Forgoing the need to play every single note live, this new album sees the pair juxtapose the old and new once again, venturing further into the electronic cosmos armed with a grand piano, self-built computer-controlled mechanics, and a new sense of latitude.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe debut single and title track from the album “All The Unknown” starts out with the clanging percussive piano figures that have danced across Grandbrothers’ previous terrain, but grows with the intensity of high-octane electronica to cast out allusions of classical romance, guided by emotive, cascading keys that collide with stuttering digital percussion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eListen closely to this latest record and you can hear an old-school hip-hop beat enmeshed in melodic piano, or feel the cold rush of techno fly past at lightning speed. Motifs of club music creep subtly into ‘All The Unknown’’s impeccably textured palette, which nonetheless uses sounds found exclusively within the piano. These sounds and samples are triggered and collected using mechanics built by Vogel and placed inside the piano, then extracted, processed and shaped beyond their original identity to create alien beeps, beats and tones. Melded these with the organic piano sounds is what fuels Grandbrothers’ creativity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e01 Howth\u003cbr\u003e02 What We See\u003cbr\u003e03 Umeboshi\u003cbr\u003e04 All The Unknown\u003cbr\u003e05 The Boat Paradox\u003cbr\u003e06 Four Rivers\u003cbr\u003e07 Shorelines\u003cbr\u003e08 Auberge\u003cbr\u003e09 Organism\u003cbr\u003e10 Silver\u003cbr\u003e11 Black Frost\u003cbr\u003e12 Unrest\u003cbr\u003e13 Mourning Express\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"City Slang","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57593749438795,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/6040\/3531\/files\/image_05cd087f-ba5d-49b3-bbdd-43f6e61c3fad.png?v=1781625469","url":"https:\/\/tonetoaster.myshopify.com\/products\/grandbrothers-all-the-unknown-black-2lp","provider":"Tonetoaster Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
