German musician and producer Luis Ake drops off his genre-bending project dubbed ‘Liebe’ released under Mansions & Millions.
Packed with 10-tracks and various sounds, Liebe, or ‘Love’ in English, is a groundbreaking body of work from Luis Ake who continues to grow as an artist with each release whilst expanding the very definition of German pop.
Lyrically captivating and conceptually complex, Liebe sees Luis Ake cleverly explore the dimensions of our being as humans in search of an explanation for what we understand as romantic love and its manifold mysteries.
Slinking seamlessly between Synth Pop to Dark Wave, to Italo Disco and Neue Deutsche Welle, no stone is left unturned when Luis Ake creates and Liebe is a shining example of his immense talents and unending versatility.
A true artist, Luis Ake is a man who is fully in charge of his sound and artistic vision, whether it be opening up about heartbreak or lighting up dancefloors with 80s inspired grooves, Luis Ake welcomes his own vulnerability, embracing the unknown and this album is just as much a unique perspective and exploration of sound as it is of Liebe.
“For me, pop music is an art form that is not exclusively about music,” – Luis Ake
It’s also about multidimensionality to him, it’s about avoiding repetition and embracing pathos, not shying away from big feelings and creating a new world for the listeners, a world in which they can be completely and utterly absorbed, which they can shape and understand as they please. In search of the explanation for love, perhaps, and for the one beautiful dream that is never going to end. Even if you have to journey across dimensions to achieve it.
