Erren – Fleissig – Schöttler – Steffen – Mosselbank

Digital file, Private Release, 2016

The outcome on this album was created by Jörg Erren, Bert Fleißig, Jochen Schöttler and Christian Steffen during jam sessions and lots of improvising while staying at a holiday lot in Ouddorp, Zeeland, in 2016.

Same as “Tidal Shift”, the music (split in Part 1-VIII) deviates quite a bit from ‘70’s classic electronic music: it feels more tactile most of the time while evolving and shifting at a slow pace as we wander through alternate, slightly psychedelic-ish and rather peculiar illuminated realities. I imagine it gives a nice voice to and interpretation of the nearby aquatic environment and its microbic sea life in particular. Sequenced parts show up in particular in the second half of the 48-minute release, such as on the bit more spiced “Part III”, “IV” and “VII” along a few gentle melodic lines on “Part V”. Expect Berlin School-ish stuff getting the EFFS treatment.

Note: Those interested in obtaining a copy of this release -I used an unofficial cover for this review created by my trusted friend Dan – should contact Jörg Erren through the YouTube channel listed below.
