Alba

Alba with their first full 12'' release. The triumvirate of Roland Sebastian Faber, Keen K and Label Owner Michael Künzer is a team that has been delivering the goods on labels such as Clone, Das Drehmoment and Viewlexx. This first Alba release, created from three different cities, by three guys contains three tracks! Three is the magic number, DelaSoul once said!. Philomena 1 is a cosmic synth fuelled work. The track has the energy of Explorer alongside a warbling analogue line with some vocoder additions to boot. Another element is added to the mix when some Faber style space lands in the latter stage of the track. Philomena 2 sees a change in tone. This time the beats are lowered as a downtempo air arrives. Embedded in the analogue swirl and soft beats are gentle rising vocals. There is a electro boogie within the bars of this piece, but it is the electronic depth that rings true. The final instalment, Philomena 3 keeps the heavy synthesizer sound going. The track is a keyboard day dream, a medley of notes rising and falling with an epic Vangelis undertone running throughout. Warm female vocals cascade into the frame, with notes shifting within the synthesizer sphere of sound. Strong 12' that comes on heavy weight 180gr vinyl, great artwork and a limited run that will be gone as fast as the pervious Aube releases. a true gem!
