Pillowdiver: disco di debutto |
PILLOWDIVER - Sleeping Pills CD 12K 1054 http://www.12k.com http://www.myspace.com/pillowdiver
Sleeping Pills is the debut release from Germany's Pillowdiver, whose concepts of simplification and minimalism led him to self-imposed limitations for the creation of this work. Utilizing primarily a Fender Jazzmaster, with a small amount of synthesizer and field recording, Pillowdiver took advantage of very lo-fi and modest mediums such as 4-track cassette and various guitar stomp boxes.
Appropriate to its title, Sleeping Pills is a dark and dreamy album of often-melancholic, post-rock influenced ambience. Most tracks rely on a bed of one or two simple loops over which guitar melodies, incidental sounds and harmonies are overlaid, enveloping the listener in a sleepy din of tape distortions and warm noise.
Sometimes about dreaming, sometimes about escaping, Pillowdiver's focused approach is a unique voice among artists who tread the fine line between experimentalism and indie rock.
RENE MARGRAFF (b. 1975) lives in Berlin, works for a well-known music software company and plays guitar. He started Pillowdiver in 2008.
