   About fennesz
"its most glimmering elements shining like sunlight through cracks in a wall, sharp as diamonds."


At the frontier of contemporary music is Fennesz: a meticulous laptop conceptualist who weaves tangible melodies and glowing guitars through dense, symphonic electronica.
Fennesz uses guitar and computer to create shimmering, swirling electronic sound of enormous range and complex musicality. "Imagine the electric guitar severed from cliche and all of its physical limitations, shaping a bold new musical language." - (City Newspaper, USA).

Christian Fennesz is know from his own particular musical world as well as his impeccable work in creating beautiful compositions for guitar. Somewhere between concrete music, classical and ambience sounds, he stretches musical resources and effects to create melodies and atmospheres that fuse classical and orchestral concepts with conceptual musical research and complex digital structures.
He has been recording and also performing with Ryuichi Sakamoto and playing live with Keith Rowe, Sparklehorse, Mike Patton and many others.
Fennesz has also worked alongside Peter Rehberg and Jim O'Rourke in the improvisional trio Fenn O'Berg, and with David Sylvian who sang on his album "Venice" and for whom Fennesz composed the music for the song "A Fire in the Forest" for Davd Sylvian album “Blemish”.


2007
Fennesz and Sakamoto released a collaborative album entitled “cendre”:
“Ryuichi Sakamoto and Christian Fennesz blend the unstructured and imaginative qualities of improvisation with the satisfying sculpture of composition. Sakamoto's piano, his style reminiscent of Debussy and Satie, perfectly complements Fennesz with his powerful blend of shimmering guitar and passionate electronics.”

Fennesz has done a 12 dates European tour together with Mike Patton, sharing the stage to do a “magic sonic duo” with unusual performance that is a hymn to radical creative freedom: electronic touches, krautrock landscapes, sampling, stormy drones, mellotron echoes, and mores…

Fennesz remixed the track “In This Twilight” on Nine Inch Nails remix album “Y34RZ3R0R3M1XED”.

Rolling Stone described him as "the most pictorial composer-programmer in laptop electronica".


Ben Bortwick (the wire 09/05): Fennesz guitar and laptop live set demonstrate why he remains one of the most engaging musicians using electronics. His treatment of the laptop and guitar allow each to give up its identity to the other, exquisite guitar washes loosing their specificity to the crackling textures of the laptop. Live guitar chords become loops on the laptop and he constantly shifts between contradictions and possibilities of each.

New release on FF HHH: Y.E.R.M.O. (Disincarnation)

Y.E.R.M.O is Yannick Franck and Xavier Dubois. The band is a Belgian drone duo from the sun. Their music is silence and sounds. It is the breath of the Sea ice.
Disincarnation is a call, a dream inside of a dream. Do you hear Dionysos fighting against the Giant? Do gods exists? Is there a place for real waves? Disincarnation is one possible answer.

Wow, bist du deppat; Problembär Records feiert diesen Samstag Geburtstag und alle haben sie sich zur konzertanten Gratulation angesagt. Alle, ja wirklich alle die momentan die Güte besitzen auf diesem kleinen Label ihre grosse Musik unters Volk zu bringen: Neuschnee, mob, der Nino aus Wien und Unding; also lauter klasse Burschen; Dj’s sind der Sheriff Melone und der Major Näse (auch nicht gerade finstere Gesellen)... wie ich immer sag: Spiel, Spass, Stars & Spannung sind garantiert!



Oder wie das beliebte Pop-Blatt „The Gap“ so schön schreibt:



„"Du Oasch" vom Nino aus Wien ist mit ziemlicher Sicherheit der subversive Nummer 1-Hit
des Jahres 2009 - das und das 2-jährige Jubiläum seines Labels Problembär Records sind
zwei von wahrscheinlich vielen guten Gründen, an diesem Abend im Rhiz zu feiern.“

Ps.: Nur an diesem Abend wird die neue Problembär-Compilation gratis aufliegen, vollgepackt mit exklusivem Material aller Problembär-Bands sowie einer Vielzahl befreundeter und im Umfeld tätiger Bands…

Tetrapolar — is one of the most significant record in discography of belarussian musician Vitaly Harmash, with what fans of intelligent and emotional electronic music enjoyed some years before official release.



He made a special release for Foundamental Network, having replayed and remastered album written  in 2003.
Enjoy this sincere music!

Our last mailout of 2009 consists of TWO free albums for you to enjoy...

[S27-031] PINKLOGIK - Learning To Trust Higher Frequencies : Remixed
(IDM, Electro, Ambient, Abstract, Psychedelic)


Hello all, this will be our final release of 2009, and a great way to end the year... Pinklogik asked 10 artists and friends to remix her entire "Learning To Trust Higher Frequencies" album and what an eclectic and stunningly produced work this is. Each track has its own feel, thanks to the diverse range of artists involved in the project. A shimmering journey through ambient colours, broken beats, sweet melodies, a little bit of quantum physics, and is one hell of a trip....

Also from S27...

[S27-030] MIN-Y-LLAN : Dark Days
(Downtempo, Ambient)

We are fast approaching the last days of 2009, so what better way to celebrate than this release from Welshman "Min-Y-Llan" who offers us this collection of atmospheric ambient pieces, the melodies within are dark and cavernous, being the perfect listening for the walk home on a frozen winters evening. Each track has a very melancholic feel as if looking towards a future that isn't as bright as we hope for, but nevertheless are powerless to escape.
Free download!

Thank you all for your support! See you in 2010...
