Limited to 500 copies. Catalog Number: STUMM513 Color: Black Format: LP UPC: 5400863178550 Tet 41 is the latest record by modular synthesist and Berghain resident JakoJako (Sibel Kocer), marking her album debut for Mute. Recorded during a trip to Vietnam and bookended by field recordings from Tet Lunar New Year celebrations, the album is illuminated by references to Kocer's heritage. The melodic palette breaks away from traditional Western scales, drawing instead from the tonal intricacies of the Vietnamese language, inspired by overheard conversations. The album and track titles further honour the vibrant Tet festivities, shrines, and landmarks she encountered during her travels. This album is, in many ways, a distillation of ideas she has been exploring for years. Tapping into a deep understanding of machine-based music, crafted with a minimalist setup consisting of a Eurorack and Waldorf Iridium Core, Tet 41 reflects on notions of rebirth, and the pursuit of a sonic core. From this simplicity emerge some of her most expansive, unworldly compositions to date.
