PRE-ORDER: Andreas Tilliander - Ljud [Vinyl]

Andreas Tilliander released Ljud in 2001 as the first full-length album under his real name. The year before, the Swedish producer's Cliphop album under his Mokira moniker had established him in the world of adventurous electronic music and the clicks'n'cuts scene. Ljud was just as minimalistic, warm, and playful as its predecessor while also notably inspired by house music. It is a timeless record based on happy accidents, playful loops, and lively spontaneity. For its 25th anniversary, Keplar presents a vinyl reissue with adjusted artwork by graphic designer Marc Hohmann and updated mastering by the artist himself. Tilliander laid the foundation for his two first albums when he got rid of most of his music gear in 1998 after meeting Joel Brindefalk, who was already releasing music on the legendary Börft label. Brindefalk was using a computer as his main instrument and introduced Tilliander to the audio editing suite Sonic Foundry Sound Forge. The former synthesizer played an integral role while Tilliander made the tracks for Ljud, working primarily in the modular studio environment Jeskola Buzz. Ljud came together in an intuitive process. The Nord Modular and Buzz, which allowed him to swap samples and produce new sounds out of pre-existing ones, provided him with material for loops that formed the basis of the ten tracks. The casualness and vivacity of this improvisational approach is tangible throughout Ljud. Ljud was released on Achim Szepanski's Mille Plateaux, which had published the seminal Clicks+Cuts compilation in 2000. When preparing Ljud for the Keplar reissue, he ran the music through an analogue outboard and noticed he was still happy with the way it sounded. "It brought back fond memories," he says. "I hope the same is true for people who heard it back then, and that everyone who discovers it now will enjoy it, too!"
