{"product_id":"soar-soar","title":"Soar – Soar","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eEfficient Space \/ Australia \/ 2025\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReintroducing Soar — the alias of Christian Aebi, serial DIY taper and one-man orchestra from Langenthal, a fog-shrouded town in the Swiss provinces. Krautophobia, ambient lo-fi agriculture, analogue soul balm and slowspeed psych gelati-blitz cardboard pop only gesture towards the sound world he coaxed from his broken Tascam four-track recorder, in attics, churches, junkyards and at the kitchen table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe spark for Soar was likely time and space, somewhere in the autumn of 1994. Armed with a cable salad of Sixties guitar\/bass, fairground drums, mould-speckled organs and toy instruments, Aebi coaxed five albums, an unverified run of 25 cassettes, and a handful of gigs. Mostly issued through Zurich label Corazoo, the records arrived in hand-pasted sleeves, rough-cut reproductions of his teddy bear-fixated artwork that carried the same imperfect immediacy as the music. With Rudi Steiner, performances in galleries, clubs and halls bent into live sound-image happenings — part installation, part film, part flea-market-instrument theatre — invariably leaving the house engineers bewildered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the time of his untimely death in 2021, Aebi remained a village secret, his music passed quietly between friends and local ears. Now, Swiss graphic designer and Ghost Riders compiler Ivan Liechti has pieced together a portrait from the afterglow, gathering tangled audio formats, paintings, illustrations, photographs and notebooks with his family, former label and peers. What emerges is a first glimpse of Soar’s intimate cosmos — brushing against Füxa, Spectrum, Dump, Stereolab and King Crimson, but orbiting a dimension entirely his own.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 350px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3140906974\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=333333\/minimal=true\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/efficientspace.bandcamp.com\/album\/soar\"\u003eSoar by Soar\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"ElMuelle1931","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57463535468888,"sku":"ES048","price":27.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0538\/4486\/9300\/files\/soar-soar-6065480.jpg?v=1781341871","url":"https:\/\/www.elmuelle1931.com\/products\/soar-soar","provider":"ElMuelle1931","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
