The release have already iniatiated other projects, and I am now currently working with new songs for a new project, with a DJ and a talented singer (you already know!). That’s very nice and makes me exited.

The album release will be followed by more videos, which already have been recorded and now are in the phase of editing. Also a new single is soon to come!
So again, thank you.

Finally it’s here: The album “Man and Machine” has been released

Filled with uplifting music, retro-like guitar sounds, futuristic electronica and windy western landscapes. Also you can experience surf guitars, robot voices and beautiful female voices on the debut album from Mohavi.

The music of Mohavi unfolds in a cross between Americana, Kitsch and Electronica and is clearly heard inspired by both David Lynch as Morricones movie music, classic Kraftwerk, techno and modern club music, which include due Mohavis unique application of an original vocoder, a Roland VP-300 from 1979.

The energetic musician has with the album created his own ballgame and style, which has been called “cowboy-techno” of the inner circle. The sound is retro, quirky and dusty. It is highly danceable music in a unique blend. The album also contains a few quieter numbers and here impresses Anne Christine Wold with her sensitive voice that convincingly slides into the guitarist great techno landscapes.

Mohavi has been in the Danish music scene for many years, but now makes his debut as a solo artist under the new name. Both as a producer and artist, he has left his strong mark on the entire process. Besides playing almost all instruments Mohavi has even directed and edited music videos and created artwork, graphics and visual design for the site and covers.

The new video was recorded/shot in Joshua Tree National Park in California and beside Mohavi you will witness a sculls head, wild dogs, a runaway train and the cactus Lophophora. We must warn you, this motion picture contains psychedelic scenes that some viewers may find disturbing.

It’s still not decided, which track should be the first single. But it will probably be “Death in the Afternoon”, says Mohavi, since a video also almost is ready, with this track.

“It’s a energetic track, with a lot of influence from Spanish and Mexican music”, states Mohavi. “It’s also kind of noisy with power, almost like we had a bullfight in the studio!”

First single from the forthcoming album will be released in september.

The album is now scheduled for release: 20.10.2012.
