Angela Aux

Angela Aux has been on a mission between pop and underground, anti-folk and avant-pop. A notorious songwriter and oddball; mastermind of Aloa Input, typewriter performances and music for films, feet in the here and now and head firmly in the clouds; buoyant, poignant and whimsical. His live shows can be soloperformance or full band hoedowns, communal gatherings for those in the know no matter what. Lush choirs melt into scrappy hobo lyrics while musical references from Beck to Velvet Underground; Mac De Marco via the Beatles via JustinVernon get transported into a parallel universe.On the five Angela Aux full-lengths released since 2011 theproject’s scope has been continuously expanding. Critical acclaimand fans all over the world have reached their preliminary peak with the two albums „Instinctive Travels on the Paths of Space and Time” (2023) and „Spacelarking in the Age of SpiritualMachines” (2024), which have graced many annual best lists (RBB radioeins, BR2 Zündfunk, Abendzeitung, Goethe Insitut,Brigitte, Morgenpost Hamburg, In-München, Tip-Berlin, Musikexpress and many more).Angela Aux have found their way into international streaming playlists, Netflix soundtracks („Biohackers”) and movies(„Mein Sohn”), fascinates the worldwide radio landscape from BBC6 (UK), FIP Radio France (France), KEXP (USA), Triple J(Australia), FM4 (Austria), SRF (Swiss) or Deutschlandfunk (Germany) and gathering millions of streams along the way.„List of the Best“ at RBB radioeins, BR2 Zündfunk,Abendzeitung, Goethe Insitut, Brigitte, Morgenpost Hamburg, Radio Salzburg, Tip-Berlin, Musikexpress a.o.Space is the Place: on her new album, Angela Aux also greetsus from an astronaut's perspective. The timeless kaleidoscope of songs and pieces combines the fixed stars of 70s folk, hip-hop producing and post-pop: as if John Lennon met J-Dilla for tea in a computer game or Tame Impala remixed a lost Paul McCartney demo. On the upcoming album „Spacelarking in the Age of Spiritual Machines”, the songwriter comments lyrically on the human longing to leave the planet and overtake oneself.Following the acclaimed hybrid album „Instinctive Travels on the Paths of Space and Time”, the songwriter remains on the subject of the future. On the dreamy longplayer “Spacelarking in the Age of Spiritual Machines”, Angela Aux explores the fantastic grey areas of the mythologies of digitalization, space travel and artificial superintelligences. The political scientist counters the „spacelarking” of the apologists around Elon Musk with a set of fantastic trips in the “Kraut-Pop” genre: psychedelic, dreamy and permeated by second and third levels. In addition to Aux's classic earworms, „Spacelarking in the Age of Spiritual Machines” consists of experimental compositions between ambient, lo-fi hip-hop and film music.The new album is like a journey through quirky record crates and is his homage to abstract pop music and creative album concepts between folk, ambient, avant-garde and library music.Angela Aux is a miracle: a mix of Elliott Smith and The Notwist.
