Pre-order the album
Schatterau’s third album, ‘Wir gingen durch leere Stunden’ (We went through empty hours), sees the German duo blossoms with beauty and sophistication through a broad creative language.
This opus, presented in the form of vivid auditory tableaux vivants, explores the topography of memory as a landscape in constant motion—full of loops, feedbacks, and mirage-like distortions. Sounds climbing like vines over old walls, concealing details only to reveal new ones. Some pieces feel like fragments of a dream whose origin has vanished, others like displaced echoes of a day long gone.
Memories create paths that only become visible in retrospect—detours that somehow always lead back to oneself. Each track draws the listener into a different recollection, as if opening an old door. Inside, time behaves strangely: it jumps, stretches, and repeats.
‘Wir gingen durch leere Stunden’ ultimately presents Schatterau at their most experimental, complex and measured extremes, channelling ambiguous human emotional resonance ranging from melancholy to pure ecstasy.
