Stareaway No Life In This Ghost Town Couldn't Care More ntlp001 Their first EP as STAREAWAY, called "Learn How To Love Me", was released on Hamburg-based label Couldnt Care More in 2011 including a remix by deep house icon Osunlade crossing all borders, yet feeling so natural, and the somewhat timeless electronic pop reference "Unwise". Now STAREAWAY come up with their first album "No Life In This Ghost Town" (again on Couldnt Care More); seven sketches between song and track deliberately carved from a shimmering wall of electronic sound by guitars, spiritualized voices and subtle melodies. Its caressing and thoughtful, but there is also a darkness that makes you shiver. Glowing embers in far away windows. STAREAWAY combine a vision of sound with multitudes of micro-organisms which take turns no one can forsee. And what may appear as a mere coincidence is in fact a concentrated search. They are seekers of the things lying underneath. |

Stareaway Learn How To Love Me Couldn't Care More 001 Debut release for Stareaway, a new project of german "inventor of pop ambient" Markus Guentner with singer Heiko Badje, the man behind saudade-driven pop band La Grande Illusion. Following several releases and highly successful and critically acclaimed albums Guentner solely released since 2001 for Kompakt and Ware, Guentner and Badje contributed their first co-operation "Baghira" on Kompaktís Pop Ambient 2006 compilation. Markus Guentners track "Regensburg", considered to be one of the best tracks Kompakt ever released, was selected by Sven Vaeth to finish his Mix Of The Second Season and remixed by Wolfgang Voigt. For the start of the new Hamburg based label Couldn't Care More they release two melancholic pop ambient tracks, the title track additionally remixed by Osunlade, the acclaimed producer, DJ and label owner of Yoruba Records. The both aerial and profound ambient soundscape of "Learn How To Love Me" is waiting patiently, increasing softly while Heiko Badjes voice shivers with emotions of entreaty and wanting. It is followed by the sublime deepness of ìUnwiseî in which Badjeís lyrics about love and temptation appear into a vision of pop as atmospheric intensity and disappear into somewhere else. On the b-side the Yoruba Soul Suite reworks the original totally. Osunlade is looking for a different kind of deepness, transforming ambient into an epic, floating journey of house music full of light and groove. |
