Started around a decade ago, Overcloseness has been a long time coming. It is Colorist's debut album on paper, but already has a magnum opus feel to it. The beginnings of Colorist lay in the Cologne music community. Being small, it was always influenced by the art and the film scene. (In fact, the label Magazine originates from the same crossing point.) The large cast of guest appearances underlines how much Antonio de Luca and Caroline Kox are in the center of that Cologne community. On Overcloseness intimate pieces for one or two instruments alternate with dense choir anthems ("Embody") and tracks built from ultra intense fabrics that conjure up the mediative hardness of Tool ("Blood Markers"). Driven by the otherworldly voice of Koxi and a larger-than-life bass line by Antonio, the album culminates in the unforgettable "Touch Me." Oscillating between a bad migraine and cathartic hypnosis, Colorist have created a genre defying universe of an album. Also featuring Echo Ho.
