Hainbach has dedicated much of his career to exploring rare and hard to find instruments, synthesisers and electronic equipment - bringing them back to the forefront of modern electronic production. After repurposing disused nuclear research equipment, and the early 60s Syn-Ket synthesiser in 2023, he turns his sights to an even earlier feat of engineering. His eighth release for Seil Records, Breve focuses on the Ondioline, a proto-synthesiser instrument created by Georges Jenny in 1939 and continuously developed until his death in 1975, and it's a marvellous merging of electronic eras.
The Ondioline has a storied history, used by the likes of composers Darius Milhaud and Angelo Badalamenti as well as Motown Records artists at the turn of the 60s. Its first enthusiast was Jean-Jacques Perrey, whose friendship with Wally de Backer AKA Gotye led to the instrument's 21st century revival. De Backer lent Hainbach an Ondioline, and rather than make a solo Ondioline album, Hainbach incorporated it into his rich analogue setup, where it shows off its true powers not just solitarily but interacting with other sounds in a celebration of voltage. As such, Breve is a powerful example of how even the earliest of devices can be used for innovative, contemporary compositions.
‘Sonores’ creeps in patiently and reliably, teasing out the Ondioline's range in ghostly, wispy swells and a resonant fullness, but getting further into the album reveals its talents: ‘Brushstrokes’ pulsates and revolves with percussive melodies in a sci-fi sense of drive, as echoing toy piano plucks add a delicately eerie quality. From here, the Ondioline and its partners are locked in a ballet of buzzes and zaps, deep bellowing thrums and sizzling saws, giving the impression of an ensemble of tesla coils singing in unison.
Hainbach turns the early 40s Ondioline inside out on Breve, a graceful showcase of pure vibrational electricity.
