"If we assume that the concept for Arash Safaian's album uberBach - which won the ECHO Klassik Award 2017 in the ""Classical Music without Borders"" category - was to compose music in which you could feel Bach without Bach being ""there"", then the release of Mondholz: Remixes & Canons is the continuation of this concept. It contains two original tracks as well as two remixes by renowned electronic producer Hendrik Weber aka Pantha Du Prince - who smilingly claims that he was born with music in his cradle, as his parents played music all the time, even before he was born - in which Weber applies ""the rules of Pantha Du Prince"" to Safaian's music. Safaian says: ""For me, the poetry of this album is that the universal architecture of the canon is united with the principle of dance.""The two artists see this as a dream pairing: ""I simply felt that he had the same feelings towards Bach,"" Safaian explains about Weber. ""For me, Black Noise is one of the best electronic albums ever; I hear an encrypted polyphony in his music, the origin of which comes from nature. No one else came into question for the collaboration on my album.""The result is a flawless combination of Bach's revolutionary style with Safaian's extraordinary reinterpretation of the original work - performed by Sebastian Knauer, Pascal Schumacher (vibraphone) and the Zurich Chamber Orchestra - rounded off by the electronic compositional artistry of Pantha Du Prince."
