His music casts a delicate warmth that combines both digital and analogue elements to create a sound that has inspired many artists over the years. With „Yara“, one of his most important albums to date will now be made available on CD for the first time. With a completely reworked and remastered version, Marsen Jules fulfills his wish to release this gem from the backcatalogue of the internet-label Thinner in a way it will get the attention it deserves. On his follow-up to „Lazy Sunday Funerals“, Marsen Jules continues to work on his vision of blending other-worldly strings with fragile ambient sounds. The resulting compositions are reminiscent of the deep, atmospheric sounds of the „Pop Ambient“ compilations on KOMPAKT, but in their minimalistic approach also pay respect to experimental composers such as Steve Reich and Eric Satie. The source material for „Yara“ was the recording of a band from the circle of Marsen Jules’ friends. After listening to it repeatedly, the background noises of the concert that were recorded accidently became more and more important for him: the tuning of an instrument, the opening of a beer can, the laughter of someone from the audience. Emotional moments that transcend the music itself and capture the very atmosphere of the concert. These acoustic fragments were afterwards digitally re-edited in the sense of musique concrète and then put together again to create a texture of elegant ambient sounds. The result is a highly personal sonic web of modulated loops and permanent tempo variations that influenced many musicians in their creative output. The re-mastered version of „Yara“ now impresses with an even richer, more complex sound than the original. In addition to that, US-designer Noah McDonald, who already worked for artists such as Funkstörung and Speedy J., provided the cover-artwork for the CD. http://myx2u.com/krillminima/nautica.html 2009-03-31 13:22:05 A332 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/urlaub_auf_balkonien.html 2009-03-31 13:18:03 A328 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/golden.html 2009-03-31 13:23:16 A333 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/les_fleurs.html 2009-03-19 11:42:19 A327 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/herbstlaub.html 2009-03-31 13:14:26 A325 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/borkenkaefer.html 2009-03-31 13:13:15 A324 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/radiodub_ep.html 2009-03-31 13:15:02 A326 http://myx2u.com/krillminima/zwischen_zwei_und_einer_sekunde.html 2009-03-31 13:03:30 A322
