The brothers Sebastian and Daniel grew up during critical times – back in the 1980s when the former GDR was slowly starting to dissolve – in the far east of Berlin. The newly built prefab estates that marked this area were named with different types. Q3A was short for “Querwandtyp Nr. 3, Variante A“ (Cross-Wall Construction).
Here, Sebastian and Daniel practiced cello and piano from an early age. In search for a shared musical language, the longtime-collaboration CEEYS was born out of “violoncelle“ and “keys.“
Recorded and mixed at their Klingenthal studio, the EP is a first in more than one sense: using a cello from Klingenthal and handmade synthesizers from Erlbach, the A-side marks Sebastian’s first solo release. Daniel, on the B-side, is playing his restored childhood upright, combining it with a russian altered, organic drone synthesizer.

thought Im done for now with ambient but this has really nice atmosphere. dont really know what it is, but this gives me a little similar vibes than the black metal band afsky - old, grounded, despaired, faded, romantic and film grained k9

Facture has released so many good albums over the years, and this one is my favorite. The music is moving without being pushy while being ephemeral enough to enable me to relate to it however i need to. bartholomew_cubbins
