Lights from the Inside Part 1 Gregor Tresher

Subtlety is not the first word used in connection with most DJs, but there is much more the métier of Germany's Gregor Tresher than simply playing records, as Lights From The Inside attest: Just as a painting or photograph appears to move if one stares at it long enough, with close listening the stratified grooves and melodies assembled on Gregor´s stunning third full-lenght artist album reveal an organic universe of shifting sound. Meticulous attention to the latter element—melody—was of utmost concern to the Frankfurt resident. Not obvious, eight-bar earworms that would quickly exhaust their welcome, but musical lines that could repeat, develop and intertwine in different patterns. In this regard, Lights From The Inside harks back to Tresher's earlier releases, but as always his sound aesthetic continues to evolve in new directions
