With the release of his 10th compilation, Calming Park 4, Zurich-based
music designer and journalist Olivier Rohrbach marks with his most
romantic production to-date.
His previous works include boarding music and a CD for SWISS Airlines,
sound design for Bally, a Christmas album, a range of CDs for the Swedish
brand David design and the re-vamp of 1865Æs founded Reuge music-boxes for
whom he created the project Reuge Remixed in 2005 with contributors such
as SΘbastien Tellier, Ralph Myerz and Pit Baumgartner.
The sophisticated and high-demanding music taste of the thirty-something
music lover can also be heard in Calming Park. The 3 previous volumes were
released in Switzerland and in Austria. Boosted by international buzz,
Calming Park compilations turns into a must-have in fashionista scene.
This means that the collection was soon available at top spots such
Colette/Paris, 10 Corso Como/Milano, Net-a-Porter/London, David
design/Stockholm and DKNY/New York and was reviewed in Wallpaper*, Vogue,
Blues&Soul and ELLE Decoration UK.
ôEven when youÆve signed with a leading music company in the world,
international distribution might be a difficult issue when you takeoff
from tiny Switzerland .I worked on the ôbrandö Calming Park as if it were
a designerÆs item. Therefore, for me having the CDs on sale in the right
shops like the ones I mentioned before was a natural move to get Calming
Park reach the right peopleö, says Olivier Rohrbach.
This time the distribution abroad might be less collector-like, as Calming
Park has joined the force of label Phazz-a-delic for its release in
Germany, Austria and for export.
Like the previous volumes which include photographs by a-list lens such
Mikael Janson, Luis Sanchis and Takashi Homma, Calming Park 4 comes in a
beautiful digipak with astonishing views of Las Vegas by the Italian
photographer Roberto Ceccarelli. Why Vegas? ôbecause weÆre all looking for
kind of modern shelter and Vegas, with its fancy style that is today so
much copied, was probably the first city that materialized the idea of
unlimited entertainment and splendid isolation.ö And to accompany it in
music, the Swiss DJ with more than 40Æ000 albums sold to-date has created
a panorama of 18 tunes that will appeal to a large audience, from jazz to
electro, from lounge to atmospheric country pop, from romantic bossa nova
to futuristic chillout.
ôThis is Calming Park at his best and the result of more than a year of
musical research in order to create a perfect and eclectic musical oasisö,
admits Olivier Rohrbach, whose precision and patience recalls sometimes
the savoir-faire of Swiss watch-makers.
