2017 gründete Matthias sein Plattenlabel Superluminal, benannt nach der astronomischen Bewegung, die Jacobus Kapteyn 1902 im Auswurf der 1901 explodierten Nova GK Persei beobachtete. Seine Entdeckung wurde in der deutschen Zeitschrift Astronomische Nachrichten veröffentlicht und von englischsprachigen Astronomen erst viele Jahrzehnte später beachtet. Er scheint sich schneller als das Licht fortzubewegen, und seine Existenz könnte die unerklärlichsten Geheimnisse unseres Universums verbergen, aus denen viele der Geheimnisse der Mystik und Esoterik entstanden sind.
Sales Information:
In 2017, Matthias launched his record label named Superluminal, after the astronomic motion observed in 1902 by Jacobus Kapteyn in the ejecta of the nova GK Persei, which had exploded in 1901. His discovery was published in the German journal Astronomische Nachrichten, and received little attention from English-speaking astronomers until many decades later. It appears to travel faster than light, its existence could conceal the most inexplicable mysteries of our universe which gave birth to many of the secrets hidden in the path of mysticism and esotericism.
The label celebrates its 8th Anniversary with Matthias’s first self-released album. The instalment pays homage to the roots and influences the artist has genuinely embraced throughout the years. An immersive composition which summons a line from the sounds of the past to the present, designed meticulously and displayed within gatefold cover.
It certainly manifests a polyhedral vein with some very cerebral, experimental songs among more dancefloor oriented music. The artist delves into a self exploratory leap of synth-driving notes, striking chords of late decaying dub pianos. Certainly a journey that pairs conceptual alignment with more clubby-essential, stripped-down recordings.
The song’s progression evokes atmospheres from the far out worlds, carved into a space-echoing psychedelic trip with sinister tribal-percussive rhythm. The song’s arrangements are simple-complex drum’s versatile patterns, forged and elegantly blended into cinematic soundscapes.
This is a one way ride to the forest of mysteries, from which, there is no return. The time of the day between dusk and night, when it gets dark.
