它并不经常发生，但有时你会在街上经过时看到一个男人的眼睛，并立即感觉到这不是一个好惹的人。 他与侵略或恶意无关 - 事实上，他从来都不是那种大声聊天并且自大的人，也不是那种用练习过的看起来很“酷”的方式说话和走了的人。 这是对一个曾经看过并体验过的事物仔细分析从中冷静吸取教训的人。 是的，这种人并不常见，这种形式的艺术——文学或音乐传达给你的感觉更加不寻常。 Albert Van Abbe就是这种不寻常的人。

Albert van Abbe 从2001年开始制作音乐以及现场演出，当听到他的音乐时，总有一些元素会让你想起1901年，如同Stravinsky, Ravel和Schönberg音乐中忧郁的低语般。他集中于节奏和旋律，有时打破了由Arpeggiators或Sequencers所设定的约束。在Albert van Abbe的现场中，这种另类的、不认同的思维和演奏音乐的方式是最明显的，他也是为数不多的曾在Berghain、Awakenings & ADE演出的荷兰人之一。

他与同时代绝大多数Techno音乐人不同的是，他的音乐很难归类。而现在有太多的电子音乐被有意地低估，粗糙和过分简单化或过度制作。Albert van Abbe的音乐是特别的，他的音乐中有广阔的天空，飘过的云朵；从开阔的田野中升起的薄雾……山顶上的景象或无边的树冠半掩在雾中，一种无拘无束的感觉而总有一处地方让你的肺得到净化。Albert van Abbe的倔强和反权威的性格以他的视角呈现在音乐中。

It doesn't happen often, but sometimes you catch the eyes of a man as you pass him by in the street and you instantly get a feeling that this is not someone to mess with. It has nothing to do with aggression or malice – in fact, it's never the loud, cocky guys with the attitude and the practiced “cool” walk and talk. No, it's the calm, steady gaze of someone who has seen and experienced things and learned from them. Indeed, it does not happen often, but it's even more unusual to get that same feeling conveyed to you through art, literature or music. Albert van Abbe is that unusual. 

Albert van Abbe started making music and performing live in 2001 but when listening to his work, there are certain elements that rather makes you think of 1901. Melancholic whispers of Stravinsky, Ravel or Schönberg, reduced and concentrated to rhythmical and melodic patterns, sometimes breaking free of the constraints set by arpeggiators or sequencers. Perhaps this otherly, nonconformist way of thinking and doing music is most evident in van Abbe's live performances, and he is in fact one of the very few Dutch techno live acts having performed Berghain, Awakenings & ADE just to name a few. 

But there's something else that sets him apart from the vast majority of his contemporary techno colleagues, something that's harder to pin down. There's so much electronic music these days that is either intentionally underproduced; grimy, harsh and simplistic, or overproduced; tumescent, hyper-compressed and dense. Albert van Abbe's music is distinctively neither. There is always air in his productions; infinite skies, passing clouds, thin vapour rising from open fields... visions of mountain tops or endless tree crowns half covered in mist. There is always place for you within his music to fill your lungs to the brim with this cleansing air. A feeling of unrestrained, reflecting Albert van Abbe's own recalcitrant and anti-authoritative personality. To put it simple: It's music with a view. 

Besides performing, producing music and DJing, Albert van Abbe also currently operates two record labels, No Comment and VANABBE. He has also released music on FIGURE Jams, Semantica, Deep Sound Channel, Trolldans, ESHU & Curle.
