Thomas Fehlmann, a longtime collaborator of The Orb and a key figure in the Kompakt Records family, brings his signature electronic sensibility to 1929 - Das Jahr Babylon, a documentary film soundtrack that aired on German ARD network in September 2018. The album transports listeners to a pivotal moment in history, weaving together regional and period-appropriate source material into hypnotic, nuanced repetitions that feel both rooted in the past and unmistakably modern.
What sets 1929 - Das Jahr Babylon apart is its remarkable sense of continuity — each track builds upon the last, adding a new layer of unease that gives the album a cohesive, immersive quality. From ambient interludes to spacious, echoing textures, Fehlmann crafts a soundtrack that works just as compellingly as a standalone listening experience, making this Kompakt release a worthy addition to any collection of serious electronic music.
