Denmark's versatile and prolific producer, Trentemoller, returns to SF with his full band to perform at one of SF's most beloved and historic venues! His fresh sounds and quality productions have given way to a new twist in
minimal techno with a nod towards indie rock; combining layered dynamics, distorted twang-guitars and synths alongside melodic voices that possess the perfect wide-range balance between minimal and maximal tech/electro house. Says Pitchfork media, "I can't think of any other producer who so deftly fuses minimal techno, big-room house, and
the itchy-scratchy fidgeting of IDM without sounding tokenistic. This is sultry, sexy music."
When his debut album ‘The Last Resort’ was released in 2006, Anders Trentemøller had already established his name as one of the greatest talents of electronic music. ‘The Last Resort’ was an effort to expand his horizon and show the world another side of his musical personality. The 13 instrumental tracks together form a musical story, almost like the soundtrack of a movie. The album struck a chord with new audiences
all around the world and quickly became a international hit, earning a number of music awards as well as the ‘album of the year' in numerous magazines.
2007 followed two vocal singles taken from the album: ‘Always Something Better’ (featuring Richard Davis) and ‘Moan’ (with Danish singer Ane Trolle). The same year, the double album ‘The Trentemøller Chronicles’ was released, which contained Anders‘ personal selection of his best songs which were not included in the debut album ‚and includes remixes for artists like Röyksopp, The Knife and Moby.
Trentemøller’s remix for the first single of the new Depeche Mode album ‘Sounds Of The Universe’ and ‘Wrong’ was released on the official remix EP in 2009. The Trentemøller remix for Franz Ferdinand‘s ‚No You Girls‘
also released in 2009 was nominated for a US Grammy award. Later that year, he presented his first mix compilation on the new label ‘hfn music’. ‘Harbour Boat Trips 01- Copenhagen’ consisted of a collection of his
personal favorites from the past four decades.
Meanwhile, 'Into the Great Wide Yonder,' the follow up album of 2010 revealed him as an artist willing to take risks, find inspiration in new places and move beyond the extraoridnary visual effects designed and built by Henrik Vibskov and crew. Remarks, Trentemøller: ‘Of course I didn’t want to make the same record twice. That would have been boring.’ Instead he just started to collect new ideas, without thinking too much about the direction the music would take him: ‘The only thing I knew was that I’d want the music to be more organic, warm and not typical electronic sounding‘.
