THN090 >> PHILIPP WEIGL - MONSTERS
[23.11.2006 | LYRICAL PHANTASMOGORIC MUSINGS]
Fitting naturally into the autumn mood and reflecting the
satisfying warmth of a relaxing evening at home, the Munich-
based electronic music artist Philipp Weigl brings his first
album to Thinner following the release of Silently Moving
on Legego one year ago. Monsters is influenced mostly by
the music of Björk, Portishead, and Radiohead along with the
lyrics of Nick Cave and, in a minimal way, by his studies of
classical piano at the University of Music and Performing Arts
in Munich.
Monsters is about music and lyrics. They emerge independent
of and unconnected with one another only to meet for a
conjoined dance. The music and lyrics are deferential of one
another with the music coming out of a creative void and the
lyrics being formed by a blend of experiences, dreams,
fantasies, and memories. Spoken in a low, whispered voice,
the lyrics do not rise above the music, but drift just below
the surface making their presence known without being
intrusive. At the same time, the music intensifies the
predominantly subtle character of the lyrics in order to
reveal the fine humor, irony, and emotion hiding within them
but without affecting them too hard. The resulting sounds are
at once melancholic and dark but also harmonious and warm.
Listening to the songs on the album creates a feeling much
like one gets during sleep as our dreams reappraise the days
experiences. Immediately awakened from a dream every part of
it can be recalled and each nuance can be experienced and
seen with the inner eye as a phantasmagoric slideshow of
continuous images. Slightly disoriented, we ask ourselves -
was this real or was it a dream? As the day progress and our
memories degrade with the passage of time, details of the
dream fade away and only vague fragments remain like a
collection of disjointed snapshots.
The eight songs on Monsters describe pictures of daily life
from the viewpoint of a dream with emotions ranging from
slightly unsettling to wistful. For example, listening to
Unrelated we hear, I found a letter in my bag that was
written in a language that I dont understand. Philipp
translates this into the disconcerting feeling that there
seem to be events in life that are completely incomprehensible
to the individual person while at the same time appearing to
be understood by everyone else. On the other hand, the mood
turns melancholic and nostalgic on Lifted as we hear the
dreamy juxtapositions of unconnected sentences: Im lying on
my back and Im watching fireworks. - Id like to dance
like the others do. - I can hear the distant laughing
fleeting away.
Listening to this album is just like waking up from a dream.
We ask ourselves the question whether the lyrics are really
so full of secrets and mystery or is this just an illusion,
and are they merely dealing with the small problems and
occurrences of everyday life?
