There is more than one way to listen to BEBORN BETON's ninth album
"Darkness Falls Again": it is possible to just dance and enjoy
contemporary synth pop hymns that have a solid musical based in the
golden 80s with a dash of cool 90s influences. Catchy tunes and mature
songwriting combine to form a sonic joyride. Yet BEBORN BETON also put
their finger right on the pulse of our time and speak out against
misogyny, sexual discrimination, and environmental destruction. BEBORN
BETON were founded by vocalist Stefan Netschio, keyboard player and
drummer Stefan Tillmann, and keyboard player Michael Wagner in 1989. The
trio set out with the declared aim to keep synth pop relevant and give
it meaning. Following their first two regular albums "Tybalt" (1993) and
"Concrete Ground" (1994), BEBORN BETON joined renowned acts such as
WOLFSHEIM and DE/VISION in a new label home. Having conquered Germany,
the three electro-musicians rapidly expanded their realm abroad with the
1996 full-length "Nightfall", followed by "Truth" in 1997, and "Fake"
(1999) that gained the Germans international acclaim by critics and fans
alike. By the time, "Rückkehr zum Eisplaneten" ('Return to the
Ice-Planet') was released in 2000, BEBORN BETON had firmly positioned
themselves as a headlining act
within their scene and toured all the strongholds of electronic music.
Yet heavy touring and the highly demanding creative output of so many
excellent albums in quick succession took their toll. After the release
of "Tales from Another World" (2002) and an exhausting US tour, BEBORN
BETON went on an extended hiatus. 13 years later, BEBORN BETON returned
with a new album on Dependent Recordings to the delight and surprise of
their still huge following. "A Worthy Compensation" (2015) was showered
with accolades from the relevant magazines. Having learned from previous
experiences and not to fall back into a relentless production cycle,
BEBORN BETON took their time to write another masterpiece. "Darkness
Falls Again" has all the ingredients that make synth pop great. Catchy
songs that make the legs twitch, a dash of melancholy, a pinch of irony,
and a knife-tip of anger – music with a meaning. Welcome back BEBORN
BETON!
