places by Thyladomid

Here we are releasing the second album of Cologne born producer Thyladomid who is familiar to many through his work on Hamburg label Diynamic which has lead him to perform around the world, together with artists such as: Adriatique, Solomun, Kollektiv Turmstraße, HOSH, David August, Stimming and many more.

With more then 30 minutes playing time, 6 tracks and artwork by Florian Kramer the vinyl version has a lot to discover.

The digital version of the album offers 14 tracks with a running time of 1 hour and 30 minutes of unreleased music and is great for the summers where you have time to sneak into all of the tracks and to explore all the details of this album!

Thyladomid is famous for his forward thinking deep melodic dance music which earned him respect and support from many people in the scene and evolved also in cooperations with Adriatique and the singer Mahfoud. You can find two tracks featuring Mahfoud on the album as well as two tracks where he collaborated with Mario Hammer And The Lonely Robot.

With his album "Interstellar Destiny" in 2015 Thyladomid changed towards more introspective music and you will hear a lot more of this.

In comparison to his first album "places" refers to different places which inspired him to write the album. This album offers a higher level of complexity in the making of music which has helped Thyladomid to enhance the moody quality in a dazzling sometimes even in a spine tingling way, when you let yourself go to explore the abundance of the trax.

As he said in his own words: „The albums intention was that of an organic produced album with different moods. Instruments such as piano and violin as well as field recording bring alive a special quality.

The bouncing of stones on a frozen pond recorded with multiple microphones suggest for example an authentic spacious quality. The self recorded percussion, sometimes quite exotic were included in all of the tracks. The combination of synthetic sounds with traditionally instruments was one of the big challenges for me. The piano and Prophet 6 and the Moog Sub37 were the main instruments used for the album“.

Thyladomid started working on the album two and a half years ago. His classical training on the piano helped to quickly come up with a musical theme which is based on different tonalities which were then linked to each other and which actually helped to structure the whole release.

The good weather in summer was a good inspiration and finally led to the idea to dedicate tracks to a certain place, places which mean a lot to him. From that idea the title of the whole album derived: "places".
