VA - Variierende Töne Vol.II (2025)

Descending from the first volume, Variierende Töne vol.II retraces the essential threads of the label, this time through two parallel perspectives: membranes + machines. A continuity of path, where past and future blur into new readings, into sounds that move between repose and tension, between presence and absence.

The work is divided into two movements. Side A: an immersion in organic matter—field recordings, acoustic research, surfaces shaped by Hanna Maria & Mattia Onori, Marco Ragni & Leonardo Pucci, and Adhémar. Side B: a shift into synthetic terrains—constructed resonances by Refracted, Rachel Lyn, and Ab Uno, where the machines dictate their own language.

For Melantónia, Variierende Töne becomes an open key: music that offers silence yet unsettles it, that restores and at the same time disrupts. Sounds that can adore the sunset, inhabit the sunrise, and return as primordial vibrations in perpetual transformation.
