If we assume that the concept for Arash Safaian's album uberBach - which won the ECHO Klassik Award 2017 in the "Classical Music without Borders" category - was to compose music in which you could feel Bach without Bach being "there", then the release of Mondholz: Remixes & Canons is the continuation of this concept. It contains two original tracks as well as two remixes by renowned electronic producer Hendrik Weber aka Pantha Du Prince - who smilingly claims that he was born with music in his cradle, as his parents played music all the time, even before he was born - in which Weber applies "the rules of Pantha Du Prince" to Safaian's music. Safaian says: "For me, the poetry of this album is that the universal architecture of the canon is united with the principle of dance."

The two artists see this as a dream pairing: "I simply felt that he had the same feelings towards Bach," Safaian explains about Weber. "For me, Black Noise is one of the best electronic albums ever; I hear an encrypted polyphony in his music, the origin of which comes from nature. No one else came into question for the collaboration on my album."

The result is a flawless combination of Bach's revolutionary style with Safaian's extraordinary reinterpretation of the original work - performed by Sebastian Knauer, Pascal Schumacher (vibraphone) and the Zurich Chamber Orchestra - rounded off by the electronic compositional artistry of Pantha Du Prince.
