The final part in Kolsch's autobiographical album trilogy for Kompakt. After revisiting early childhood memories with 2013's 1977 - the year of his birth - and looking back at his travels around Europe with 2015's 1983, Rune Reilly Kölsch's latest full-length, 1989, focuses on his turbulent early-teenage years. Besides the challenges of puberty, the Danish artist had to cope with his parents' divorce. 1989 engulfs the listener from the outset with its sonic coupling of classical composition and contemporary production - without sacrificing the impact on the dance floor. 1989 marks also Kolsch’s intensified deployment of real-life orchestral sounds and the conitunation of his extremely fruitful collab with Gregor Schwellenbach: after contributing to predecessor album 1983, the Kompakt affiliate, composer and multi-instrumentalist now conducts the Heritage Orchestra for tracks Khairo, Liath (featuring a violin solo by Kate Robinson) and Serji, the latter of which Schwellenbach co-wrote and co-produced.
