Jonathan Hurt – Tears of Time

»Tears of Time« is an attempt at a counterculture to overproduction. With six, partly epic and soulful artpop ballads, Jonathan Hurt pours his heart out to us.

The songs on „Tears of Time“ were created in a „one-take process“ based on external „analogue“ hardware. When recording the tracks, Hurt resisted digital production and corrections through MIDI and DAW features in order to counteract commercial, currently pop-cultural production standards.

All compositions are based on a single recording session and have not been corrected, reworked or pre-produced. However, the songs, some of which are very multi-layered, are not entirely without effects and spatial separation in order to be able to experience them pleasantly: The mixing & Mastering was done by Cologne based musician @timmroller 

Using a #Hohner rhythm machine and an #Alesis QS7, Hurt has limited himself and focused at the same time, creating a very essential, #honest and »flawed« work.

Authentic, #melancholy and yet lovingly empathetic „Schmalz“ about and for this time.
