IMPS
Title:
Bring Out The Imps
Label:
MULE ELECTRONIC (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$15.50
Catalog #:
MULE 012CD
This is the debut collaborative release from
IMPS
, a collaboration between Malmö's
Minilogue
and two jazz musicians from Melbourne, Australia. The songs were recorded during a two-week long improvisation/jam session where everything was recorded live (with some post-production) in an attempt to capture the feeling of real-time, actively performed acoustic instruments mixed with electronic craziness (also captured live). The result is a display of funk-fuelled jazz that shows how much can be done with open minds and shitloads of toys in a big studio.
Sebastian Mullaert
and
Marcus Henriksson
came from opposing backgrounds. Sebastian was trained as a classical musician playing the organ, piano and the violin, while Marcus lived on a diet of
Kraftwerk
and
Front 242
. They met at a party and decided to combine Sebastian's musician's perspective with Marcus' DJ skills from the Swedish scene. After achieving some success as
Son Kite
and
Trimatic
, Marcus and Sebastian are now Minilogue -- an animalistic music concept without the boundaries of genres. Through the years, their music has expanded and moved through a variety of sounds, appealing across the board of electronic music. They make music that is built for peak-time dancefloors as well as for laid-back listening, producing a sound that is industrial, vivid and continually provocative. IMPS are:
Ian Chaplin
(soprano sax, Rhodes, drums & percussion);
Philip Rex
(double bass, electric bass, guitar, drum machines); Sebastian Mullaert (viola, Moog, Voyager, Rhodes, synths, tape delay, tweak master, computer programming & samplers, post production); Marcus Henriksson (drum machine, computer programming & samplers, post production).
