"Brockmann/Bargmann - Zeit
Modernen Krautrock zelebrieren Franz Bargmann und Timm Brockmann auch auf ihrem neuen Output „Zeit“, das sich klanglich sehr gut an das bisher veröffentlichte Material anpasst, aber trotzdem neue Facetten des Berliner Duos präsentiert. Die beiden haben sich im Laufe ihrer Karriere musikalisch schon im Windschatten von Legenden wie Michael Rother, den Tiger Lillies und den Einstürzenden Neubauten bewegt und die Einflüsse all dieser Größen zu ihrem gemeinsamen Projekt getragen. Sanfte, an Jean-Michel Jarre erinnernde Elektronik vermischt sich mit Gitarrenklängen und wabernden Synthies und sorgen für eine besonders kreative Atmosphäre, die rein instrumental vermittelt wird. „Zeit“ bewegt sich in extraterrestrischen Klangsphären, die ein Maximum an Experimentierfreudigkeit und viel Mut zu Neuem vermitteln. Ein spannendes Hörvergnügen. 7/10 Kronen"

"The Berlin duo Brockmann // Bargmann are, after having released two albums on the renowned Bureau B label, continuing their journey with ‘Zeit’. The new album will be released by 8MM Musik.

Their debut ‘Licht’ was a mix of various styles and approaches. This time around, the two sound scientists (and founding members of Krautrock guerillas Camera) are focusing on organic and multi-layered ambient. The album has been recorded live, using instruments like piano, electric guitar and analogue synthesizers. No drum machines have been used on the new material, instead, shakers and even hands were chosen as the source of rhythm that is supporting the repetitive and softly floating instrumental tracks.

The love of Brockmann // Bargmann for experimental approaches that go beyond the traditional structures of pop music is very apparent on ‘Zeit’. The twelve pieces are rooted in a drifting, ethereal feel that has been perfectly translated by the sophisticated use of microphones in the studio, as well as moving the silence between the notes a little bit closer to the limelight. The result is a gripping, contemplative album that is, even though experimental, never far away from emotion accessible to all of us.

After leaving Camera, Timm Brockmann has been active in the recording studio as the personal sound engineer of British band The Tiger Lillies. He also worked together with Einstürzende Neubauten and many more. Franz Bargmann is part of krautrock legend Michael Rother’s (Neu!) live line-up and frequently collaborates with Thorsten Quaeschning (Tangerine Dream).

The cover art has yet again been handled by Ignacio Uriarte, who is internationally known for his minimalist work.

‘Zeit’ by Brockmann // Bargmann will be available 4th November via 8MM Musik."
