SANKT OTTEN + MAJEURE SPLIT LP/CD



The Blade Runner Soundtrack from Vangelis, Kraftwerk, Klaus Schulze, Brian Eno? There's no doubt about the fact that both artists who take part in this collaboration record are influenced by that kind of sound.

MAJEURE - the solo project of ZOMBI's drummer A.E. Paterra - has already received a lot of attention via the 2009 debut release TIMESPAN (Temporary Residence Records) and a remix album released in 2010. “Timespan delivers inspiring sci-fi disco of the highest caliber. Anchored by Paterra's sturdy, propulsive live drums, each song uses layers of analogue synthesizers to masterfully craft extended compositions that virtually stop time before speeding it up, culminating in countless moments of genuine majesty."
The German duo SANKT OTTEN works together since 1999. They have released 4 albums and several eps + singles so far. They have firstly gained a wider attention in Germany with their debut “EINE KLEINE TRAURIGKEIT” released 1999 via the back in the days very well known label ELEGANZ - the press loved it. In the following years, they did two more albums and several smaller releases via different labels. In 2009 they joined DENOVALI RECORDS to release the 4th full length “MORGEN WIEDER LUSTIG” which firstly created an international interest in their soundscapes. Their musical spectrum has evolved once again, while retaining the undeniable hallmarks: atmosphere, melodic dexterity and depth. “MORGEN WIEDER LUSTIG” is the holy alliance with the virtual sound surface. Menacing but not mean. The silence before the storm and the silence afterwards.

In early 2010 fortunately both projects decided to record and release a completely new full length together. And after listening to the record, you hopefully agree that more artists with these talents should team up for collaboration releases. With “Moonbow”, MAJEURE contributes a well fitting and rather positive sounding introduction to the record, followed by the beat orientated masterpiece “The Traveler” and a more depressive horror sounding “Aleph Institute”. TIMESPAN was described as “totally stompin' analogue synth heaven” - “The Traveler” brings this impression to perfection. “Aleph Institute” on the other hand follows the way Paterra already evolved with ZOMBI - a long depressive hypnotic journey. With the 10 minutes track “Es ist nicht alles Gold was glänzt” and with “Ich beantrage die Unsterblichkeit” SANKT OTTEN mix their own well known sophisticated spherical sound with a more ZOMBI like drumming and atmosphere. The result: they chip in two songs which easily hop into the top three of the best songs they have ever written - “Es ist nicht alles Gold was glänzt” is maybe the best one they ever did since the beginning in 1999. Track 4 “Mit offenen Augen” and 5 “Der Sonne entgegen” rather tie in with the “MORGEN WIEDER LUSTIG” album sound and retain the quality of album number four.

The Cd version offers the bonus track “Höhere gewalt” by “Sankt Majeure”. Both artists created different parts and assembled them to a 4:19 track which would have been a perfect addition to the mentioned Blade Runner Soundtrack from VANGELIS.

Essential for fans of STEVE MOORE, ZOMBI, KRAFTWERK

HEAVEN IN HER ARMS - PARASELENE 2xLP/CD







Some people in the past have called the likeable Japanese guys in HEAVEN IN HER ARMS the younger brother of ENVY or a really good “rip-off” of ENVY's masterpieces ”All The Footprints You've Ever Left…” and “A Dead Sinking Story”. Descriptions like “excellent Japanese screamo fused with ideas of progressive hardcore” and “massively bombastic emotional hardcore with extreme vocals” were established in the underground music scene as well.
In 2010, after one full length, several demos, a lot of split releases + eps and hundreds of hours of songwriting work, they're now finally back with the 2nd full length named “PARASELENE”. It's necessary to say that, if HEAVEN IN HER ARMS ever was the younger brother of ENVY, this brother now finally left the family to walk his own, independent, and autonomous path. With “PARASELENE”, HEAVEN IN HER ARMS have created their own sophisticated soundscape and a new mixture of a massive wall of sound on the one hand, and intelligent, calm, and atmospheric parts on the other hand. That's surely something you've read in a lot of reviews before - but HEAVEN IN HER ARMS are one of the few bands which can initiate a new unique and mystical atmosphere if you even try to get into their music. Surely, the extreme vocals and the very long atmospheric parts in some songs are not something for every listener - but today, where terms like “hardcore”, “screamo”, or whatever have rather become promotion tools and definitely nothing but meaningless words, it's refreshing that there are some bands that don't try to become the next big thing - HEAVEN IN HER ARMS first and foremost play the music for themselves.
Five of the eight songs are longer than six minutes - three even longer than nine minutes. So the main achievement of this record is definitely that HEAVEN IN HER ARMS have written a record with very very long songs which never bore you if you invest the will to understand their music and the meaning behind the lyrics. Especially in the times of downloading where it seems to be important to just get the big one hit of one band on your Mp3 player it's good to see that there are still people around who care about the full length format - and you can only understand this record if you regard it as a whole entity. Additionally, if you're patient and attentive enough, they reward you with two absolutely excellent masterpieces at the end of the album. The string and piano composition in the last song are an absolute highlight which centralizes the strength of the complete record.
A funny note at the end: the older brother ENVY loves his younger one HEAVEN IN HER ARMS and his music so much - he will bring him back to the family and will release his music on ENVY's own label SONZAI RECORDS in Japan. In the remainder of the world the two good old uncles from DENOVALI RECORDS will take care of the band and their releases.
