APL035 >> MOVE D - 10/11 - LIVE AT JOHANNESKIRCHE
[16.01.2006 | CHAMBERDUBS AT THE CHURCH]

Autoplate welcomes 2006 with a release by Move D, head and owner of Source
Records from Heidelberg, Germany.

To most listeners of advanced electronic music Move D might not be an unknown
name at all, as he is producing and releasing for about 15 years. David grew
up listening to Pink Floyd and Kraftwerk and quickly developed a special taste
for music. However, it wasn't until 1989 that he discovered techno when a
friend of his, D-Man, invited him to a club he was running in the industrial
suburb of Mannheim. When Moufang walked into the Milk Club that night - like so
many others before and after him - he discovered a scene that changed his life.
Shortly thereafter, Moufang became a committed clubber.

Moufang's first records were made with Jonas Grossmann as Deep Space Network.
Their first two albums, EARTH TO INFINITY (1992) and BIG ROOMS (1993) suggested
a significant, unpredictable and innovative talent which was confirmed by the
release of HOMEWORKS (1993), a Source Records compilation that included solo
tracks such as "Pulsar" and "I've Been On Drugs" alongside collaborations with
D-Man.

Ranging from subtle, Detroit-inflected grooves to wired electronic jazz,
Moufang's music seemed to operate on ambience, slow motion and subdued rhythm,
a sound that was rooted, as Tony Marcus later pointed out, "in the jazzy,
laid-back but still hip-tugging tradition of Larry Heard, Carl Craig's
"Microlovr" or "The Wonders Of Wishing" and New York's Burrell Brothers...
listening to [Moufang's records] is like a sweet and lazy adventure into sound,
a space where time and stress are suspended."

Move D's debut album, KUNSTSTOFF (1995), was equally remarkable. Tracks such as
"Soap Bubbles" and "In/Out" oscillated between soft, dreamlike textures and the
spiked electronics that Detroit was beginning to explore. The glittering
production surfaces were a legacy of Moufang's days as a student at the School
of Audio Engineering in Frankfurt, but the music they encompassed was equally
compelling. It was an album full of contrasts - between the jagged drugfloor
grooves of, say, "Nimm 2" and the gentle, synthetic lullaby of "Beyond The
Machine" or between the pristine sounds Moufang conjured with and the haloes of
analogue noise which surrounded others. Amazingly pretty and wildly innovative,
KUNSTSTOFF remains one of the most accomplished techno albums to emerge from
Europe so far.

The collaborative ventures that followed - including EXPLORING THE PSYCHEDELIC
LANDSCAPE (1996) and A DAY IN THE LIVE (1997) with Pete Namlook - preceded an
experimental single for Sheffield's WARP RECORDS label. Moufang had been a big
fan of the label's "bleep techno" output in the early '90s and "Cymbelin" was,
in some ways, a homage to that sound, twisting beats and synths into a bass
heavy groove. But the producer's ability to soften almost any structure with
aching prettiness transformed the record into a unique fusion.

Another unique fusion was suggested by the release of CONJOINT (1997). A
collaboration between Moufang, jazz veteran Karl Berger, Jamie Hodge (of Born
Under A Rhyming Planet) and Gunter "Ruit" Kraus, it was Moufang's most overtly
jazzed outing so far, but provided spectacular evidence of his growing abilities
as a producer and composer.

Since then Move D continued to have numerous releases, contributions and remixes
on labels ranging from Compost Records, Plug Research, Fax +49-69/450464, City
Slang, F-Communications, Traum to name a few.

Recorded live in a unique environment"Johanniskirche" Church in Dⁿsseldorf, the
first liveset release by Move D is a pulsating, thrilling and comfortable
intersection between Funk, Ambient and carefully crafted Minimalism. Wondering
why its going out on Autoplate and not on Thinner ? ... point is the setlist
makes use of consequent stylistic drifts between downbeat-/ ambient spheres and
soft clicky 4/4 house beats, the ensuing atmosphere makes this release a perfect
reference for joyful experiments within relaxed listening, one of the most
identifiable characteristics of Autoplate.

Move D elegantly fills the room with his unfettered take on modern lounge music
elegantly and serenely circumnavigating any prevalent beats, sub-scenes and trends,
meanwhile his soft trademark sound is omnipresent. The tracks elegantly build
with elements and structures fading in smoothly and careful detail is given to
the usage of silence in between the tracks.

Emotion is transferred into completely new environments and works as a starting
point for the different scenes,a touchstone, an always returning reference, the
base for modern, experimental lullabies, guided by a love for reduced
architectured warmth, full of digital static. These sounds preserve a certain
organic natural touch at any given time, which is no surprise as Moufangs home
studio is fully equipped with hardware synthesizers, next to modern software tools.

"10/11 - Live at Johanneskirche" is an impressive musical documentation of an
exploration inside sonic spectrums, a reduction of elements with a consequent
glance at key structures such as electronic funk and dubby grooves.

The optional cdr version that is available at a reasonable price comes with no
annoying gaps in between the tracks. As opposed to the mp3 release, besides, the
cdr version is equipped with the uncompressed audio master file without the
artefacts caused by the mp3 encoding.
