about

The latest single from bass player / composer Benedikt Wieland, titled Places, is a tribute to the neighbourhood of Neukölln (Berlin), where the artist currently resides. The composition is the latest part of an ongoing series of explorations and experiments with bass-centric music, which Wieland began working on, and releasing, back in 2022.. The piece features the gorgeous, sweeping string arrangements of violinist Tobias Preisig.
In the artist’s own words: My neighbourhood is full of contrasts. It can feel inviting and warm, but also cold-hearted and impervious. Misery and joy are woven together here. The summer explodes with color, but the winters are stark and grey. Sometimes you don’t want to face what’s out there, on days like that it can be hard to even leave the house. Other times, the pulsing life outside is just irresistible. On any given summer day, the Tempelhofer Feld, which is this old airport that is no longer in use, if full of people dancing, skating, and just hanging out.
