Yonderboi - Splendid Isolation
The crow is a symbol for wisdom and prophecies. Because crows eat
cadaver, they sometimes also symbolize the malice and all the bad
things in themselves. They wait for death of the hanged to then pick pieces
of meat from their body. A hopeless image. Exactly here Yonderboi´s new
work begins. A sad children's choir stands on an empty field under pitch-black
deep hanging rain clouds ready between a murder of crows on the way to hell.
This is the first sombre dreadful picture which 24-year-old artist László Fogarasi produces at the beginning of his album which is immediately a small resignation from his own musical past. The Film Noire has retired. The second album rises more and more into something absolutely unexpected... Having exchanged the forests of Somogy county for the Budapest, his new record "Splendid Isolation" is more mature and more urban than the amazing first album "Shallow and Profound". While his first album was made intuitively and 'just happened', a great deal of thought has gone into his second record.
It is especially influenced by an unexpected source: the art-house films Yonderboi has been watching the last couple of years. Like a good movie, "Splendid Isolation" tells a many-layered story that builds up to a trippy ending. Structure, build up and portions of suspense have been considered consciously. And, as in a film, the secret is not revealed until the very end. Yonderboi's Hungarian background greatly affects his music. Travelling Europe and the US has made this even more apparent. He finds western people more relaxed, less in need of asking big questions and more straightforward in their approach to life. In Eastern Europe life is never clear cut. The contrast between the cold winters and hot summers typical of the region is reflected in the conflicting emotions of the people. Life is bitter sweet, joy is accompanied by tears.

Quality has always been capitalised in the house of Mole. And quality is an obligation! “Euphonic Perspectives” is a terrific track selection, full of emotion and atmosphere – 18 handpicked tracks by outstanding artists presenting an all-embracing exhibition of future Mole releases – defining
the recent status quo of advanced electronic music, giving the listener a feeling of complete satisfaction. The musical bandwidth on this CD is amazingly wide.

The title “Euphonic Perspectives” is the name of the game!18 artists are opening these perspectives of euphony for us in an impressive and easy going way, presenting veritable sound pearls.

This CD starts off with “Que Sera” by Wax Tailor who is going to convince everybody soon with his album “Tales of the Forgotten Melodies” that is build around Hip Hop and Downtempo. The enthusiastically admired Mole act Yonderboi is bringing us a breeze of Panonian melancholy with a discreet Rock attitude in their wonderful „Were You Thinking of Me?“ – in complete contrast to synthie-electro-infected “Freeze” by Alphawezen or “Nobody´s Dean”,Minus 8´s synthie-pop-homage to Hollywood legend James Dean.

This is exactly the thing “Euphonic Perspectives” is standing for: Exciting contrasts that melt into a perfect symbiosis because of the harmony and the high standard of sound aesthetic inhering in every single track. Artists such as Airmate, Nagra, Moon, Q-Point, Lemongrass, Sandboy feat.
