Bleep

Thomas Fehlmann continues to work at a rate of knots as he drops his third full-length of 2018. However, 1929 - Das Jahr Babylon finds the veteran taking a left turn after the successes of Los Lagos and the Terrence Dixon collaboration We’ll Take It From Here. The music on this record was conceived for a documentary of the same name that chronicled the seismic impact of 1929 in the Weimar Republic. Fehlmann’s portentous ambiences - imagine a darkside Eno - set the scene perfectly and work equally well when presented as standalone works.
