Jonsson/Alter - Mod

The much anticipated album from Jonsson/Alter, the new project from Henrik Jonsson & Joel Alter, has finally arrived. With personality and grace Jonsson/Alter blend soul, atmosphere and space with heavenly monotone funk. Or as the artists put it: “This album just landed in our laps like the sand falls inside an hourglass, every note is a breath of air and each kick pumps like a woken heart.'' Tension is the key word to this album. The raw funk of bass lines and drum programming always grinds against the smooth and beautiful, almost sacral and poetic parts of the music. You can feel the work of two producers, two styles, two ideas, meeting and blending to create something new - a sound of their own. Sharp acid bass lines meets smooth church-bell pads. Dreamy monotone organ pads and deep human sighs meet the striving funk of daily life. Minimalistic but irresistibly funky drum programming jams together with a wild and constantly tweaked one-tone bass line. Very few sounds play efficiently in this amazingly dirty club tracks to cinematic and dusty house. Good times are what we are made for and this album will hopefully help you in pursuing that task.
