Info
Der Assistent returns with Ultramarin, a sun-bleached suite of soft-focus pop, Balearic grooves and late-night yacht vibes that drifts between languages, moods and reference points, gently surreal and quietly melancholic.
Following the tropical haze of its predecessor, Amnesie am Amazonas, his third album shifts its focus: classic late-eighties digital pianos, downbeat grooves and flashes of dub reggae intertwine with understated soprano and alto saxophone lines, hovering between lounge melancholy and late-night jazz.
The laid-back opener “Wenn der Scirocco weht” pays tribute to Japanese lovers rock, while the dub-inflected, downbeat title track celebrates the colour blue in French, English, Italian and German, drawing on Situationist slogans and Yves Klein’s notion of the “invisibly visible”. The single “Mann am Telefon” ventures into hazy yacht pop and lo-fi soul, gradually unfolding into an instrumental outro that recalls the early synth romanticism of Vangelis.
