Deutsche Grammophon

 

I've been a fan of the Deutsche Grammophon label for a long time, ever since I got this Steve Reich box set back in the early 80s in college.


I've collected quite a few DG recordings over the years. Over the last 5 years or so I've noticed them branching out and releasing music by a wider variety of artists and music that isn't strictly classical. From Moby to Christian Löffler to Olafur Arnalds to Brian Eno to Clark, the music is surprising for DG but also seems to fit well. After a lot of listening to Parallels by Christian Löffler, I decided to do a mix of recent DG favs. I hope you enjoy it.

Cheers!

Provides an innovative fusion of styles exclusively from the electronic realm with the power and versatility of the symphonic. The proof is definitely in the pudding for this one. Your brain may be asked to think more in this mix compared to its neighbors. Many of the selections are engaging and you will not come away feeling like you've wasted your time, rather ennobled at what musical nutrients are formed when opposing styles are fused.
