Follow on Google News | Jumpel’s Deuxième Bureau Official CD ReleasePerth, Western Australia; Cologne, Germany. The Australian music label Hidden Shoal Recordings today announced the official CD release of Deuxième Bureau, the sophomore album by German minimal electro maestro Jumpel.
Deuxième Bureau is a further refinement of the Jumpel sound so wonderfully displayed on debut album Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach. Like perfectly fabricated ecosystems, each track is a luscious miniature environment complete with its own microclimate and prismatic inhabitants. The attention to detail in the music is consistently astonishing, rewarding close listening with a good pair of headphones. Deuxième Bureau is a fabric of intimate moments – some parts woven tightly, others open to the air – and an enticing invitation to explore Jumpel’s delicate and immersive ambient micro-pop. Early standout ‘Clay State’ layers aching strings, brushed drums, Rhodes piano and vibrato guitar into a delicately affecting throb. Single ‘Quicken Belts’ amiably bounces Rhodes, marimba and rustling rhythms against the sounds of neon fireflies, tiny springs and electrical flickering, before they are submerged in a pond of metallic particles. And gorgeous closing track ‘The Sea/Friends’ “The elegance of Deuxième Bureau is stunning… ambient music with heart and soul” – Luna Kafe “Jumpel brings a wealth of musical and life experience to this meticulously crafted debut album… intimate despite its broad spectrum of instrumental colour and occasional cinematic ambiance” – Textura on SJLOTB Deuxième Bureau is now available on CD through n5Mailorder, the distribution arm of n5MD, and digitally from the HSR Store and all good digital music stores such as iTunes, eMusic and Amazon.
