New Monolake album dropping September 6th on Imbalance Computer Music.

Techno visionary Robert Henke returns to his Monolake alias after 4 years on his Imbalance Computer Music label. An absolute masterclass in mind bending, cinematic sound design and world building electronica.

 

The latest Monolake album is an ode to the creative shelter that has given the Ableton software co-founder the space and grace to freely experiment over the years. The album has undergone countless variations and developments, reflected in tracks that morph and twist as they move along, like the twitching ‘Signals’, carbonated like soda and ecstatic in the sense of atoms whizzing and colliding into each other. ‘The Elders Disagree’ thrums with an earthen heartbeat anchoring scattered percussive details, while the fluctuating rhythms of ‘Cute Little Aliens’ stutter against the tidal push and pull of waves crashing and surging.

 

A refreshing update from one of the true masters in the field after nearly 30 years producing electronic music. It uses the full length album format to project listeners into an alternate dimension, rewarding repeated listens, close attention and HD audio reproduction equipment. To our ears this is one of the finest releases of 2024 so far.

 

Single "The Elders Disagree" only available on Bleep right now it seems. Good classic sounding track!
