go visit audiobulb for some more regular information and support David, not just because he's a really decent chap, but also because audiobulb puts out some of the most amazing artists in the last couple of years like hecanjog, calika, craque, ultre or jimmy behan.

the shooting was done by my father sometime in the 80s, the editing is done my me.

this is a complete exclusive release, which features more of my ambient side. the release on audiobulb will be a really great set of contemporary electronic music, split up in to 12 tracks of beat centric bliss, that blend with melodic sweetness and clicky crackling textures. something to listen to with high volume and some bits that really make a sunday evening with a headphone a hopefully great pleasure for you.

the record is called inscription and will be available sometime in june. i'm pretty sure audiobulb will keep you updated on this.
this is what the extended release promo sheet tells about this:


„Inscription“ is not only a collection of tracks nor is it a concept album – it’s a document of the life of one single person – filtered through the noise of the discourses that surround us and engrave themselves into us every day. It’s a witness to modern worklife in capitalism and it shows how much influence the ethics of work and work in itself have even in segments of our live, of which we think, that they are not genuinely work-related.

The rules of capitalism are completely written onto and into the bodies of everyone – so deeply, that they are inseperatly connected with each individual; that they made it their own nature.

So we spend our evenings working overtime, taking work back home, spending sleepless nights thinking through problems, which solutions won’t change the underlying structure at all – manifesting it even more. In these days were working as an artist mostly means giving away most of the day just to get through a dayjob in order to pay the bills, because the art won’t be able to do that, it’s apparent, that these precarious conditions will be reflected unconsciously within the work.
The 12 Tracks of „Inscription“ are a document of this operation.
Their restless structure shows how deeply the surrounding conditions are taking influence onto the artistic work and manifest themselves through it. The buried melodies, that never really manage to break through the surface and the high pace of the tracks, that doesn’t seem to rest for at least a brief moment hint to the permanent strife and chase for moments outside of this totality – a goal that won’t ever be achieved, because the circumstances have already gotten a part of us.

But at the same time, the record in itself offers a place of contemplentation and gives us at least a glimpse of a thought, that everything could be different. There is no need to fear or hope, but only to look for new weapons.

Yay nils!
Thanks. I'm really looking forward to this release. And I really do like the video.
I can say it again and again. I'm so glad audiobulb does this release. Because this label is something really special. And it is run by one of the em411 regulars who was there since I know this site like nearly 7 or 8 years ago.
This is lovely soft wet fuzzed out section of sunshine goodness. A gentle moment in an album that is defined by beautiful chords and textures underpinned by complex beats - technically and aesthetically excellent & recently compared to autechre in the Vital Weekly review section. Quality release Nils....
that review is really great. it's gonna be a great summer.
Wow. Congrats Nils! I am all over this release. I nq/Audiobulb.
wow! compared to autechre nils, that's cool.

can't wait to hear the entire thing. fantastic stuff.
dope!!! can not wait for this release!!!
