ART NOIR is a project of Jan Weber, the film composer and former member of IMPRESSIONS OF WINTER. Succeeding the debut ‘Flügel’ and a co-production with Carlos Perón, the new record, called ‘Silent Green´, opens up to a new musical dimension.
The opening song, called ‘Dark Temple’, evokes memories of masterpieces by LUSTMORD and AH CAMA SOTZ. Dark Ambient-collages similar to DELERIUM and RAISON D´ETRE (´Take the blue pill´) are lighted up by journeys into different worlds of sound. “Heavenly Voices” (‘Silent Green’, ‘Brother of sleep’) and “Burlesque” (‘Mental’) are only two examples for that.
ART NOIR connects melancholic melodies to brute Industrial sounds: the powerful and marching music meets the tender voice of Nadine Stelzer (former member of IN STRICT CONFIDENCE). Her vocals contrast with the music and give it a warm and comfortable note.
The record develops a unique atmosphere by connecting music and vocals in this way. It takes the listener to new, unknown places. Listening to this record is like watching a good film: Every time you replay it, you will discover new details.
‘Silent Green’ is released on the 12th of June 2009 in an environmentally-friendly way, as the digipak is made of recycled paper and plastic. It can be purchased at the label Danse Macabre. The songs can also be downloaded at the site of Germany’s first ‘dark’ netlabel afmusic.

The whole interview:
-So you started afmusic in 2006; where are you based? And did you work in music before starting it, perhaps in the conventional music industry?
afmusic started as A&F Music Management in the late 2003 beside my own webradio (www.darkerradio.de). The intention was to help and promote well unknown bands to get more professional. I figured out the music business has changed in the end of the 90s. But my point of view wasn’t influenced of the so called ‘music business’, because I’m a technical and computer freak. Until the start of this two projects I was more a fan than someones who’s in the music business. I just had some expierences in distributing music with a small mailorder in the mid of the 90s.
We re-released now the the netsingle “Days” by Curious, which was published in cooperation with Sonorium on 10/28/08, under a Creative Commons by-nc-sa license. Now therefore are both songs “Days” and “J.Mary” totally free of charge and legally downloadable worldwide in the net. Read the rest of this entry »
