Release Date: 2014
Origin: Germany
Notes: With "Beautyfear" the German electronic musician Marsen Jules (CCO, 12k, Kompakt) delivers one of his most outstanding albums so far. Mastered by no one else than 12K-labelboss Taylor Deupree and with a coverpicture taken by the highly acclaimed photographer Erik Madigan Heck from NYC, the best conditions are laid for a lasting experience of abstract musical poetry and touching soundscapeism.
Jules
has never been this dense, subtile and fragile before. All twelve
tracks on „Beautyfear“ were created during a week stay in a
theatre workspace on one of the hills of Lisbon. The panoramic view
over the dusty city in spring seemed to have been the perfect
surrounding for this cloudy soundscapes, which at some points remind
of Angelo Bandalamentis‘ work for David Lynch‘s "Mullholland
Drive". „It‘s an album on the fragility of beauty“, as
Jules describes briefly. Music that can neither be described as
ambient music or experimental sound art, but more likely delivers a
poetic approach to music, live and sound itself. With „Beautyfear“
Marsen Jules makes a great start into 2014 and with the already
announced cooperation with Swedish filmmaker Anders Weberg and an
upcoming release of his works from a residence at the legendary GRM
studios in Paris, one should definitely keep an eye on what is coming
next.

The vinyl is virtually flawless, bright and shiny. A very minor, barely visible scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches. The disc should play with no audible noise. The label is bright, clean and unmarked. Sleeves will be near new condition. Virtually no wear to faces, edges or corners.
Excellent [ EX ] Record surfaces are bright and clean but may have a few light paper scuffs or superficial surface marks that do not affect play. The record has obviously been played, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light blemish. Sleeve may have some very minor wear to faces, edges or corners of covers.
Very Good [ VG ] A well cared for used record. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have scuffs or light scratches. May have some very light surface noise or isolated crackles and pops. Labels may be marked lightly. Sleeve may have some ring wear, moderate wear to edges and corners, light creases or stress lines, and other minor defects.
Good [ G ] Record shows visible signs of wear. Some surface noise may be audible. Groove wear may be noticeable, as will some scratches that may cause clicks or pops. Labels may be marked. Sleeve will have heavier ring wear, edge wear and corner damage and some discoloration.
Fair [ F ] Likely to be lots of minor scratches and scuffs with surface noise audible. Potential label marks and damage. Sleeve will have noticeable edge and ring wear and feature some tears, marks and discolouration.
Poor [ P ] Scratched, scuffed and generally well worn with surface noise audible. Sleeve will have heavy ring and edge wear and likely tears, marks and damage. We will endeavour not to sell vinyl in this condition unless it is extremely rare and can be professionally cleaned and salvaged or where the cover is in good enough condition to warrant purchasing for the cover alone.
