▓█ █▓░█ █░▓█ █▓
█ █▓░█ de/vision are a band who require no introduction to █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ the pop music audience. after all, this electro duo █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ has been among the leading representatives of its █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ genre for almost twenty years and has always █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ nonchalantly succeeded in reinventing itself during █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ that time, exploring the limitations of its full █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ potential and filling the much-abused term of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ "crossover" with exciting new contents. that a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ previously established band structure may fall apart █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ in the process of these frequently daring █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ experimental phases must unfortunately be considered █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ one of the imponderabilities of an eventful █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ biography. █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ this kind of break hit de/vision at the turn of the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ millennium, having produced successful, extremely █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ likable synth pop music that had attracted the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ attention of major label wea, who went on to release █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ two albums, "monosex" and "void", which laid the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ band's sonic range wide open at the end of the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ nineties. suddenly guitars were no longer frowned █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ upon by purist electro heads, and a lot of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ experimentation went on in the wide field of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ electronic means of expression. this rejuvenation █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ process, however, turned into a tightrope walk that █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ founder member markus was no longer prepared to be a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ part of. he left the group, while thomas and steffen █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ not only moved on to the "big" independent label, █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ drakkar, but also returned to their old strengths █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ with their 2001 release, "two". █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ in the meantime, de/vision have found their course █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ again without losing sight of their feel for new █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ sounds and experimentation. their constant █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ open-mindedness towards new influences and forms of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ expression is without doubt one of the fundamental █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ factors in the recipe for success of a band who has █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ gone on to produce on albums such as "devolution" █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ (2003), "6 feet underground" (2004) and "subkutan" █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ (2005) a wide range of exceptionally gifted pop █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ anthems, most of which resurfaced on last year's █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ "best of à". that album also included the exclusive █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ "love will find a way", recorded specifically for the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ compilation and thomas and steffen's first real █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ compositional collaboration with their █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ much-appreciated production team consisting of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ schumann & bach; which worked so well that the new █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ album, featuring the interesting title "noob", was █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ recorded entirely by this tried and tested gang of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ four. this also explains the title, which steffen █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ borrowed from computer gaming jargon, where it is █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ used to describe a greenhorn gamer, or as a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ derogatory term for an experienced gamer who's made a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ beginner's mistake. "we're always looking for words █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ that people will hopefully find interesting, but that █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ on the other hand also relate to us," frontman █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ steffen explains. "noob was my idea because i surf █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ the internet a lot and sometimes get in involved in █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ role-playing games. to start off with, i liked the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ sound of the term without knowing what it actually █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ means; later i discovered as part of my research that █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ it's short for 'newbie'. we had just written and █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ produced the whole album for the first time together █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ with our producers, which was a totally new █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ experience. in this context, i found the term noob █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ pretty exciting and reinterpreted it for us." █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ so steffen, who had been de/vision's sole songwriter █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ since markus' departure, has been able to share some █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ of the responsibility, which on the one hand █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ liberated the compositional process and made it more █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ complicated on the other. the pleasing result of this █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ new working method is an album that sparkles with █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ lightly shimmering pop gems. songs such as "death of █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ me", "what you deserve", "living fast dying young", █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ the promo single "flavour of the week" or the new █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ version of "love will find a way" flow through the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ aural tract with invigorating lightness, de/vision █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ immersing themselves in melancholy dream worlds with █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ "see what i see", and above all this hovers a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ nostalgic retro feeling that brings to mind the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ band's musical roots. inspired by the cool remixes █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ that rotoskop contributed to the "best of à" release, █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ "noob" sees de/vision embark to some extent on a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ journey back to the eighties, a time of busy █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ experimentation in the resurrected electro scene, █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ merging pop, rock, funk, reggae, ambient etc. █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ elements. the unostentatious artwork featuring the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ noob neon logo can definitely be considered a █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ reminiscence of that pioneering era of electronic pop █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ music, yet at the same time de/vision have once again █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ succeeded on "noob" in insistently getting to the █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ heart of a number of brilliant tracks in a pleasantly █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ reduced style with modern as well as classical █░▓█ █
█ █▓░█ quotations. █░▓█ █
