Apparat @ Palaestragon
From elegiac techno to deep orchestral pop ballads, Apparat‘s work
always has a common denominator: an elegance embracing and providing
nuanced layers of detail and a near-universal beauty. As a member of
Moderat, working alongside Ellen Allien or as a solo performer, Apparat
has sought to transcend the sense of the dance floor and the concert
hall alike. Rigorously attending to every element integrated into his
musical work, Apparat focuses on the micro to enhance the macro, in
emotional and memorable melodies that echo in the memory with broad and
seldom simple rhythmic constructions. He’s achieved becoming an
always-current and dynamic reference on the international electronic
music scene. Apparat has more recently focused on production in the
panorama of cinema, TV series, and theatre, gaining recognition and
awards that continue to place him as a musician in high-demand. His work
for the film “Capri – Revolution” just won for Best Soundtrack at the
Venice Film Festival, and his collaboration with Transforma, and with
the installation and performance artists, Manufactory, has just opened
at the Barbican in London.
