die Angel fue formado 1999 por Ilpo Väisänen en electrónica y efectos (ex Pan Sonic) y Dirk Dresselhaus aka Schneider Tm en guitarra eléctrica y efectos, quienes publican su décimo disco a la fecha.

"Utopien I", que incluye la colaboración de reconocido guitarrista Oren Ambarchi, 

contiene gruesas capas de drones intercaladas junto con guitarras ruidosas que despliegan zumbidos punzantes cuyas descargas eléctricas dibujan la tensión permanente en estos cuatro tracks que se enmarcan en las corrientes de la música concreta, minimalismo, posindustrial y noise. 

Un diálogo contínuo se advierte entre los sonidos chirriantes y compulsivos de las guitarras, se alternan con la electrónica analógica con chisporroteos que parecen latigazos. 

“Epikouros” que abre este disco tiene un envoltorio sombrío que a ratos me evoca las atmósferas de Nurse With Wound con su sonido oscilante y sumergido. “Khormanoupka” que cierra este disco viene a consolidar esta amalgama de sonidos experimentales expansivos, cuyos tonos y pulsaciones son penetrantes e hipnóticas.

die Angel was formed in 1999 by Ilpo Väisänen on electronics and effects (ex Pan Sonic) and Dirk Dresselhaus aka Schneider Tm on electric guitar and effects, who had released their tenth album to date.

"Utopien I" that features renowned guitarist Oren Ambarchi on guitar and effects, contains thick layers of drones interspersed along with noisy guitars that display stinging hums whose electric discharges draw permanent tension in these four tracks which are into the genres of musique concrète, minimalism, post-industrial and noise.

A continuous dialogue is noted between the screeching and compulsive sounds of guitars, alternating with analogue electronics with crackling sounds that seem like lashes.

The opener “Epikouros” has a dark envelope that at times conjure up Nurse With Wound’s atmospheres with its oscillating and submerged sound. “Khormanoupka” that closes this album comes to consolidate this amalgam of expansive experimental sounds, whose tones and pulsations are penetrating and hypnotic.
