The virtual release begins this Friday 13th at 12 PM.
Legendary trip-hop/electronica duo Kruder & Dorfmeister are back with their latest album, ‘1995’, which will be out via G-Stone. The album, which was originally composed in 1995, has now been recovered by the couple. For the occasion, the Austrians have decided to prepare a cutting-edge immersive music experience, set in a purely digital world, courtesy of creatives Jascha Suess and Yunus Sezer of Formlos Creative Studio.
Users will have to leave their email address to access, controlling an avatar with which they will navigate the audiovisual spaces created for the event. Each album track will have its own room inspired by the surreal world of the ‘Johnson’ music video, which will define much of the aesthetics of this virtual space. The place where it was recorded was captured using photogrammetry, a technique used to recreate 3D objects from still images, establishing a very familiar environment for all who have enjoyed the video.
‘Now it looks, feels, and sounds more or less exactly the same as those 10 original copies in 1995. The only thing that could be recreated where the original clouds of smoke with which those 10 copies were bathed. That will be left up to the listener, to wrap himself in the new harvest of 2020. In a way, it is a musical space journey through time’, said the duo about ‘1995’.
