Monolake, the Berlin-based duo of Robert Henke and Gerhard Behles, bridges
minimal dub-techno music and abstract digital soundsculpting (achieving
symphonic effects with the manipulation of field recordings).
The single Cyan (1994) and the EPs Magenta (1996) and
Lantau.Macao (1997), partially collected on
HongKong (Chain Reaction, 1997), displayed a manic attention to
detail and an uncanny sense of dynamics.
The project evolved via Interstate (1999),
the EP Gobi: The Desert (1999),
Gravity (2000) and Cinemascope (2001), not to mention the EPs
Tangent (1999),
Stratosphere Ice (2000),
Fragile.Static (2000),
Bicom.Remotable. Cut (2001),
Ionized Ping Frost (2001),
Linear.Atomium.Reminiscense (2003).
Robert Henke also recorded under his own name
Piercing Music (Imbalance, 1994),
Helical Scan (Chain Reaction, 1997),
Floating.Point (Imbalance, 1997),
Signal to Noise (Imbalance, 2004).
Momentum (Monolake, 2003) delivered the shower of echoes of
Cern and Atomium, indulged in the
glitchy dissonance of Tetris, painted the alien soundscapes of
Linear and White II.
But overall is was a friendlier and less ambitious recording.
That trend continued on the more lively
Polygon_Cities (Imbalance Computer Music, 2005).
