German dark ambient/electronica project Ynnerspeaker has shared another track, "Nesseln", from its impending full-length, Keine Distanz, scheduled for release on 19 September by How To Destroy The Devine Records.
States the duo: "Our third release from the upcoming album, Keine Distanz, tells the story of emerging from pain. A deep, heavy theme, yet also that moment when the fog lifts and a new horizon becomes visible. 'Nesseln' is a minimalist mantra: a choir carried by guitar and a gentle pulse. Like a ray of light, the song breaks through the dark passages of Keine Distanz, which will be released on September 19, 2025, via How To Destroy The Device Records".
"All that mattered slipped away when I turned from nettles' sway."
What began in muggy rehearsal rooms has evolved into a unique partnership that defies distance. Jan and Markus, once youths bound by rural monotony and endless road trips, now live 500 kilometres apart – yet continue creating raw, uncompromising music together.
What started as late-night jams has shifted to the digital space. The principle is simple: everything is allowed, nothing explained. Vocal choirs blend with noises, electronic drums, analogue synthesisers, and a bunch of guitars. Every track results from a creative back-and-forth process - until both agree.
The music on Keine Distanz is built on intuition, improvisation, and layering, with a dark, atmospheric edge. Keine Distanz is a sensual gaze at the grey sky. A firm grip on damp moss. A clear view of the here and now. Like a wet glove slowly warming through you. A good reason to leave. An invitation to stay. A long way to a closed door. Link
