Hematic Sunsets is an alias (an anagram
to be exact) for German Soundartist
Asmus Tietchens from Hamburg. Tietchens
is a self taught artist with more than
50 LP and CD releases on numerous labels
(Nurse With WoundÆs United Dairies, Sky
Records, the Mille Plateaux sub-label
Ritornell, Staalplaat, Selektion, recent
albums on Richard ChartierÆs Line label
and a massive reissue series on Die
Stadt, to name but a few). His solo
works are mainly concerned with the
manipulation of concrete sounds and
(most recently) pure sine waves (on his
Mengen series) and their placement
(assemblage?) in time and space.

While his solo efforts are often austere
formal works (yet never lacking a
twisted humour),Hematic Sunsets is a
different beast altogether. Reminiscent
of his Sky-era attempts with rhythm and
melody, the Aroma Club series is
Tietchens warped, almost parodic (per)
version of lounge music. Each record of
the series is based on the sounds and
rhythms of one particular (preferredly
cheap) organ/keyboard, usually a Yamaha
product (this time itÆs the PSR 36).
While the last Club LP was recorded with
several guests (Felix Kubin, Michael
Rother...) and the 2007 X-mas 7ô was a
collaboration with long-time ôproducerô
Okko Bekker, ôAroma Club Paradoxô is
another solo effort (collaborating with
several fictitious anagrams/characters
though).

The result is a timeless and completely
unique take on muzak using cheap
keyboard sounds usually associated to
drunk wedding bands or your
grandmotherÆs home organ family music.
Tietchens elaborately transforms the
cheesy associations into cold,
bloodless, almost unhuman pop tunes
totally lacking the sensationalism and
pseudo-fervour of most music, especially
modern pop music.
