Felsmann + Tiley

Formed around Dominik Felsmann and Patrick Tiley, Felsmann + Tiley, from Germany, is a duo positioned between electronic music, neoclassicism and atmospheric pop, with a concise writing that privileges melodies, voices and textures. Their aesthetic rests on minimalist synths, clean arrangements and a strong sensitivity to imagery, the duo working in short formats where cinematic tension, direct emotion and the heritage of contemporary composition intersect. Felsmann + Tiley has also drawn attention for its 'Reinterpretations' series, notably around tracks by M83, Muse, Ry X or Moby, a body of work that illuminates their way of transforming existing songs into more contemplative and tightened pieces. Their journey sits both in the field of authorial electronic music and in that of hybrid projects published on labels such as Mute Records and Deutsche Grammophon. Under the name Felsmann + Tiley, the duo thus alternates original compositions and reinterpretations, maintaining a sober line where electronics dialog with orchestral elements and an almost chamber-music approach to sound texture.
