The German Hendrik Weber, ie Pantha Du Prince, are those aesthetes of electronic dance rather go operating small changes than opt for the great revolution. You see the option. It is in the crowded space of the house sounds or techno he was the one who was creating a particular sound through an angular electronic, atmospheric, falsely glacial, a building pending on and engaging.

Another musician and producer with new album also now released (the Swedish the Field) does the same. Each new album is introducing minor changes, but the structure of his music never dissipates. Listen Albums either one wants the other, it’s like returning to a home who know the songs, but with changes to the inner level

The last draft Hendrik Weber. – The album Elements of Light 2013 recorded as Pantha Du Prince & amp; The Bell Laboratory – was at that level until its most distinctive proposal, reflecting the passion for the sound of bells, a mixture of dynamics that both approached the techno and minimalism or jazz. In the new elements leverages this experience back to work with Bendik Kjeldsberg (Bell Laboratory), although this is a simple registration and emotional, recycling elements and acoustic sounds more like re-created by a band than by a type with laptop. Most of the themes are instrumental, with exceptions where the voice is pulled emphasis ( The winter hymn, Islands in the sky , In the open space ), approaching almost pop song structures. Most of the more than dance-inducing themes, create a cinematic universe, it is not by chance that Lion’s love – with French help Joakim – was inspired by the movie (1969) of Agnès Varda, while Frau im mond, sterne laufen , alludes to the Fritz Lang film. It’s a good album of synthetic and acoustic cues, with digital repetitive cadences, where the intimate dimension outweighs any technological celebration of longing. It’s like Hendrik Weber wanted to show that even though we live a time where there is an almost blind belief in technology, it is still and always in human relations that we rely on.
