Mystahr

For as long as Mystahr can remember music has been a fascination to him, starting as a young kid playing with a tape-deck, cutting and mixing tunes and being glued to the radio when Soulshow (Dutch radio show from the 80's) would be on. This all progressed into becoming a professional (house-)DJ during the nineties. After hanging up the needles in the 21st century, he embarked upon a journey through the realms of ambient, electronic, and experimental music, the fruits of which we can now enjoy through his album releases.

(BWR021) Mystahr - Forrae

Forrae is an album that is dedicated to a very dear friend of the artist that is suffering from deep-grown cancer. The music on this album was created at the time she was first hospitalized for this disease. For Mystahr, personally creating this album meant a way to express his deepest feelings of love and care for his friend.

Most of the tracks on this album are performed live, and because of that they hold the essence of the moment. Despite the live nature of much of the material, it took nearly a year and a half to finalize this album - truly a labor of love. Mystahr is proud to see the launch of this precious cargo and hopes it will be received with the same love and care with which it was made.

Forrae is a deep and intimate portrait of the relationship between two close friends, a relationship both threatened by the advent of serious illness and strengthened by it. It is a grand achievement in the world of minimal electronic ambience by an artist at the top of his game.

All proceeds of this album will be donated to the Dutch Cancer Foundation.
