Album Info
Within the electronic music scene, JENS-UWE BEYER's new album SURROUNDED BY WEATHER is considered a flamboyant sound experience. It is an impressive combination of traditional instruments, song structures and Techno tools. Reference points may be located between House-not-House (2012, Love), Avant-Pop (Touch, ID Cart, The Smallest Part) and a new feeling for Krautrock or Glam Pop - once created by "La Düsseldorf" - with tendency toward experimental, rather improvised compositions on the one side, and extended, instrumental and monotonous dance-floor tracks on the other side. A very personal touch is added by using his own, pure and non-processed voice or vocals thus creating, supporting, accompanying and representing the different moods of the album. JENS-UWE BEYER started working on this new album immediately after his debut album WHITE ALBUM in 2007. First, he created rough demo versions which he later refined and elaborated in the legendary former EMI studio in Cologne. The album starts with the track 2012 and wonderful vocal harmonies à la "Beach Boys" or "Rufus Wainwright" - and later turns into a deep dancefloor track with a cosy house beat and deep, disharmonic strings. The track TOUCH is the first single release taken from the album (incl. remixes made by "The Field" and "Tennishero") and represents probably the most intense tendency toward Pop music with its soft guitar sounds, a laid-back beat and a vocal hook line. The kick drum sound of ID CARD refers to almost 10 years of Cologne Techno history. Its 4-to-the-floor rhythm structure is delicately embraced by an airy pop arrangement and vocals. THE MOVEMENT starts like an ambient track, spiced here and there with guitar sounds and bass sequences until the beat slowly starts to support the track's dramaturgy. THE SMALLEST PART offers elegiac and transcendental moments: Everything the eye cannot see and the ear cannot hear can be found in this track. LOVE is soft and easy, personal and lofty. The album ends with STORM and FEMBERG and its open identity. Maybe SURROUNDED BY WEATHER is the perfect combination of 70s Kraut-Glam and 90s Techno feeling and will make both shining bright again!
