Michael Brückner: Thirteen Rites of Passage

My album Thirteen Rites of Passage was actually already released on Tuesday, the 14th of January 2014, on SynGate Records.

However, since it's my most recent release, I thought why not start with it?

The seven tracks - most of them Berlin School type of electronica - are based on live recordings that took place over the year 2013 (both actual concert recordings, but also live in the studio - improvisations from the preceding rehearsals and preparations.)

However, "Thirteen Rites of Passage" is no live album in the traditional sense, as many of the tracks are edited and mixed with one another to create a unique new album.

Here's a trailer:
