RELEASE NOTES:
Dⁿsseldorf transplant via New York, this is TG Mauss'
(Torsten Mauss) second solo record, having previously
recorded as one half of the synth-pop electro duo
Tonetraeger together with Volker Bertelmann (Music A.M.,
Hauschka). Mauss' debut, Mechanical Eye was a melodious boat
trip, an acoustic calling card, and as was promised, the
captain has not retired: the fantastic voyage continues.
Gravity Will Keep Us All Together is not only the title of
his second album, but a statement: whereas modern physicists
still discuss whether gravity is all but a form of energy,
Mauss acts in the spirit of visionary inventor Nikola Tesla
and explores the universal force of music with his intuition
as a guide. His adventurous experiments with percussion and
guitar strings lead to the rediscovery of the common
cultural denominator: pop. Drifting away from the
constrictive worlds of minimal music towards his own
multicolored cosmology, Mauss surprises with a cocktail of
playful beat and Brit-pop melodies, stomping '80s disco and
hippiesque country. A talented parodist, he even catches the
dark mood of industrial without losing emotional warmth and
joie de vivre. TG Mauss gives his music the space to develop
and blossom, infecting listeners with a heartfelt happiness.
