about

“Abandoned Spaces” merges both artists' distinctive sounds, talents and approaches to music making into an album that is full of otherworldly textures and melodies. Using a reductive approach to the compositions but with meticulous attention to detail Mazza and Düngfelder create jazzy vignettes that flow through heavily processed electric guitars, bass lines and drums that weave themselves into an ambient landscape of chiming micro sounds and ephemeral melodies. Songs flow into one another like water, which lends a devotional feel to the listening experience. In its truest sense, “Abandoned Spaces” is a tone poem. A merging of seemingly distinctive musical genres, it is an album of pristine sound design and unclassifiable style.

It was the philosopher Aristotle that first coined the phrase “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” In the case of the new album “Abandoned Spaces” by OdNu + Ümlaut (Michel Mazza & Jeff Düngfelder), this rings true. Both artists have lived many years in New York City, and both now reside in the countryside a few hours north of the city. And even though they only recently became acquaintances (through Audiobulb Records) their shared life experience made them perfect for this partnership. The result are compositions that reveal unexpected sounds and new ways of listening.
