Troels Hammer Trans/For/Mation LP Sampler

Vinyl 6-track sampler of the brilliant new debut album ‘Trans/For/Mation’ from Danish composer and pianist Troels Hammer including a stunning remix from Farbror Resande Mac. Released on Copenhagen’s Music For Dreams, this taster showcases Hammer’s unconventional approach to combining classical and electronic music as part of the New Nordic Classical Movement. Includes ‘The Singing Clouds’ - dreamy pads, solo synths, and old skool drum machines aimed squarely at the dancefloor sounding like an updated Innovative Communication record; the string-infused dream-like bliss of ‘Mother Space’; the warm soulful spaced out ‘Cold Hawaii’ - 100% cinematic sunset material with echoes of Bladerunner; ‘Father Space’ whose floating pads drift steadily through the seas of electronic beats towards the horizon of the Universe; and the beautiful ‘Birdy’, a classical piano piece composed by Polish film score composer Zbigniew Preisner, here adapted by Troels Hammer adding his special emotional touch. Icing on the cake is a very special remix from Sweden’s Farbror Resande Mac who deliver a timeless chill out rework of ‘Mother Space’ - drum machines, soft pads, bubbly synths and nice guitars creating a full moon ambience, a future classic for Balearic connoisseurs to be sure.
Six horizontal tracks of the highest calibre - recommended to all fans of Nils Frahm, Wim Mertens and lovers of deeply rewarding melancholic and stunningly eternal music.
