Christian L÷ffler has this magic touch to whatever he does, both as an audio and
visual artist. The clarity and intensity of his work, in addition to the
analogue warmth that his music contains, is unmatched. Played back loud, this
seemingly calm EP turns into a dense club stormer, of the most explosive and
unexpected kind. Hurray, an EP & an artist perfect for the c.sides imprint!!!
The 'Raise EP' opens with 'Cord', containing L÷fflerÆs deep round signature
sound, bringing up a pumping deep bass with an elevating exalting slightly
broken analogue polyphonic synthesizers, a pad intertwined with a warm hiss and
hum, extending between melancholic and exhilarated, full and thriving, moving
and utopic. A track that will take you by the hand with a warm, tight grip until
the very last second.
'Glare', a track soft as a floating feather yet repetitive and hypnotic, harbors
an untouchable resonance, beautiful chords, melody miniatures, a bouncing bass
drum and percussion work that simply defies gravity.
'Raise', the EP's shining star is more of a shooting meteor, lighting up the
sky. It's the sound of coming home, a familiar melody like a childhood memory
stirring deep emotions of unforgettable moments: wind blowing in the hair,
running under the moonlight, falling into a star sprinkled sky. But don't be
mislead: this track is a prime-time rave monster- but not one of the obvious
kinds... just the way they like it at c.sides!
The EP closes with 'Core', an ambient miniature, which like its title, digs
deeper and deeper into the center, into the depths of the nucleus, until
reaching the essence of the heart. Every good EP should make you cry with its
last track.
