Love is the essence of a soul. Dirk Scheuber is renowned, appreciated and loved around the globe for his work besides Peter Spilles in Dark Electro stronghold Project Pitchfork, the introvert, laid back and humble artist now reveals another facet of his craft. His solo album is an utterly intimate, vulnerable and decidedly personal insight into his deepest inner, into the fathomless ocean of his soul. A tour de force through his darkest depths and onwards to his shattered soul – to his cathedral, so to speak, where his demons hold court. Gloomy and dark electronic music based on heartfelt emotions, that could be one way to describe „The Me I see“. A fragile man who has been at the bottom of the downward spiral. „The Me I see“ is Scheubers salvation. Is is his exit sign out of depression and his status quo. An album that wasn't even meant for the public, a profoundly private record solely destined to make peace with the world. It is rare luck that Dirk Scheuber decided to share this arousing snapshot with the world after all. Not only because it has been long since the world of dark music got to hear such an intense and intimate monument that feels strangely familiar and original at the same time. But also because Dirk Scheuber is a true genius painting grandiose portraits with his songs. Portraits that will, among countless others, impress every single Project Pitchfork out there and that showcase one fundamental fact: Great art like this is meant to be shared with the world. Because it is salubrious. Because other people can find the exact same thing Scheuber found in it: Catharsis.
Released late August 2016 on Trisol.
