Monolake release new album entitled “Silence”, just short of the project’s 15th anniversary.
Founded in 1995 by Robert Henke and Gerhard Behles, Monolake quickly stood out from their peers, drawing influence not only from minimal techno and drum ‘n bass but also the “sonic richness and sophistication of academic computer music”.

The world we live in, on a very fundamental level, is flawed. On the eve of my tenth album release I’m still writing my own bio and wondering if I should refer to myself in third person, analyze the past 15 years and justify bad career moves as artistic integrity, and promote myself as the [...]

Many turn the last month of the year into a merciless chasm-filling throng of merriment and shiny cheer; and we are no different.
