Six years after his Grammy-nominated LP5, Sascha Ring - aka Apparat - takes a bold dive into the complexities of life with his sixth studio album.
A Hum Of Maybe is detailed, finely crafted, and wonderfully unpredictable. At its core, the record is about love - for himself, his wife, and his daughter - and holding onto it, protecting it, and constantly recalibrating as it is in a constant state of flux. As the title suggests, the songs explore being stuck in between: not a clear yes or no, but A Hum Of Maybe.
Ring elegantly combines the perspectives of an electronic producer and a classical composer, working closely with long-time collaborators Philipp Johann Thimm (cello, piano, guitar) - who also co-wrote and co-produced the record - Christoph "Mackie" Hamann (violin, keyboard, bass), Jorg Wahner (drums), and Christian Kohlhaas (trombone). The album also features Armenian-American artist KARYYN - Apparat's Mute labelmate - on 'Tilth', and Berlin-and Rome-based musician Jan-Philipp Lorenz (aka Bi Disc) on 'Pieces, Falling'.
A Hum Of Maybe is complex, deeply personal, and embraces a state of limbo, marking an exciting new chapter for Apparat.
