Aliens Project - Biker's Paradise

Artists: Aliens Project
P: 1999

This electronic Xperimental album is the mirror of my black biker soul. From the booklet: Oh no, this is certainly not "right" biker music as we know it from iconic rocker parties from the clubhouses. And as cuddly music or cuddly skirt you can not call that. But to fit in a certain drawer, that should not and will not be the goal of this album. At this point we would like to apologize, we are really sorry, if you hear the bass loudspeakers listening loudly, sorry. From the perspective of the composition here was trying to leave the beaten track and just do something different. What did he think? That was once again a really cool party. The last empty beer cans in the corner. Most bikers are already back on the road on the way home. Still. Only the campfire still glows quietly. Passed through three days. I stink and my long hair is totally glued. No jägi anymore. Completely fatigued still a cigarette, and calmly a last beer. It's Sunday afternoon. I'm the last one again, and my brothers are already waiting. The first, still cold V-Twins, are shivering and shivering, chugging reluctantly and not yet walking properly. I stand next to my baby, lovingly stroking my hand over the tank, and -It's gonna be ... one, two strong kick- slight coughing and farting. So again, three, four, five ... Suddenly like a scream, a loud short bang. Shaking and shaking Dreivierteltakt is in the air. The still damp ground from the morning dew shakes, the air vibrates. We roll slowly from the square and are finally back on the road. Sonores thunder of the V-engines, and the hardest Brothers have a slight grin on their face.A sense of freedom, finally free, and around me is the dark side of power.What can be more beautiful? The air is fresh and green, sleepy cows turn lazily their heads.Einame highway, cool Ri dreaming with open eyes ... This is the music of a seasoned biker, who has impressed the impression of his rear sight deeply and permanently in various Harleysitze for over twenty years. Someone for whom "being a biker" is and remains the top priority in his life. A dirty, rough guy, as dirty, rough and lovable as his music. made on earth, for all my big bad brothers around the world.

Aliens Project - Drop Out

Artists: Aliens Project
P: 2001

The various elements of electro, hip-hop and industrial up to rock jazz were merged into a new unit on this CD. The album captivates with its many unusual sounds and moods, the vocal passages have been deeply embedded in the sound design and the deliberate renunciation of the total monocompatibility opens up completely new sound worlds for the stereo listener. Our society today is characterized by superficiality and improvisation and this music sees itself as a mirror of our time. It was neither perfect nor smooth, but produced with a lot of fun and love. The computers were deprived of any power, they were only to serve as helping crutches, because the human touch should be maintained in any case.

Aliens Project - Zero Gravity

Artists: Aliens Project
P: 2011

Equipped with synthesizers and the wildest equipment, "Zero Gravity" rather serves the social conditioning on the subject of "alien" with as versatile instrumentation as possible, instead of creating a very own universe. Diverse Wupp-Wupp sounds and otherwise trimmed samples seem familiar to anyone who has seen episodes of Twilight Zone or X-Files here and there. This kind of thing can quickly seem cheesy, but the sound-tinker works against it with almost inexhaustible experimentalism. It seems that everything has found room on "Zero Gravity", which somehow creates interesting sounds. That makes the matter shine colorfully and invites to the lively guesswork, which sound was created as or what electronic origin and what was improvised with the micro. However, before a shallow soundcheck comes out of it, Land throws in his sparkling, booming and buzzing Soundscape sessions again and again song structures that brings the kingdom of ingredients in a coherent order. The drum kit is first used on "Time Goes Bye", but only "Lil 'Moon Farter" adds something like a motif to the rhythm. Nevertheless, the story always likes to dodge in ambient landscapes, making machines hum, talking robot voices and buzzing equipment. In addition, the beats change permanently, from jungle to industrial to pop everything is there.

Aliens Project vs. Programmierte Welten - Kamerun-da Chillaz

Artists: Aliens Project
P: 2006

Kamerun da chillaz "is, after" TheReMinator "the second album of the joint live project of "ALIENS-PROJECT vs. PROGRAMMED WORLDS"
These live recordings document the music of the events from 2003 to 2005, recorded in various underground clubs in Germany's cities. "Kamerun-da chillaz" is sometimes quite chilled and not as hard as the first live project. The CD is also the culmination of a multi-year collaboration on stage. 
The history.
The Gallusviertel is a district of Frankfurt am Main and extends from the central station to Griesheim and the Rebstockgelände to the Gutleutviertel. Since the turn of the century around 1900, the whole Gallus is popularly referred to as "Cameroon".  Two musicians commemorate their roots together ... Cameroon is much more than a mere reminder of a period of life. It is a symbol that permanently shapes people, a journey to the simple. You do not just live "just like that" in Frankfurt Cameroon, but rather you become part of it.
Welcome to Cameroon, MOVE YOUR ASS TO THE BEATS!

