One of Berlin's most iconic and recognized underground producers is back with his new album A Sole Game. Following up 2012's Square (RB 005CD/LP), Redshape continues to forge distinctly cinematic and suspenseful dance music, blurring lines of past, present and future. As a true disciple of '90s techno, that era's sounds have always been an essential part of his musical DNA, while avoiding simple re-enactment. As on previous full-lengths, his tracks build dark and eerily romantic narratives of their own. Sebastian Kramer may have kept his Redshape project faceless in the past, but his music has always been driven by a strong personality. "I always tried to do my own interpretation of something I really liked," as Kramer puts it. For The Dance Paradox (DSR 080CD/LP), his 2009 debut, his old love for the Chemical Brothers's organic sound made him incorporate live drums. On Square, he recreated Brian Eno's '70s tape-looping setups. A Sole Game marks a departure from this slightly imitative approach, spawning his most self-aware record to date. The title hints at this process of self-reflection; if this whole business of music-making is nothing more than a game, an album is the only chance for it's players to show their skills. In typical Redshape style, the eight tracks of A Sole Game take one on a journey through nighttime worlds and dusky industrial landscapes haunted by howls and other strange voices. It's obvious that one of the most important goals was to craft a seamless whole of an electronic album that works without interludes or what others would consider "album material". Each track is a universe of it's own and ready to be played in a club. A limited amount of instruments made it possible for the songs to sound quite homogenous despite being constructed very diversely. Most of the melodic structures stem from a Prophet 12 synth; most of the drums from 808s and 909s, providing a warm and analog sound. This traditionalist techno setup allowed for a fast and immediate workflow while recording the foundations of each track. Later on, Kramer took these recordings and elaborately arranged and processed them, trying to maintain the sometimes naive and pure emotions of the initial recordings and establish an organic feel. By fusing this proper songwriter approach with the codes of techno, Redshape takes a big step forward in his musical evolution.
