Cat No MOLE0782

• Under their nom de plume “Alphawezen”, Ernst Wawra and his singing comrades Asu, Verena, Simone and Fred have already twice demonstrated their expertise in the weird and wonderful world of electro-apparatus. Their first two albums, “L'Après-Midi d'un Microphone” and “En Passant”, floated with somnambulistic lightness and poise over the fertile no-man’s land between the genres of trip-hop, house and electropop, hovering over the fine line between art and kitsch.

• On this third album Alphawezen takes us through the vast realm between experimentation and calculated effects, bringing us full circle to the first album.

• Since the days of the legendary band Kraftwerk, many have shown that machines can produce more than just rhythmically repetitive booming and thumping. But it wasn’t till Alphawezen’s musical experiments that we learned that polyphonically intertwined enunciations of their vitality have the melodic quality and complexity of 19th-century Italian arias.
