RELEASE DATE
10/11/2005
Düsseldorf transplant via New York, this is TG Mauss' (
Torsten Mauss
) first solo record. Having previously recorded as one half of the synth-pop electro duo
Tonetraeger
together with
Volker Bertelmann
(
Music A.M.
,
Hauschka
), Mauss has crafted his intimately-structured new release from retroactive memories of a dream-filled childhood. A soft wind, a warming breeze, each track on
Mechanical Eye
is a calm and thoughtful journey through minimal electronics, and soft, purring vocals. Each song is a brief story: in every departing wave a sound, a tone, in every white horse a voice, the glint of a guitar. What is created on
Mechanical Eye
is a fragile and delicate jewel and perhaps, ultimately, really treasure at the bottom of the ocean. Generous with shimmering samples, and with broad, catchy old-fashioned indiepop, it scarcely matters what you'd call it or what category you'd place it in, and these days that's more important than anything. Mauss is a pseudo-
Vincent Gallo
changing all the certainties that we no longer need into an idea to warm our world.
