Felsmann & Tiley: The Echoes Interview
Techno DJs Felsmann & Tiley take the ambient classical pill and dial up a more cinematic electronic sound on their second album, Protomensch. They come in from the cold of hard techno for a warmer, more hypnotic sound that is a long way from the day floor.
Patrick Tiley: “We were a bit more youthful and energetic then for DJing club music and now we’re sort of making more music for the reclining chair.”
Their new conceptual release, Protomensch, manages to be hard-hitting and political as well as poignant and thoughtful, as they explore the idiocy and ingenuity of mankind. We talk to Felsmann & Tiley on Echoes from PRX.
