about

Das Wort ELME geht aus der ungarischen Sprache hervor und bedeutet: Verstand.
Das Leipziger Ambient/Electronica Duo, bestehend aus Markus Rom & Sebastian Bode übersetzt es auf dem Debutalbum Shimmer so:

Organische Atmosphären erzeugen, Stimmungen, die dort wirken, wo der Verstand nichts zu suchen hat - im Gefühl. Wohlklingende Titel wie „Lim“, „Fern“ oder „Ada“ können als Andeutungen verstanden werden, die den Hörer*innen Raum bieten für eigene Bilder und Assoziationen. Basierend auf Ideen, die zunächst im Ping-Pong Verfahren (digital) entstanden, wurde im Anschluss gemeinsam (analog) nachbearbeitet.

So gestalteten sich während der intensiven und zeitlich bewusst begrenzten Studiophase die Arbeitstitel wie „Traurig Nr. 4“ oder „zuHause-Demo 3“ zu aussagekräftigen Gerüsten, die abbilden, worum es auf diesem Album geht - um ein Stück besondere Musik. Sieben Tracks aus Loopschleifen, Tapes, Cuts und Plattensamples suchten ihren Weg durch Modular-Strecken. Was teilweise verfremdet, diffus oder beklemmend klingt, öffnet sich später selbstsicher in einem feinsinnig klingenden Gewand. Das Recording schloss u.a. Piano, Streichersamples, analoge Synths, E-Gitarre und Drums mit ein.

Die Liebe zum Detail und die Zwischenwelt aus analog und digital, die Rom & Bode auch in diversen anderen Operationen ausleben (u.a. Oh No Noh + Wooden Peak), lässt Shimmer vertraut, verbunden und frisch zugleich klingen. Der Sound von ELME lässt filmischen Ambient, Hip Hop-inspirierte Rhythmen, psychedelische Electronica und nostalgischen Pop zu - Rom & Bode lassen sich ungern festlegen, dennoch bleibt beim Hören des Albums sofort etwas haften.

SHIMMER erscheint am 25.06. via TELESKOP (digital) + ALL MY GHOSTS (physisch) als limitierte Tape-Auflage.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ELME is Hungarian and means: mind. The ambient/electronica duo from Leipzig, formed by Markus Rom & Sebastian Bode interprets it on their debut album Shimmer like this:

Creating organic atmospheres and moods that affect the listener where the mind has no business - in the feeling. Well-sounding titles like "Lim", "Fern" or "Ada" can be understood as hints which offer the listener space for their own images and associations.

The ideas for the tracks on Shimmer first emerged in a ping-pong process (digital), and then were collectively reworked (analog). Thus, during the intense and intentionally limited studio phase, the working titles such as "Traurig Nr. 4" or "zuHause-Demo3" became meaningful frameworks, which reflect what this album is about - a piece of extraordinary music. Seven tracks made of tapeloops, cuts and vinyl samples found their way through modular signal paths. What partly sounds alienated, diffuse or oppressive, opens up confidently in a subtle-sounding dress later on. The recording sessions featured piano, string samples, analogue
synths, electric guitar and drums.

A delicate attention to detail and the in-between world of analogue and digital, which Rom & Bode also live out in various other operations (eg Oh No Noh + Wooden Peak), makes Shimmer sound familiar, intimate and fresh at the same time. ELME's sound blends cinematic ambient, hip
hop-inspired rhythms, psychedelic electronica and nostalgic pop - Rom & Bode don't like to be pinned down, but still a huge portion of signature sound remains when listening to the album for the first time.

Shimmer will be released on June 25 via TELESKOP (digital) + ALL MY GHOSTS (physical) as a limited tape edition.
