BIOGRAPHY
Jumpel began life in 2005 when Jo Dürbeck, formerly of the German band Bones,
began to write and record his own music.Prior to Bones, Jo’s formative musical
experiences involved playing with empty detergent cans, boxes and a piano in his
parents’ cellar. In 1986 he bought a Commodore C-64 computer and discovered
electronic music.
Jo played keyboards, samples and loops in Bones, who over the course of eight
years released three albums and seven singles with EMI Germany, and played
over 400 gigs in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. Then, after splitting up
the band, Jo and Rene (Bones’ singer) founded their own company and studio
and started writing and producing music for films. They wrote scores for numerous
films and ..aries, and won the award for Best Score at the Filmfestival
Valencia in 2006.
Despite its obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology,
Jumpel’s debut album Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach (released August 2007
through Hidden Shoal Recordings) is a work of intense intimacy and humanity.
The album serves as a testament to the power of careful distillation and
minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies its seemingly simple surface. Tracks were borne out of discrete nocturnal recording sessions where
ideas sparked from a range of disparate sources: an old drum machine, a radio announcement, a forgotten guitar chord. Through a process of layering and
weaving, the album began to take shape. Opaque electronic textures act like
sinew, binding themselves to piano and string melodies. The result is an album
that must be heard as a whole, yet seems to exist without a real beginning or end.

Professionelles Premastering ist heutzutage ein entscheidender Faktor für den Erfolg einer Musikproduktion. Viele Mastering Studios sind für den "Musiker im Alleingang" jedoch kaum bezahlbar. Silver Sound hingegen gibt selbstfinanzierten Künstlern die Möglichkeit, Mastering kostengünstig und auf höchstem Niveau in Anspruch zu nehmen. www.silversound.biz
