Most recently, \u003cem\u003eAtem\u003c\/em\u003e, a composition for Roadburn Festival, was released in 2022, documenting yet another, more experimental side of the project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the new, eagerly awaited fourth album, all these multi-faceted worlds are brought together in an impressive way. \u003cem\u003eOphio\u003c\/em\u003e, Ophio you say. Lies in the end of you. Still the best ahead of me? With these lines from the title track, \u003cstrong\u003eSebastian Lee Philipp\u003c\/strong\u003e poses the question that spans over the entire album like a parenthesis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe work entitled \u003cem\u003eOphio\u003c\/em\u003e tells of constant transformation, the blurring of beginning, end, and the various dimensions in between. \"It's about the constant unfolding of the self, about the seductive forces of life, an ode to existence and the transformation to happiness,\" says \u003cstrong\u003ePhilipp\u003c\/strong\u003e himself about his conceptual direction of the album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe meandering between leaving behind and starting anew is not only found in the lyrics, but also in the music itself. The production seems more consistent than ever before, stripping away all frills and trinkets, like a skin that has become too tight. The compositions form a concentrate in which every single sound finds its space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a certain sense, it's like listening to an introspection in which the bundled voices become a single, demanding murmur that is both drone and whisper in equal measure. \"I see you in blows of delight. Where have you been? Make my eyes to love the things that want to love\" (From 'In Wonnenhieben', English. In Blows of Delight).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs on the previous album \u003cem\u003eHaut\u003c\/em\u003e, the drums were played by long-time stage partner \u003cstrong\u003eRan Levari\u003c\/strong\u003e. The new album also features cellist and singer \u003cstrong\u003eLih Qun Wong\u003c\/strong\u003e (Lihla), who first joined \u003cem\u003eDie Wilde Jagd\u003c\/em\u003e for the live performance of \u003cem\u003eAtem\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis collaboration sounds particularly impressive on \u003cem\u003eThe Hearth\u003c\/em\u003e, the band's first English-language song. A beguiling track as if of shiny, heavy tar, carried by \u003cstrong\u003ePhilipp\u003c\/strong\u003e's dense composition, \u003cstrong\u003eLevari\u003c\/strong\u003e's pulsating beats, and lyricist \u003cstrong\u003eWong\u003c\/strong\u003e's voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOther production partners were \u003cstrong\u003ePhilipp Otterbach\u003c\/strong\u003e (Kelch) and \u003cstrong\u003eVactrol Park\u003c\/strong\u003e (In Wonnenhieben). \u003cstrong\u003eNina Siegler\u003c\/strong\u003e, who could already be heard as a duet partner in the song Himmelfahrten, also lends her voice again to the tracks \u003cem\u003eOuroboros\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eIn Wonnenhieben\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the journey ends after just under 50 minutes with the questions \"Will your songs blind me again? Be sparkling eyes to me in the dark?\" and dissonant choirs release you out into the distance, it's as if you're right back at the beginning again, only to set off once more. An album as strange as it is beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bureau B","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50383090057547,"sku":"2009865","price":30.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50383089893707,"sku":"2009859","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/ophio_85fbed7a_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726262723"},{"product_id":"atem","title":"Atem","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter three studio albums, several EPs and numerous international tours and concerts, \u003cstrong\u003eDie Wilde Jagd\u003c\/strong\u003e now releases the recording of \u003cem\u003eAtem\u003c\/em\u003e - a composition commissioned by Roadburn Festival, premiered in April 2021 in Tilburg, Netherlands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAtem\u003c\/em\u003e comes as a strictly limited vinyl LP. \u003cstrong\u003eDie Wilde Jagd\u003c\/strong\u003e is the music project of producer and songwriter Sebastian Lee Philipp. Channelling minimalist, tenebrous intensity, \u003cstrong\u003eDie Wilde Jagd\u003c\/strong\u003e's music weaves a dense and atmospheric web of drama, romance, ecstasy and melancholy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bureau B","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50490491076939,"sku":"1137766","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yellow LP","offer_id":50778637697355,"sku":"2231787","price":31.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/f640a0b0-a8bd-445c-bbd6-190050f02269_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727663937"},{"product_id":"lux-tenera-a-rite-to-joy-1","title":"Lux Tenera - A Rite To Joy","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDie Wilde Jagd\u003c\/strong\u003e collaborates with Grammy Award-winning \u003cstrong\u003eMetropole Orkest\u003c\/strong\u003e, conducted by Simon Dobson, for majestic new album \u003cem\u003eLux Tenera – A Rite To Joy\u003c\/em\u003e, commissioned by Roadburn Festival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis work emerges from a rare collaboration with the three-time Grammy Award-winning \u003cstrong\u003eMetropole Orkest\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cem\u003eLux Tenera\u003c\/em\u003e invites listeners into a meditative exploration of life, joy, and the beauty of existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition premiered on April 21, 2024, in Tilburg, Netherlands, following an intense three-day rehearsal and recording period at \u003cstrong\u003eMetropole Orkest\u003c\/strong\u003e’s studio in Hilversum.
