\u201cI like small things, the nearness, the quietness … like crumbs, droplets, seconds. And i like blurriness.\u201d<\/div>\n

“atermus” is the debut album of Duesseldorf composer, producer and sound designer Tom Blankenberg.
13 minimal solo piano tracks in an undefined mixture of classical, jazz, avant-garde, score and song are creating a unique Neo-Film-Noir soundtrack with subtle, melancholic melodies rising over dense and tensioned harmonies, “Like an impressionistic painting” a listener once said. Or \u201e\u2026as if Bill Evans were communing with Arvo P\u00e4rt.\u201d.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
With his album, an amalgamation of decades as being a musician, composer and sound designer, but first of all a music lover, Tom Blankenbergs\u00a0approach on the new, popular \u201eNeoclassical\u201c genre, that more often take place outside of the concert hall, is very genuine – no effects, no loops and no\u00a0electronics.
Pure piano – intimate, delicate, quiet and deep. A rest for 21st century minds. \u201eatermus\u201c is available here at Less Records on vinyl and CD as well as on streaming platforms.<\/div>\n
