In March 2025, I brought a piano and a setup of analogue synthesizers to the Farel Saal in Biel, recording three pieces in the serene mid-century atmosphere. Each work was composed specifically for this setting. Delicate piano motifs intertwine with analogue synths, capturing a sound that feels intimate and true to the instruments.
Exactly one year later, the same setup found a new home in the striking concrete architecture of the Maurerhalle in Basel. Three new tracks emerged where minimal themes unfold alongside electronic layers and subtle percussion, gradually opening into expansive peaks.
Spaces brings together these two sessions for the first time on vinyl: six pieces shaped by the same instruments but two distinct architectural worlds.
Faux Tales is the musical project of Swiss composer and producer Timo Loosli. Combining cinematic sound design, post-rock influences and atmospheric electronica, he creates pieces that build from quiet introspection to powerful climaxes. Light piano motifs, suspended in clouds of electronic and neoclassical sonance, echo through a swelling tide of sound, blurring the boundary between serenity and storm. Known for his detailed production and evolving structures, Faux Tales invites listeners into expansive soundscapes that feel both intimate and epic.
