Press Info:
Veyl is pleased to welcome Marco Freivogel’s Prequel Tapes for an immense 8 song release, ‘The Golden Cage’. Completing an album cycle of themes and exploration which began with 2015’s ‘Inner Systems’, ‘The Golden Cage’ is perhaps Prequel Tapes’ most diverse and expansive work – utilising the artist’s own vocals for the first time and evolving his production and sound to new, uncharted dimensions.
Working off the trauma of his father’s suicide, ‘The Golden Cage’ was spawned from a hyper-realistic dream experience that revealed the artist’s path, catalysing new productions and techniques. The result is a striking work of unconventional electronics that journeys through rhythms, atmospheres and experimentations. A true narrative of a continuously challenging personal journey.
Beginning with the tension-building, free flow of ‘My Turn’, we then delve into grief and anger with ‘I Hate You’, which transforms into the pulsating tempos of ‘Stranger or Lover’. The glistening nostalgia of ‘Last Things’ marks the halfway point before grappling with the heavy introversion of ‘Alone’ and devious energy of ‘Mind Corner’. Nearing the end of our trip, ‘Without Remission’ uncovers the most dancefloor tuned piece, while finally the title track closes with an energy that will linger long after you’ve listened.
