FOREWORD
“Here is a compilation bringing together a few pieces of the huge and eclectic oeuvre of Bernhard Wöstheinrich. It’s curated by yours truly, Jean-Philippe Rossi (heart and brain of the Unquiet Music Ltd. project)
Some of you might know that my own music may not have existed without the big impact of me meeting Markus Reuter a few years back; but on the same occasion, I also met Bernhard and found out about his music. I was immediately attracted to his unique blend of electronics, atmospheric compositions and extended pieces, which dragged me into a totally unknown world.
How Bernhard brings this music to life remains a mystery to me to this day.
The series of pieces I have selected and edited here are an attempt to collect and contact some of this mystery. Arranged and sequenced according to my own taste and fantasy, they also happened to loop into my mind with a strange set of visions – unfolding landscapes and surreal events – that I tried to lay down in writing as they came together while I listened to the music.
For those who do not know Bernhard’s music, here is my attempt at setting you up to be transported the same way that I was.
For those of you who do, here’s another trip through this universe of sound and its way of interwining the self-evident with the transgalactic.”
