ARCHIVE

KÖHN is Jürgen De Blonde who is not using Modular Synthesis per se although his music has always relied on synthesis… We have known each other for more than 20 years and I had the great pleasure to release some of his music on my defunct BiP_HOp label, back in the early 2000s, when I was considering him to be one of the most interesting electronicist in Europe alongside Fennesz and Frank Bretschneider…

Jürgen has released on KRAAK, Western Vinyl, Deep Distance, Sonic Meditations and brings an original approach to sound experimenting with soundscapes, electronica, and collaborations with musicians from different backgrounds. Still active today he is at the forefront of the experimental scene in Belgium and was among the lucky few to be allowed to work on the mythical EMS Synthi 100 Synthesizer @ I.P.E.M. (Institute for Psychoacoustics and Electronic Music) and we feel lucky to share such works.
