Money – EP

Money macht happy

Photography: Michael Dürr / Design: flirtingdisaster

Was liegt in Zeiten wie diesen näher, als ein wenig Geld in Umlauf zu bringen? – Dies hat sich auch der Autor, Musiker und Konzeptkünstler Paul Divjak gedacht. Konkret hat sich die Kohle auf Vinyl materialisiert: attraktiv kommt sie als 180 Gramm schwere, krisensichere Club Edition daher. Mit Erdem Tunakan, Tapiresque, Hans Platzgumer, de:con, B.Fleischmann und I-Wolf – der als up-trend Produzent auch für den effektiven Money-Flow verantwortlich zeichnet – hat sich der Künstler für Money jede Menge Freunde aus der österreichischen Electronica- und Clubmusikszene an Bord dieses sexy Joint Ventures geholt. Fürs erfolgsoptimierte Mastering hat niemand geringerer als der Top-Soundmanager Patrick Pulsinger gesorgt.

Paul Divjak – Collected Releases

It’s simply unbelievable, that already 20 years passed since my first release “so fine” (7″) on sue.mi (Berlin/Prague). In the very same year, 2002, Hans Platzgumer, with whom I had the chance to collaborate on my first EP, mentioned Konkord Records, a young team of audiophile enthusiast from Vienna. I immediately got in contact with Wolfgang Reitter and the boys (back then they really were young) from “the friendly record label” from Vienna, and immediately learnt to appreciate their vast musical knowledge and the expertise. To cut a long story short: We did my first EP “A Glimmer of Hope” together in 2005. And ever since Konkord turned out to be my very trustful homebase for my musical concepts and releases. – I’m already pretty much looking forward to celebrating a “Best Off” at the occasion of our 20-years anniversary. Here’s to you, Konkorditos!***

A GLIMMER OF HOPE

Die Zukunft ist jetzt!

Elektronische Soundscapes, die in homöopathischer Dosis pulsieren. Ein Hoffnungschimmer, ein zartes Glimmern. Wiederholung und Differenz. Patterns und Plug Ins. Das, was akustisch Form annimmt, ist Musik vom Feinsten. Und klingt so als ob; Future Experimental Pop. Paul Divjak hat mit dem Produzenten Hans Platzgumer an seiner Seite das Schöne an der Elektronik auf den Punkt gebracht… Die Zukunft ist jetzt!

So fine / As if

7"

Cover art: Manuela Mitterhuber

The Western world has a brief history of ecstasy. Affected through and through by a belief system that triggered off the industrial revolution, achievement and pleasure were perceived as opposite poles of time spent. Work meant the construction of order. Pleasure meant indulgence in disarray. Formulated in more precise terms by Calvinism, such assumptions opened the world for the industrial revolution and the almost religious accumulation of wealth an property.

Also at the dawn of the revolution of the cultural industry, the same paradigms can be found. Freeing Rock´n´Roll from the indulgent disarray of darker and more intimate urges, over-achievers such as the Beatles would turn music into work. Manufacturing order in any possible aspect, intuition was replaced by multi-track recording and improvisation became theory. — mehr —

Bee Pop – Prologue

BEE-POP-A-LULA!

We have been fascinated by bees forever. But what did we really know about them? Ok, there’s the stuff with the birds and the bees, we all love the yummy syrup known as honey and fear the bee’s sting. (Since we have all made first-hand acquaintance with it back then, barefoot in childhood days.)

It was late autumn 2011 when we first came up with the idea of connecting more closely with the life of the honey bee. We wanted to do some research, collect sounds on location in and around the hives. The aim was to produce an entire album based on field recordings. — mehr —
