\----
With 'BRONTO', The Hidden Cameras deliver an album that pushes the boundaries of pop. Joel Gibb, the visionary mind behind the legendary music project, dedicates an unconventional meta-dance-pop album to his adopted hometown of Berlin - and collaborates with electronic heavyweights such as Pet Shop Boys and Vince Clarke.
With his seventh studio album 'BRONTO', Joel Gibb follows in the footsteps of pioneers such as Lou Reed and David Bowie and releases an album inspired by Berlin but recorded almost exclusively in his second adopted home of Munich. The Canadian has lived in Berlin for over 15 years - and this has by no means left his sound untouched. After folk and country, Gibb has worked with Munich-based collaborator Nicolas Sierig (Joasihno) to create BRONTO, an unconventional electronic meta-dance-pop album.
On BRONTO, which means “thunder” in Greek, Gibb puts the folk guitar aside and, in the best disco tradition, uses the studio as an instrument in which he creates highly emotional, dazzling worlds of sound. Instead of hyper-reflective linguistic acrobatics, on BRONTO Gibb deliberately plays with common phrases and questions which you might have heard a hundred times – but not like this: Thanks to his unique approach to songwriting, Gibb manages to tell stories that are still wonderfully strange and touching at the same time.
Presented by Rough Trade Europe.
