Christian Fennesz, AKA Fennesz, releases his first album in about five years since his incredibly moving masterpiece "Bätsch" (2014). Fennesz, who has continued to innovate electronic music, once again breaks new ground!

Fennesz, aka Christian Fennesz, releases his first new album in five years since his monumentally moving masterpiece "Beche" (2014). With his seventh album "Agoura" (Portuguese for "now"; also meaning "square" or "market" in ancient Greek), released by the UK label Touch, Fennesz has once again pioneered new territory in digital music. This is everything Fennesz is. Glitch noise, ambient drones, boldly processed guitars, radicalism, romanticism, sentimentalism, popness... They are boldly and delicately mixed and edited with an unparalleled sense of taste and balance, constructing an overwhelmingly beautiful sound world. Particles of extremely pure sound swirl and intertwine with modulated guitars, creating a soundscape that no one has ever heard before. An indescribable emotion surges over you.
