"MUTANTEN"
Bouncing Bullets
©2010 by Fahling Music (BMI, GEMA).

 

"INTERIOR VIEW" (3'06)

 

"MUTANTEN" ACTION/THRILLER/MID-TEMPO HEAVY-ROCK; haunting riff in low-register piano and eerily sneaky strings complement a rhythmic basis which moves from DJ-beats to thrash guitar mayhem - with powerful, dramatic results. Think James Newton Howard's The Village meets Nine Inch Nails.

 

"BOUNCING BULLET BEAT" (2'36)

"MUTANTEN" ACTION/COMEDY/UP-TEMPO FUNK; catchy guitar hook over this super funky Summer Groover. Vintage 70s funk-bass-line, think Dee-lite bounciness.

 

"RHODOS" (4'35)


"MUTANTEN" DOCU/ATHMOSPHERIC; cruising down a highway in a vintage car enjoying the lightness of being. Morphing major chord pads trade places over Fender Rhodes riffs and a happy beat.

"SCULPTED PEARLS" (4'00)

 

"MUTANTEN" DOCU/AMBIENT; layers of athmospheric sound design embeds catchy piano riffs. Playful delays conjure up traces of U2 and Brian Eno which get a more dramatic edge with a contemplative piano theme and forward going beats. The overall feel of this piece hints at the way Moby would incorporate major tonalities and get away with it with aplomb.

 

"MUTANTEN" (3'33)

"MUTANTEN" ACTION/THRILLER/UP-TEMPO POP-ROCK; driving beats arrangement complements the virulent guitar riff - Dust Brothers meet INXS with a twist of Dark City.

 

"SUNRISE ORANGE" (6'23)

 

"MUTANTEN DRAMA/DOCU/AMBIENT; minimalist development of percussion, bass and Wurlitzer interplay; with a captivatingly thoughtful string arrangement that draws the listener into the music.

 

"VOCO" (3'54)

"MUTANTEN" DRAMA/SLOW CHORALE; a beautiful, melodic duett between piano and steel string guitar nesting on a bed of strings, electronic percussion and sound design.

 

"SAUCER WITH FINS" (3'00)

"MUTANTEN" SCI-FI/THRILLER/MID-TEMPO POP-ROCK; plenty of sound design, another virulent guitar theme (a la The Edge) and driving ThieveryCorporationISH beat arrangement give this song its name: "Saucer With Fins"

 

"HÄNDE" (4'16)

 

"MUTANTEN" UP-TEMPO FUNK/SUMMER GROOVE; morphing, arpeggiating synth riffs team up with driving staccato cellos and basses and aggressive grooves to accompany this piece of spoken word to a climactic effect.

 

"JUSTICE OVER UNITY" (4'04)

 

"MUTANTEN" UP-TEMPO ELECTRO FUNK/SUMMER GROOVE; the party is switching gears with this super bouncy electro beat that keeps on adding elements in classic funk instruments - with a tiny twist of spacey sound design.

"BAUSTELLE" (4'56)

"MUTANTEN" DOCU/ATHMOSPHERIC; plenty of sound design elements, with original foley sounds, nurture a minimalistically thematic development of a xylophone line. Baustelle is German for construction site: Just a clue for the foley sounds.



"THORAX" (4'56)


"MUTANTEN" DOCU/ROMANTIC COMEDY/UP-BEAT DANCE; upbeat dance track with great theme/riff in the bass and left hand piano - in the style of Moby and Fat Boy Slim.

 

"CHAPEL PARTY" (4'00)


"MUTANTEN" COMEDY/DRAMA/HIP HOP; almost 70's in style, if it wasn't for the modern Hip Hop beat. Hip, catchy horn lines mingle with a string quartet.

 

"WARPED WASPS" (3'04)


"MUTANTEN" SCI-FI/DRAMA/EXPERIMENTAL; an experiment of "sound alienation", in other words, of taking only sounds that have been messed with by the use of filters and arpeggiators - and to therefore create a sound design based track.
