In 2006 Ansatz der Maschine set a new standard for Belgian indietronica with the briilliant album 'The Postman Is A Girl'. Now the much-anticipated follow up is here.
'Painting bad Weather on her Body' illustrates how Ansatz der Maschine has grown. It's Mathijs Bertel's second solo-album, yet it fully integrates the Ansatz live band. The subtle electronics are blended with acoustic violins, saxophones, drums, Rhodes, electric guitars, voices ... The result is a warm, slightly distorted mash up of great song writing, producing and musicianship.
Ansatz der Maschine plays live as a four piece band, with visuals.
Ansatz der Maschine is: Mathijs Bertel - electronics, alto violin, keys; Bram De Vreese - alto sax, guitars; Jan Dhaene - drums, rhodes, moog; Ruben Vercaemer - tenor sax, rhodes, moog |
