Release Notes:
Moony, compelling melodies, a gentle, velvety, soulful voice from
Sweden and inserted unobtrusive pieces of Drum┤n┤Bass, results in
LAINE┤s non-categorical melange.
The outcome of the harmonious symbiosis from electronics, jazz and
pop results in more than the sum of their individual parts.
Kristina LINDBERG┤s goose skin producing voice and the cautious
rhythmic sound network are hypnotic and force you to listen
consistently to the ten well-elaborated songs.
The Austrian-Swedish formation exists since the year 2001, formed
by the Austrian producers Clemens and Stefan PICHLER as well as
the Swedish singer Kristina LINDBERG.
Christian WENDT, an upright-bass player, did not only affect the
band structure, together they developed a new reduced and open
sound, which soon became the unmistakable brand name of LAINE. A
sound that allows space, which can emerge over and anon and also
lets us discover some new facets in the sound universe of LAINE.
Kristina LINDBERG, Clemens and Stefan PICHLER were all strongly
affected in their musical socialisation by jazz, which is
noticeable in a unpretentious way. After listening you will hear
that pop as well as electronic music have affected their sound
identity. Here you notice that the tracks are not ever lasting
loops that keep repeating themselves, rather fascinating and even
slightly structured compositions.
Music for people, who expect more than a steaming freestyle-mix
that begins somewhere and nowhere expires - an affair of the
heart!
Laine
Live and work in Linz / Austria.
7 years ago Kristina LINDBERG left Sweden and arrived in Austria.
At this time she did not know that she could sing, and now she
also speaks perfect German.
Her interest for music certainly comes from her father, who was an
inspired jazz pianist in the sixties. Always on the search for
beautiful female voices, the producers Clemens and Stefan PICHLER
based in Linz/Austria discover Kristina┤s talent. In next to no
time they find their way in their home studio which soon serves to
become Kristina┤s second home. Here they work with electronic
sounds and it was that tendentious soft, warm and organic sound,
which touched her.
At this point the producers Michael and Peter HORNEK join the
crew. Close to the matter and with a keen sense of her potential
they become important musical companions.
The first results where released on the TRES:CIEL Sampler Volume 1
in the year 2002. Two years later LAINE presents 11 tracks
gathered on their first album Deep Down Low (2004, Scream
Records/Ixthuluh). The firstling moves itself between Downbeat,
Trip Hop and Drum ┤n┤ bass.
The next 18 months, after several live acts, LAINE reforms itself
again: Clemens PICHLER places the bass guitar to the side and
exchanges it with a sampling station. The e-guitar is replaced by
acoustic guitar sounds and Kristina sings more often in Swedish.
The new acquisition, Christian WENDT a young upright-bass player
underlines the current development. Leaving the studio sound
behind, aiming for a jamming sound with a jazzy note.
As the first result the new record LONG LOST FEELING enters the
market in March 2006, recorded live at the Amann Studios/Vienna.
LAINE┤s third longplayer entitled s?nt ? livet will be released on
Etage Noir Recordings in spring 2007.
