Currently having insane work load in event tech, I still find a little time, and now is a time to listen to a few tracks of the #StrategiesAgainstAlgorithms by @stephan – I'd love to write a detailed review somewhen.
For now… while this record feels very personal Stephan / Schall & Stille, I can also sense influences… some tracks remind me of #Faithless. Not the Faithless of the radio edit of Insomnia, the uncut album versions of things. While vastly electronic, this album for sure feels more than a 100% crafted, not generated.
You can get it and not get it from via Stephan's own art form of distribution: https://strategies.schallundstille.de – basically, you have to trade it with something you created yourself… which in a magical way establishes a type of connection to that music, which gives me an idea of the value this music has for its maker, but also should have for me as a listener. Very different from clicking a „stream now for free“ button.
