STEMESEDER/LILLINGER - ANTUMBRA

!! new album UMBRA III out on Intakt (1/2025) !!

„It’s always a pleasure listening to music conceived and produced by entities whose capabilities clearly transcend those possessed by human beings.“ – fan quote on bandcamp


STEMESEDER LILLINGER are an electro-acoustic field of tension. Floating freely and without genre designations, the producer duo of Elias Stemeseder (keyboard, synth, harpsichord, piano,) and Christian Lillinger (drums, percussion, electronics,) inhabits myriad border regions of contemporary music, focusing on sonic, compositional and thematic multidimensionality. 
 
With ANTUMBRA, the award-winning artists continue to expand their body of work. Plucked, percussive and electronic instruments, references to sample culture, serialism and folk musics imbue ANTUMBRA with its enormous richness of color, sonic saturation and utopian vision. Both improvising virtuosi embrace the immediate, remaining true to the idea of avant-garde; the results of which never fail to exhilarate. 
 
Their January 2025 release UMBRA III (Intakt Records, Intakt CD 432), is the inspiring result of a live concert at the Saalfelden Jazz Festival, featuring the outstanding pianist Craig Taborn. Previous iterations of the UMBRA series showcase collaborations with the similarly brilliant Brandon Seabrook, DoYeon Kim, Tim Lefebvre, Peter Evans, and Russel Hall. 
 
“Antumbra is a masterwork that shows their increasing ambition and sophistication.” – The WIRE
