[andistecher]

The track Ebiere explores the dialogue between grief and hope as a transformative experience. Ebiere's narrative encapsulates the journey of leaving outdated models and projections of life that aren’t sustainable anymore behind. It’s a tribute to a regained sense of self, freedom and liberation urging listeners to navigate the depths of their emotions and positionalities embrace transformation.

Credits: Lyrics & Vocals - Liaam Iman

Stecher feat. Liaam Iman - Solid Sources (Official Video) out now!

[andistecher]

STECHER FEAT. LIAAM IMAN - LEAP OF FAITH EP out now via Postmanslove ! Limited edition Postcard Vinyl available !

The EP is about gaining momentum before taking a leap of faith and realizing, “perfection” or “being overly ready” is an impossible ideal to reach. The EP addresses polarizations in our lives, opening dialogues of the “in-betweens” rather than extremes around balance and positioning when emotions or situations appear dual. Solid sources recorded in 2020 is about gathering forces, recognizing the strength of telling one’s own story and the empowering energy it brings especially when silenced by structural violence. Ebiere is about grief and hope and Leap of Faith, about feeling solid enough to jump into the unknown despite fear. Really it’s about change and liberation, a new set of rules yet to be created and discovered both individually and collectively. It’s important to us to mention the political context in which the EP is released. It echoes the current waves of extreme division, challenging orders in place and calling for global Liberation. Engaging our sense of action, empathy, solidarity and resilience, FOR ALL to have the undeniable right to live and lead meaningful lives.

Gordan - Šara (official video)

Taken from Gordan (out May 10, Glitterbeat Records) Pre-orders: https://idol-io.ffm.to/gordan Video by Luka Papić, Branka Majstorović, Svetlana Spajić

[andistecher]

Gordan mirror the mysticism of legends and stories from the Balkan region, creating a music that stretches between expressiveness and abstraction; tradition and the avant-garde. The visceral vocals of Svetlana Spajic (Marina Abramovic, Robert Wilson, Antony and the Johnsons) are both rooted and deeply interpretive. In turn, drummer Andi Stecher (STECHER, Billy Bultheel, Orchestre Les Mangelepa) and Guido Möbius on bass and electronics, employ sonic strategies that steer the songs in inspired and unpredictable directions.

Out via Glitterbeat records - May 10th !

Daniel kindly invited me to play drums for the record and work on the album together, producing and finalizing all these tracks together at Hangar.org . We worked a week on recording drums and reamping pieces at the amazing Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación  - wonderful place and experience.

It was great fun and a pleasure to work together on this project and I am happy we finally realized it after postponing several times for covid / travel etc. reasons.
