Laurin Huber
is a prolific figure in the Swiss underground for experimental music and arts. He has been active as a musician and producer in a slew of projects like
Wavering Hands
,
Frederik
, or legendary Swiss institution
Krankenzimmer 204
. Having just released his first solo release under the
R.E.R.
moniker on the label Edipo Re, co-founded by Huber and frequent collaborator
Rolf Laureijs
in 2016, he now presents his first album under his given name. The four tracks on
Juncture
aim to work with "superimpositions, interactions, interferences, and modes of coexistence," as Huber explains. "I'm generally interested in thought that tries to look at the world beyond dualisms," says the artist. "Contemporary feminist theory and philosophies of difference, the critique of dualities such as nature/nurture, body/mind, object/subject or anorganic/organic are therefore important reference points." On a musical level, this means working with overlaps and interfering layers, field recordings as well as synthesizers and the experienced drummer's knack for intricate rhythms. Over the course of more than half an hour, the producer brings together dreamlike synthesizer pieces with stripped-down, mid-tempo techno pieces, feverish echoes of industrial music, and swelling sounds that are juxtaposed with subtle rhythmic counterpoints. In a world in which dualities reign and polarization increases both socially and culturally,
Junction
serves as an invitation to deconstruct binary thinking by affirming the coexistence of allegedly opposed elements. It does so with striking emotional ambiguity, sometimes lulling in its audience with soothing sounds and in the next challenging them with an ominous atmosphere. 180 gram vinyl.
