In order to get lines of perspective moving, Aufgang transcend their instrumentarium. From this organic corpus, they manage to extract a hand-stitched, deeply human kind of music. This exhilarating craft builds bridges between disciplines, skilfully pulling together acoustics and electronics while making bold connections between different eras. Ancestral pianos are groovier than any sequencer, the synths they use are antediluvian and the drums are constantly oscillating between metal and skin. They may well be the first truly accomplished and unabashed explorers of the channel connecting various approaches which, so far, had at best only been piled up. Aufgang transcend the confines of time to bring the past back into the future. 180 gram double vinyl cut at 45 rpm - download code, A3 poster and embroidered shield (patch) included.

It is fuelled by a few
surprise turns, brought about by their exploratory work, as exemplified by the inclusion, here and there, of vocals.
Halfway between democracy and anarchy, this free system positions itself at the perfect point of equilibrium that is collective freedom. Their configuration calls for spontaneity, control and determination. And this is what enables them to reach beyond their confines, in a spirit of convergence and friendship.[info from label]
