Tosca - Odeon [2013]

Viennese duo Tosca will release a new album, called "Odeon", on February 5 2013. Tosca is Richard Dorfmeister (of Kruder & Dorfmeister fame) and Robert Huber, who have been crafting trip-hop and downtempo together for nearly two decades. "Odeon" is slated to be the first release of 2013 on the duo's longtime home of !K7 Records. Featuring collaborators from Tosca's creative inner circle, including vocalists Callier and JJ Jones, the album is darker than their previous five albums, more downbeat, at times ambient. It's unlike anything else out there at the moment. Dorfmeister explains: "We've always had a darker, ambient side, but we really wanted to emphasize that aspect of music with this record. That's where our hearts are at the moment, just keeping the whole vibe low and understated." 

The album's name comes from the venue in Vienna where the duo debuted the new material in October. The performance went so well they decided it would make a fortuitous name — the music/place interface in action once again. The performance features as a bonus disc on the deluxe version of the album that will be available exclusively via the !K7 webstore. Below, you can stream a new track, "Jayjay".
