Uwaga! Wydanie zawiera wersję CD!

Najnowszy album Console to po trochu melancholijna muzyka klubowa, głęboka elektronika, ambient i eksperymenty. Martin Gretschmann (aka cid Pauli), muzyk The Notwist, stworzył dość niepokojący, ale też ciepły, nowoczesny album, któremu wielkiego kolorytu dodaje wokal Miriam Osterrieder. Jest to już siódma płyta w dyskografii Console. W międzyczasie Gretschmann wspólpracował min. z Björk, Depeche Mode czy Barbarą Morgenstern.


Howdy! Four years after the last Console release “Mono” it’s time for some new vivid life signs of the famous Weilheim based collective. This time the new album titled “Herself” is a bit more of a solo attempt. Due to mastermind Martin Gretschmann’s always packed calendar it’s no surprise that first drafts of „Herself“ came to life on his laptop whilst on tour with The Notwist. The final recordings then took place in his studio together with singer Miriam Osterrieder and a bunch of electronic toys.
Martin Gretschmann can be called - in best sense - a creative factotum: The Notwist’s electronic wizard since 1997, as well as member of the allstar combo 13&God (a collaboration of The Notwist and the Anticon HipHoppers of Themselves). Under his alter ego Acid Pauli he does not only perform extraordinary club sets but – thinking of tracks like „Billy The Killy“ and „I See A Darkness“ – he also brought some humour onto the minimal dancefloor. “Anything goes“ – a maxim sometimes also showing up in his never ending eagerness to experiment, e.g. playing electronic music live on stage via Wii controllers. Over the years Console – in coop with Andreas Ammer - has also discovered another interesting playground: the radio play.
„Herself“ is not a born-and-bred ambient album, but bristles with bright pop appeal. Gretschmann, the alchemist, synth.......
