Ata ‘Sote’ Ebtekar bringt unter dem Titel “Majestic Noise Made in Beautiful Rotten Iran” ein neues Album heraus. Es enthält acht sehr unterschiedlich konzipierte, meist opulente, melodisch, im Verlauf veränderliche Tracks rein elektronischer Machart, auch wenn man gerade letzteres nicht immer vermuten mag. “Some pieces function as challengers of musical structural habits, provoking the short attention span culture, others present a problem-solution scenario, collectively via a neoteric noise aesthetic and detailed melodic weaving.”, heißt es beim Label. Das Album ist Peter Rehberg (Pita / Editions Mego) gewidmet und erscheint als CD und Download bei Sub Rosa.

“The making of this album was intentionally a very personal process, going into self therapy territory at times interpreting the composer’s contemplating mind dealing with tolerance, destruction, compassion, misery, grace and tyranny in an auditory manner. Some pieces function as challengers of musical structural habits, provoking the short attention span culture, others present a problem-solution scenario, collectively via a neoteric noise aesthetic and detailed melodic weaving. Ultimately, the objective was to engineer an assortment of works, awash with euphonic sound vivid in its essence, with a deep focus on various synthesis techniques within a compositional framework.” (Sub Rosa)
