If you don't understand why I would love this, then you probably don't understand me at all.
Pantha du Prince, the Berlin electronic-music producer Hendrik Weber, said that “Spending so much time in front of the computer and working with electronic machines started feeling a bit bleak to me.” In a press release, he declared that “I wanted to find a way to spend more time outdoors and to legitimize it with art.”
The result is a new album, Conference of Trees, recorded, in part, using wooden instruments that Weber made himself. The record includes contributions from a trio of German percussionists and jazz musician Friedrich Paravicini.
Interestingly, despite the digital-to-analog shift, the homemade instrumentation, and the new players, the first single, Pius in Tacet, sounds remarkably consistent with previous Pantha du Prince recordings.
