With Humility, ELEKTROSTAUB opens a new chapter - not louder, not bigger, but deeper! The 3rd studio album by mastermind Patrick Knoch is a statement of gratitude and trust, built on a simple yet rare principle: knowing when to step back and let others shine. Rather than putting himself at the centre, Knoch once again proves his greatest talent lies in recognizing the right voice for the right song, and giving it space to unfold. Tracks like "Falling" (with ECHO IMAGE) and "Too Far From The Pack" (with Salva Maine) already set the tone with two highly successful pre-release EPs, showcasing ELEKTROSTAUB's refined formula: emotional depth, club efficiency and vocal performances that elevate each composition beyond genre conventions. The album does not follow a strict concept. Instead, it functions as a carefully curated mosaic united by its collaborative spirit and the diversity of its guest artists. Each track has its own identity, shaped by a distinct vocal personality, yet all remain unmistakably ELEKTROSTAUB. And the guest list reads like a who's who of the modern synth / electronic pop scene: Richard Bjørklund (SPEKTRALIZED), Salva Maine (CULTURE KULTÜR), Lis van den Akker, ECHO IMAGE, J:DEAD, Alex Braun, Lilli K. Engelhardt, René Anke (LOGIC & OLIVIA), BEYOND BORDER and Mel Gúntzelsson (FUTURE TRAIL, davaNtage) each bringing their own emotion, character and colour to the album. For fans of VNV NATION, SOLITARY EXPERIMENTS, DE/VISION, SOLAR FAKE, MONDTRÄUME or yet ICON OF COIL, "Humility" stands as a pure and authentic future pop album - heartfelt, melodic, and timeless.
Released June 2026 on Alfa Matrix.
