Hendrik Weber aka Pantha Du Prince (‘a fantasy character...a poetic transporter for the concept behind the music’) has carved a niche for a style of techno he calls, ‘layered and cinematographic.’ He released the “Diamond Daze” (2004) and “This Bliss” (2007) albums on Berlin dance label Dial before signing to Rough Trade and widening his audience with “Black Noise” (2010) and “The Element of Light” (2013). On “Conference of Trees”, Pantha Du Prince explores the communication of trees and creates a sound concept based on it. What we experience here is a break through recording of experimental music, visual poetry, club culture and speculative science.

STAFF COMMENTS

Sil says: I find myself as I get older enjoying releases like this more and more. Considered, well thought out and dynamic; it tells a story from beginning to end rather than just rely on delivering peak time bangers. One for my headphones.
