about

Medicine is the first single of the solo concept work from Berlin based Swiss / German bass experimentalist, improviser, and composer Benedikt Wieland. It also marks the beginning of a release series, which is a culmination of a three year-long research process into the notion of subverting traditional approaches and sound aesthetics associated with the electric bass. In other words, this work is based on a language that was specifically developed for this instrument, where, in the words of
the artist: “the bass guitar becomes an orchestra, and is no longer bound to its traditional role as the foundation for harmony and rhythm.” Lukasz Polowczyk, the voice of AINT ABOUT ME, can be heard on Medicine, supported by saxophone player Simon Spiess. Throughout the process, Wieland checked in with two of his production advisers: film composer Alexandre J. Maurer and Norwegian electronica artist Jan Bang. Medicine can be best described as an inter-dimensional portal leading into the tessellated space underpinning our reality.
