Basel deep house native Ben Kaczor joins forces with fellow Swiss musician and artist Niculin Barandun to present their debut collaborative album ‘Pointed Frequencies‘ – a therapeutic potential of binaural beats and solfeggio frequencies, providing listeners with a healing experience through sound.
Stepping away from Kaczor’s usual deep house formula, ‘Pointed Frequencies‘ dives into a bath of ambient, microtonal, field recording and electroacoustic techniques, resulting in a truly introspective album for the cold evenings ahead. By employing the dynamics of free improvisation, Kaczor and Barandun create interwoven sound structures, enveloping listeners in a blanket of immersive soundscapes.
The album marks the only physical release from Dial in 2024 and is adorned with cover art by Warsaw/Berlin-based artist Inga Danysz and graphics from Zurich-based designer Sandro Weber (Atelier Maeve). The album also boasts two video shorts created by photographer and video artist Marie Sutter.
‘Pointed Frequencies’ LP is scheduled for release on 29th November via Dial. Order a vinyl copy from Inverted Audio Record Store.
