Label info: Loco Dice's much-anticipated debut LP has been created to take the listener on a journey. This is an album to be treasured as a fine-textured catalogue of the senses: a tribute to an extraordinary city, by visionary talent. Loco Dice, who spends much of his time shuttling between the world's main electronic music ports as an in-demand DJ, packed up his studio and relocated to New York City, together with studio-partner Martin Buttrich. There, the renowned Düsseldorf DJ, producer and Desolat label head fomented a raw and simmering soundtrack: a nuance-packed collection of sonic interpretations of scenes, characters and moods from the most diverse and mythologised city in the world. The album specifically pays homage to their adopted home base, Brooklyn, while sketching the trajectory of a musical life uprooted and transplanted, where dream-like feelings of isolation and melancholy transmute into a sense of place and kinship with the myriad of lives and rhythms that stop this town from sleeping. Nine tracks present electronic city-scapes that softly unfurl, gathering momentum just as the seasons revealed different personalities of the city. The process of writing an album is by turns insular and a reflection of one's environment. Add to this the sharpened senses and transmogrifications of a world which is foreign, yet strangely feels as if it has been lived once before, maybe in a dream, maybe as a deja vu........Voices Tip !!!!!
