Alle Farben feat. Sam Gray: "Never Too Late"
Bildlich einzigartig und überragend zeigt sich diese Woche Alle Farben im Video zu „Never Too Late“. Zusammen mit Sam Gray wird mit diesem Song nicht nur der Sommer zurück gebracht, sondern auch düstere Gedanken vertrieben. Das Video bewegt sich dabei in harmonischen, blauen Farbtönen, welche nicht zu übertrieben und dennoch mehr als ausdrucksstark wirken. Die Tatsache, dass stets nur wenige Darsteller im Fokus stehen, verleiht deren Gestik und Mimik eine zusätzliche Tiefe, welche insbesondere mit der instrumentalen Seite des Songs perfekt abgestimmt sind und eine unglaubliche Bindung zwischen Video und Song zum Ausdruck bringt, sodass "Never Too Late" selbst eine neue Tiefe und Harmonisierung erhält. Ein Song, welcher definitiv Lebensfreude ausstrahlt.
„I beat my chest, 1-2-3, no no my fear can't hold me“
Live Circus
28.04.2017
Was sind die Bestandteile einer wirklich guten Zirkusvorstellung? Direktoren, Dompteure, Trapeze, Löwen und Schlangen gehören ganz bestimmt dazu. Selbst bunte Schaustellerwagen und rote Vorhänge kommen vielen in den Sinn, aber irgendetwas fehlt doch noch, oder? Genau – der passende Soundtrack! Und dieser kommt von keinem Geringeren als Alle Farben!
Getreu dem Motto seiner erfolgreichen 6h Sessions und der hierzulande etablierten Live Circus Gigs hat der DJ nach den Superhits "She Moves" (2014), "Supergirl" (2015), "Please Tell Rosie" und "Bad Ideas" (beide 2016) nun eine neuartige, noch persönlichere Message an seine Fans: Die Alle Farben Live Circus Compilation! Eine 39 Song starke Compilation, die den passenden Soundtrack zu den Live Gigs auf Platte bringt, kompiliert von Alle Farben selbst. Teil des Ganzen: der neue grosse Ohrwurm "Little Hollywood", der vom Hollywood des kleinen Mannes erzählt und seine eigene kleine Traumwelt entstehen lässt: "We're living in our own little Hollywood, we're washed up stars, everything's gon' be good!"
Whilst the video wall behind Frans Zimmer is flickering and the garish lights are
highlighting the dancing crowd only for a few seconds at a time – you just know when
you reached that certain point where your heartbeat is determined by the rhythm of his
sound. It’s truly impressive to watch Frans Zimmer a.k.a. Alle Farben (which is German
for “allcolours”) while he’s on stage. You can see the passion on his smiling face, when
he’s observing the crowd dancing in a shower of confetti and the only sign of exhaustion
is sweat dripping off his forehead. At times you may also find him totally focused behind
all thoseswitches and controls on stage, working meticulously on his compositions,
while there are thousands of people dancing right in front of him.
Alle Farben is originally based in Berlin and after years of travelling the world he is
anything but a newcomer. In early 2014, he released his first studio album
“Synesthesia”, which has generated a tremendous response in Germany and beyond
However, the success of his album did not diminish his passion for festivals and live
performances. Therefore, he still kept touring the world in 2015 to provide music lovers
with unforgettable nights and marvellous sunrises. Whether it’s New York City
Bangkok, Paris, Zurich, Beirut or Kuala Lumpur – Alle Farben is welcomed throughout
the world.
The DJ with a penchant for painting has been a well-established act for ten years now. In
Berlin itwas particularly his courage that left a residual impression on the club scene
when he first started. And it didn’t take long for everyone to realise that he was going
places. Alle Farben loves to experiment and he simply doesn’t accept the rigid
boundaries of music genres. In his performances there are all kinds of elements
involved: live musicians with hints of classical or swing music, lingering between techno,
minimal and house. To him it has never been a contradiction to play Tchaikovsky at a
festival or at the club – if anything it was a welcome challenge. His DJ sets always follow
a concept, a dramatic conception, always with an eye toward aesthetics. Alle Farben is
eager to present his melodies in a proper light, because as he says: When it comes to
perception, music is not so different from colours – the intensity determines the
emotions.
Alle Farben is genuine and original right out of Berlin-Kreuzberg. Therefore, his sound
naturally transports the specific characteristics and qualities of Berlin’s nightlife:
diverse, colourful, boundless and always walking this very thin line between melancholy
and euphoria. Only consequent that 2016 will also be an album year for his biography.
With “Music Is My Best Friend” the Berlin-based goes back to the next big impact and
expresses impressively in which ways he establishes as a DJ and also as a studio
musician. His passion and his best friend “Music” have led to fourteen great tracks that
are not onlygreat studio songs on one side, but will also led his audience to the max on
the other. Promised.
After the pre-up track “Remember Yesterday (feat. Perttu & Michael Schulte)” follows
“Please Tell Rosie (feat. YOUNOTUS)” on 15th April 2016. Shiny and glossy with a great
hook and perfectly fitting to the wording of the album: „Please Tell Rosie – I’m not gonna
come back, ’til September, ‘cause Music is my best friend“. It’s going straight into
direction - summer - and it starts now!
