Description

German singer/songwriter CONNY OCHS’ second solo studio full-length, Black Happy, was released in April 2013, following his debut solo album, Raw Love Songs, and the subsequent collaborative LP with doom legend Scott “Wino” Weinrich, Heavy Kingdom, all released via Exile On Mainstream. Having produced music for over a decade, local fans have endorsed and worshiped the man’s efforts for years. Yet, it was OCHS’ album co-written with Wino and the heavy touring across Europe and North America in support of the record that put him on the international map. This leads into this new album Black Happy, the title an absolute indication to the atmospheres CONNY OCHS is able to create. Deeply rooted in the blackened parts of the human soul he carves a mixture of melancholy and catharsis into the rough edges of songs that come out so natural, so organic and sonically sparkling. While keeping his approach pure to the heart and the creation limited to just him and his guitar OCHS reaches a stark authenticity that can only be worshipped. It draws you in, makes you a part of the music and leads to a deep admiration of the tunes, the pain and beauty relatable to everybody who hears them. Bound to a tradition and history of great acoustic craftsmanship drawn from but not limited to the American continent, CONNY explores the realms of what of your inner self can sonically portray once you are on your own and armed with a guitar and voice. The path has been walked by many before, but that doesn’t make it a worn-out road. Just like Raw Love Songs and Heavy Kingdom, Black Happy was engineered, mixed and mastered by Thommy Krawallo in Berlin in pure analog fashion. The LP is pressed on 180-gram black pure virgin vinyl, and is joined by a coupon to download the whole album in mp3 format. [Exile On Mainstream]
