DESCRIPTION
TONETRAEGER
This is not here

Label : Quatermass
Year : 2004
Format : CD
Style : Pop Rock
Availability : Out of stock


Description :German for bootleg, Bertelmann Volker and Mauss Torsten are two of the growing number of artists who refuse to see the difference between post-rock, folk, pop and electronica, combing all four into a peaceful, thoughtful and often instrumental form of music, already synonymous with labels such as Morr Music and Monika Enterprises. For their part, Tonetraeger mix it up more than most, sounding like a vibraphone-loaded Stereolab on opener 'Loveliness' before going on to dissect bubbling glitches on 'One Day Year' and coming on like a more folksy Velvet Underground on 'April Day.' The curiously titled 'Mona Lisa Overdrive' is one of the more mellow numbers, recalling the single-note guitar interplay of classic Chicago post-rock act Tortoise, although, even at their most subdued, Tonetraeger is a lot louder than Volker's other project, Music A.M.. Perhaps it was only a matter of time that musicians would turn their electronics away from creating the most non-worldly sound possible, and instead begin to develop new ways to craft vintage acoustic sounds in digital realms. Tonetraeger makes this a priority, although the '80s-influenced pop of closer, 'I'm OK' is kind enough not to leave you lost in a field at album's end.
