Jonas Meyer
Konfusion is the debut album by Germany’s Jonas Meyer. It is a collection of pulsing, shimmering electro-acoustic pieces. A multitude of sound sources, (including piano, percussion, synth and others I can’t identify) are treated and layered up, often underpinned by a strong pulse. Sometimes the pieces sway heavily into the digital realm, with precise edits, clicks and cuts, other times the processing is more gentle and reserved. Konfusion is without doubt a fascinating, complex and sophisticated debut album.

Holographic Field
Holographic Field is the soloproject of the Pianist and Producer Jonas Meyer, based in Berlin. In his debut „Window Gazer“, he combines his different musical backgrounds and inspirations. A mesh up between epic ambiences, clubby electronica, neo-classical and postrock elements. Dreamy landscapes meet their gloomy complement, always between dark and bright, near and far searching their balance.

frames
Frames deliver complex songs of an instrumental nature. Packed full of detail and perfected with their own unique sound. With a true players ease, huge guitar riffs turn into romantic melodies, driving drums travel through dark mists to find a ray of sunshine, soft piano sequences dance up an ever-building foundation until they form the perfect storm. Chapter for chapter, song for song, strings of emotion form a network to become personal stories – either real of fictional – where listeners can form an individual soundtrack for their own mental picture.
Unland
Unland creates soundscapes between conventional composition and digital abstraction. The performance of the trio oscillates between warm timbre and crystalline structures and thereby maps its musical frontiers. The Unland which is created by this means defies any definition and is influenced by jazz, classical music, kraut-rock and ambient-meditations. The band utilizes the musical versatility of its members who play grand-piano, guitar, clarinet, bass-clarinet, flute and trumpet and manipulate the sounds in real-time. Live the result is never predictable and every performance is an experiment at the same time.
LMP
LMP is a side project of producer Jonas Meyer, exploring his love for Hip Hop instrumentals, Vaporwave and Jazz.
Combining wonky beats, synth saxophone, a fair amount of lofi-keyboard-dreams and some leftfield electronica LMPs sound universe arises.
Advocating creativity and fun with a pinch of irony – LMP delivers beats for procrastination and recreation.
