Raash ve Ruach
Dive into the mesmerizing soundscape of Alex Stolze's latest record "רעש ורוח, - Raash ve Ruach": this work weaves together the contrasts of contemporary classical music and electronica, where the violin takes center stage, singing in place of words during a time that often feels speechless. "Raash ve Ruach," meaning "Noise and Wind," is not only an album—it's a call for spiritual reflection. Inspired by Jewish tradition and recent events of our time, Stolze's music resonates with both the turmoil of the present and the longing for renewal. Crafted in the tranquility of the Uckermark and polished in Berlin's vibrant Neukölln, this album is a unique blend of rhythmic beats and introspective melodies. Perfect for those who crave music that moves both the body and the soul, "Raash ve Ruach" is a danceable yet deeply reflective experience.

Artist
Alex Stolze
The Jewish-German violinist and producer Alex Stolze has earned a strong reputation for his unique music. He switches seamlessly between modern classical instrumentation and sensitive electronica and manages to create a previously unseen sound based on his 5-string violin. Middle Eastern scales create a beguiling soundscape, complex polyrhythms and unusual time signatures become addictive, danceable grooves and rousing songs. Alex Stolze's work with the electronic trio Bodi Bill, the avant-garde band Dictaphone and his work as founder and head of Nonostar Records, on which Anne Müller, Ben Osborn, Qrauer and Field Kit have also already released, also repeatedly attracts international attention.
