about the record
Giraffe is a Hamburg-based trio featuring Charly Schöppner on percussion, Sascha Demand on electric guitar, and Jürgen Hall on synthesizers.
On "Shine and Dark" Giraffe built their music around acoustic drums, frame drums and electric percussions, that evoke spiritual jazz emotions and percussive ethnic vibes while dark synth layers and mesmerizing guitar microtonality dances around the rhythmic tension. Suspenseful wondrous storytelling, that opens a gate to an elaborated executed, multi-layered musical paradise, that is entirely induced by desire.
“We compose and produce everything together. The ideas of each single member become better through the influences of the others.” they reveal about their meandering creative activity. The result is a sublime tension of itself: a psychoacoustic distillation of improvisation, composition and experiment in which clattering percussion, synthesized transcendence and dreamily electric guitar serialism transform into radical poetic journey music.
