in the 17th century the alchemy tried in vain to produce gold artificially
from different precious metals and gases. however, this task seems to come
easy to the swiss producer and guitarist eric hunziker and his project
q-point - his alchemistic mixture of songs and instrumental tracks of
noble pop, groovy electro, warm trip-hop, jazz and d&b, enable his album
"nothing else" to glisten like a gold bar in the sunshine.
the discreet use of backward-loops and implicative guitar-bubbling
slumbers under the semi-smooth surface. the elements surprise the listener
over and over again and give "nothing else" a pleasant sub pressure. the
voice of new york singer yasmine meguid shines through the golden and
soulful nuances of the album. the songs on "nothing else" tell stories
about love, the strength of dreams and internal trips. you can listen to
"nothing else" in two different ways. you can take pleasure in the shining
surface or you can celebrate an easy day by diving and snorkelling
directly under the surface of the water through beautiful, gloomy coral
reefs. either let your soul be your pilot or discover your own feelings
and thoughts through the musical ride of q-point.
as well as his great songwriter's qualities, eric hunziker's guitar
playing skills arouse enthusiasm, supported by an extensive effect board.
the guitar moves elegantly and masterfully, as if flying through the
clouds. the musicians marius peyer (drums, percussion, additional
programming) and wolfgang zwiauer (bass) add to the banging, groovy tracks
of the album.
