Airchina, aka Nikolai Szymanski (born 1986, Düsseldorf), is a musician and visual artist. He uses a wide variety of media in relation to his work, with a focus on film/video, performance and music. Together with Lucas Croon and Martin Sonnensberger, he is a founding member as well as singer and lyricist of the band Stabil Elite. Listening to the new LP by Nikolai Szymanski, aka Airchina, you can hear threads back to his LP 1 (2018), in which sounds wove themselves silky-thin and -beautiful into a fine fabric of ambient and sound art, and whose powdery narrative continued in LP 2 (ITA 115LP, 2020) as a more plastic structure of electronic with nuances of pop. LP 3 is at once more constructive and more subtle in its compositional substance: a musical and diversely condensing emotional space in which all the (experiential) knowledge from what he had previously composed comes together in a body of work. Here, the momentary flows into a performative choreography in which each musical setting begins to shine prismatically and each individual track becomes an independently acting corpus in the structure of the whole. Includes printed inner sleeve.
