It almost took 4 years for Patric Catani to create 86 tracks for the game 'Alien Hominid Invasion' of San Diego based game company The Behemoth.
"As a life long game music collector who grew up with the Commodore 64 SID sound, and someone who digged deep in the rich universe of Nintendo, Sega and Atari games, I never stopped exploring the fun possibilities of contemporary, immersive game music production."
Patrice has dropped his new album '9'. So far, 2 singles have been released, which give a good insight into what we can expect on the longplayer. Patrice makes reggae music and sings partly in patois, although his music also contains jazz, soul, funk and hip-hop elements. He himself calls his style Jump-A-Delic.
We welcome Juli Gilde to Freibank. 21 year old and appeared on the Berlin scene a good two years ago. Within a very short time, dozens of seasoned musicians fell in love with her voice and her incredible songwriting talent, so that Juli has meanwhile written songs together with artists like Moritz Krämer, Paula Carolina and Francesco Wilking and played support for Jeremias or Element Of Crime.

We met in June, in summery Milan, with our partner Café Concerto at Quiet, please! Studios and wrote songs for 3 days. Our writers K.ZIA, Niklas Keiser (Razz) and Anton Krogmann teamed up with our Italian friends Massimiliano Pelan, Pier Vincenza Casati and Giuseppe D'Albenzio. In September, the second round was held in Berlin at Loftyard Studios, where Carina Madsius and BjarkeSørensen were also present besides our guest artists Patricie Kaňok Fuxová and Michal Jiráň of Vesna and Antonella Sgobio.

Less is more – the motto applies to Luxembourg's most intriguing newcomer Arthur Clees, whose approach is minimalist, rich, hypnotic. Clees is a young prodigy drummer / percussionist / vocalist with a multitude of performances and sessions under his belt. The 21-year-old musician manages to inspire very different people with his tracks. No Wonder: There's both depth and a tremendous upward pull at the same time.
In his debut album, "Stay, Temporary Home" influences from techno to electronica to the avant-garde are paired with a distinctive feeling for melodies and a signature treatment of percussion. Soul and R&B songs often appear as sonically distant yet emotionally close mirages. In addition, slightly altered vocals, hearty yet reductionist beats and a detuned piano reminiscent of your favourite aunt's Sunday cookies come in – a mixture that an incredible number of people can agree on at the moment.
'Off My Meds' took shape over two turbulent years in Jacob’s life. Several major life events happened back to back in a very short time, and it ended up breaking him down to a point of total exhaustion. The energy needed to uphold the outer self we all need to function was no longer there, and his inner actual beliefs and values began to show themselves one by one, which was not pretty to look at. Change was inevitable, simply because the price of not changing would be much higher in the long term.
Unlike past Föllakzoid records, that were done in single takes with the full band, their latest record 'V' took a month to construct out of more than 70 separate stems. Guitars, bass, drums, synthesizers, and vocals, were all recorded in isolation and producer Atom™, who was not present for recording, was then asked to re-organize the four sequences of stems without any length, structural restrictions or guidelines.
