Flying Moon In Space

Immer Für Immer

Across its pulsing repetitions and shifting emotional landscapes, the record explores the tension between the eternal and the transient – a reflection of the contradictions shaping contemporary life. Progress and exhaustion, community and isolation, being overwhelmed and longing for rest. The band treats music as a space where opposites meet: euphoria and melancholy, healing and excess, closeness and distance. More than an album, 'immer für immer' is described by the band "as a ritual against the feeling of being lost", carrying within it moments of grief, anger, desperation and the everyday struggles that accumulate at the edges of modern existence.Sonically, the album occupies a world where motorik rhythms, experimental instincts and pop sensibility intertwine. Elements of krautrock, post-punk, shoegaze, ambient and electronica dissolve into one another, further refining the group’s distinctive sound – one that resists easy categorisation but remains entirely their own.

The six-piece – Atom Parks (vocals), Valentin Bringmann (guitar), Henrik Rohde (guitar), Sebastian Derksen (guitar/synth), Sascha Neubert (bass) and Timo Lexau (drums) – are based in Leipzig, Germany and known for generating moments of intensity, energy and communion through their performances. As the band describes it: “We make music to find stability in chaos, defining our own space within the dimensions. It’s new and different every time we enter.” 'immer für immer' emerged through the group’s intuitive, non-hierarchical process of live improvisation. Every song grew from moments created in real time, a method they also applied to their previous albums – their self-titled debut, written entirely on tour, and 'ZWEI', a concept record inspired by the children’s game 'telephone' and recorded in a church. For Flying Moon In Space, creativity is not about chasing perfect sounds but capturing flashes of meaning, those rare moments in which something unfamiliar and deeply felt appears. To create the new album, the band spent ten days at Kinett, a former cinema in Kusel that has evolved into an international hotspot for forward-thinking music. Its atmosphere, history and resonant acoustics played a decisive role in shaping the sound. Within this unusual space, Flying Moon In Space found the ideal environment to expand their sonic universe – a place where the eternal and the fleeting could finally meet.

Flying Moon In Space

Remix EP

Following the release of their self-titled debut album in December 2020, Flying Moon In Space – a Leipzig-based group that deal in an experimental melting pot of psychedelic pop, krautrock, techno and math-rock – are now releasing a new EP made up of remixes of tracks from the debut album by the likes of Xiu Xiu, Suuns, A Place To Bury Strangers, Minami Deutsch, Camera and Warm Graves.

On the new EP, which is released digitally and on 12" vinyl by London-based label Fuzz Club, Jamie Stewart of prolific American experimental group Xiu Xiu pushes the industrial 4/4 psych of 'Faces' to IDM extremes, Brooklyn noise-rock heavyweights A Place To Bury Strangers give 'The Observer' a feedback-blasted redux and Montreal art-rockers Suuns turn 'Steam Water Solid' into an 81-second assault on the senses. Elsewhere, German group Camera transform 'Where Lovers Meet' into a piece of hedonistic synthesised krautrock and Japanese band Minami Deutsch inject the sinister 'Ardor' with a motorik dark disco groove. Closing the EP is a beautifully slow-burning and atmospheric reworking of 'Baustelle' courtesy of fellow Leipzig experimentalists and Fuzz Club label-mates Warm Graves.
