[.. FROST, is slowly covering. Laughing about that "summer". The fall seems to become a myth of another worlds history. Magnetic fields are moving. Seasons are fusioning. We feel that. After "Ceci N'est Pas Beaux Art" (LEGO203; a modern band project) we present you music from a band-player. Michael Hoffmann who usually acts as drummer, "the Metronoman" in several bands and projects. After his last collaboration with Philipp Weigl (Autoplate; APL048)
Michael transports his knowledge and experiences from all his jams and studio works as a drummer and producer into a solo "LP" for the first time. The result is a sound-universe conditioned by the dynamics between icy pads, cryptic vocal and field-recording-fragments on the one hand and jazzy keys, funky pitched synths, strings and guitars floating above complex beat structures on the other.
Enough words ... Tune in if your heart is still beating! ..] LEGOEGO

Michael Hoffmann about FROST: "In 2002 I produced some Loops & Tracks for my band COMFORT ZONE (NuJazz, Electronica). Producing electronic music was a totally new experience for me. I had to get confidend with the different styles of this kind of music. At this time I learned a lot about modern electronic music and its production process. As a drummer
I played already a quantity of different styles over the years, but this was really new ...a great challenge! Later this knowledge flew into the production of my first own album "FROST". This album should not represent a special kind of electronica, but rather only reflects my own visibility manner on Musica Electronica."
