Genre
Jazz
The music of David Meier & Ramon Landolt plays with the transitory state of the present, the future and the past. Through the manipulation of perspective and the time horizon, the duo translate recording and field soundbites from urban areas into music which deals with the transition and transformation.

Starting with drums and synthesizer, extended with voice, sampling and live processing, the duo creates abstract spaces in which complex structures and rhythmic formations revolve around an occasionally invisible pulse.

On their new album «Territory» (WideEarRecords, 2022) seemingly electronic earthy percussion sounds meet up with synthetically-generated raindrop sounds and via improvisation strategies are mixed into an organic entity, such as in e.g. «Texture / Slightly Elevated».

Whilst «At Home in the Green» relates the constant desire of city dwellers for nature – even when it’s only in their front garden – «But Beyond the Ordinary» deals with the microscopic fragments of the striving for upgrade. The track «Intentions» decodes advertising slogans from the international property market and thus delivers an ironic twist on the reality of the 21st century. The album’s concept and some tracks were inspired and developed in collaboration with the experimental architecture office «Rotative Studio».
