Collaborating with a 16-voice choir Von Oswald delves into the interplay between the human voice and electronic synthesis.\nhttps://www.theransomnote.com/music/premiere-moritz-von-oswald-luminoso-tresor/\n\nIn the realm of Moritz Van Oswald\u2019s delight,\nLuminoso at Tresor, a surreal flight,\nTwinkling stars in the techno night,\nWhere beats and dreams take their curious height.\n\nElectronic wizard, with a hat so tall,\nHis tunes enchant, and the walls do crawl,\nThrough the dancefloor, we heed the call,\nLuminoso\u2019s magic, we surrender to all.\n\nIn the land of nonsense, we find our way,\nWhere melodies and rhythms start to sway,\nMoritz Van Oswald leads the play,\nIn Luminoso\u2019s world, we\u2019ll forever stay.\n \n\nMoritz von Oswald\u2019s album \u201cSilencio\u201d due out on Tresor Records, November 10th, 2023, is an exploration of the differences and similarities between human and artificial sound.\n\nCollaborating with a 16-voice choir he delves into the space between these sounds, drawing inspiration from composers like Edgard Var\xe8se, Gy\xf6rgy Ligeti, and Iannis Xenakis. Combining elements of repetition and reduction, reminiscent of techno and minimalism it showcases the interplay between the human voice and electronic synthesis.\n\nThe compositions for \u201cSilencio\u201d were created using classic synthesizers in von Oswald\u2019s Berlin studio and then transcribed for the choir by Finnish composer Jarkko Riihim\xe4ki.\n\nOut Nov 10.