Bernd-Michael Land + H.D. Schmidt - 99 Temples

Artist: Bernd-Michael Land & Hans-Dieter Schmidt
P: 2023

In many cultures, the temple is the central building and characterizes a settlement. In addition to the religious significance of the temple, it is also a place of contemplation and meditation. For Europeans, the Japanese temples with their rock gardens are mystical places that hold many secrets. In their program "The Pilgrim of the mysterious 99 Temples", Bernd-Michael Land and Hans-Dieter Schmidt want to take you into this unknown world. With gongs, singing bowls, bamboo flutes and electronics, sound worlds are created that alternate between world and ambient music and open up unknown musical spaces. This music should encourage you to slow down, in the spirit of Land's last album "Slowing world".

Bernd-Michael Land - Das Lächeln der Bäume No. 5 Definitivum

Artist: Bernd-Michael Land
P: 2020

4-page booklet, cover card + 28-page booklet enclosed in a slipcase.
Part 5 is definitive and is the final thesis for the multi-award-winning project.
Bernd-Michael Land conjures up unheard sounds from his huge synthesizer park again. There are new pieces on the subject of "The Trees' Smile", which he performed in various locations from 2011-2016. From the sound installations in discrete 4-4-4 quadrophony, the tracks were remixed in stereo and that gives the music a very good spatial depth. This can now also be heard in the additional pieces of the 5th part. Here you can hear from experimental new sounds to melodically catchy tracks a very varied music, which is a worthy conclusion of the 5-part CD series.

Bernd-Michael Land - Die Mondlandung 50th Anniversary

Artist: Bernd-Michael Land
P: 2019

Several generations of musicians were inspired by the first moon landing. The event had, and continues to have, wide influences throughout the art and culture scene around the world. The album "The Moon Landing" is an elementary and personal music. It should also have a particular temporal relation to the instruments used. For many, the sounds produced on the electronic path, valuable antique synthesizers were used. The compositions often form musical structure parallels to the beginnings of synthesizer music from the 70s and thus stand in the tradition of Bernd-Michael Land's own earlier works. The sound is ur-electronic and experimental. The well-known Apollo-11 radio messages and sounds from the NASA Sample Collection was deliberately omitted, which is up to others. Only music and sound should describe the experience of the moon landing. Supremely constructed step sequencers control the modular synthesizers. The rhythmic basic analogous patterns combine in an intermedial symbiosis with digital sound events, alienated field recordings and artifacts. Out of this transformation a new aesthetic illusion is formed. Electronic synthesizers and samplers are the most important medium for creativity and communication in all these creative processes. They represent the essential element in the production of music.

Bernd-Michael Land - Rodgau Field (2CD)

Artist: Bernd-Michael Land
P: 2021

Many listeners often want to have their drawers to classify the music and the term “electronic ambient music and field recording” would probably best describe this double album. By means of field recordings, Land has acoustically captured the sounds and noises from various locations in and around Rodgau and incorporated them into its electronic music. The whole city with its sound artifacts was applied as a sound instrument. The unheard of the unheard of: what does a cornfield sound like? Humans can no longer perceive acoustic events in the ultrasound range. Such noises were recorded with a special "bat scanner" so that the native bats would not be missing. Electromagnetic waves from power lines and lanterns have been captured using the gaussmeter and have also been implicated in music. From the calls of the rare red kite in the orchards, to the noises of the S-Bahn, to the knocking noises on containers, nothing has been left out. However, the Rodgau Culture Prize winner did not create an auditory collage that only consists of atonal noises. With electronic synthesizers, harmonic musical compositions were worked out in his Hainhausen music studio and sound laboratory, which combine in a new context with the sound sculptures to form meditative collages. This is how an acoustic portrait was created of the surroundings of the town of Rodgau.  A special highlight: the entire work has been laid out as a "cartographic composition". On the 28 pages in the detailed booklet of the CD, all coordinates of the field recordings are listed. The locations at which the photos were taken from the booklet can also be precisely localized by specifying the location markings. This allows the interested listener to visit the individual points interactively.

Bernd-Michael Land - Transmitter 594kHz

Artist: Bernd-Michael Land
P: 2017

BERND-MICHAEL LAND is an obvious admirer of the Berlin School and skillfully moves his music between ASH RA TEMPEL and TANGERINE DREAM or KLAUS SCHULZE and KRAFTWERK. But also a JEAN MICHEL JARRE is very close to him, as the entry into the album proves with "On Air", while "Nachtschleife" awakens memories of EDGAR FROESE's solo time and his 74-debut album "Aqua". The most complex and strangely playful, on the one hand like a D-Zug-rolling and on the other hand moving in the creative spirit of a MANUEL GÖTTSCHING moving "lattice tension" is on the album a very special highlight.
However, Land often gives all discernible influences on "Transmitter 594kHz" a much darker note and its electronics merge with many natural sounds. He himself speaks of a "new, hybrid reality in sound, space and time", where he combines his analog and digital synthesizers and sequencers with alienated nature sounds. An unimaginably symbiotic and at the same time wonderfully complementary union, which in addition, in a full, very voluminous sound filling room and with many effects enriched our speakers so much demanded. For the musical realization of "Transmitter 595kHz" BERND-MICHAEL LAND uses all synthesizers, sequencers and samplers of the former large broadcasting hall of the Hessischer Rundfunk, which he records in real time and without the use of any computer technology. Quite similar to how KLAUS SCHULZE practiced in his early years.
