Denseland: Disco Dictionary

After Denseland's two last releases Chunk (Mosz 2009) and Like, Likes, Like (m=minimal 2013) Denseland’s new album Disco Dictionary straddles the borders between funk and post punk, experimental avant-garde and fractured down tempo techno, electronica and minimalist industrial. Formed in 2008 by long time Berlin musician's bassist Hannes Strobl, percussionist Hanno Leichtmann and avant-garde vocalist David Moss, Denseland as a three headed ensemble jumps genres, timbres and times.
