paul recently started to work with the Versio Duo glockenspiel robot, manifested as well on the record: metal, felt, mechanical spin-offs. Their music feels like rainbow drops, raining colour, light bouncing from crystal gemstones. Reminiscent of Erik Satie, Laruie Anderson, with a melodic glitchy nod to Aphex Twin. The music is deeply rewarding for the spirit, softly tickling our imaginations, caressing new ideas into fruition. It’s a great record to both wake up to and reflect under the moonlight. They have both been around long enough to know precisely what music with meaning feels like and exactly what to avoid. Their direct no bullshit approach to music production and the music biz, puts their creativity into a powerful position, they are original and this is music that channels some seriously beautiful light. CNCPT is a highly talented drummer in the acoustic world and he brings all of this knowledge over when it comes to building Techno and working electronically. His reworks of the pieces made by Emika & Paul Frick bring their ambient rhythms into strong beat driven tracks that bring depth and mystery into the mix. CNCPT brings the Berlin experimental Techno vibes, adding even more unusual night-time synth patterns into the originals, turning them into what they perhaps should have always been (if Emika & Paul Frick weren’t so in love with sound art and less concerned with club music). A perfect match. A very satisfying A & B realisation.
