AD is the 1999 founded Industrial / Electronica headed solo-project of the composer and musician Armin Doerfler also known for his work with Darkseed, Two-Worlds - Ambermoon Harold Faltermeyer, Pagemaster, Equilibrium and others.
The main aspect of this project is focussed to invite the listener to a meditative journey into a darkromantic, yet cold and futuristic artificial world of duality, isolation and longing. Raw and simple in speech but rich of content, with enough room to let you reflect your inner world while listening.
Athough “First” was not initially planned as a concept album like the “Distanz EP” the compositions are held together by the omnipresent duality we face. It inherits the internal strifle of individuals, the incapacity of the masses as well as the contrasts in nature and in life itself: Haunting romantic melodies packed together with machinelike sequences, flowing harmonic soundscapes clash with the crude electricity of industrial beats.
“First” creates a dark and shimmering atmosphere far away from common superficiality and stereotype-thinking, a score for memories and dreams, personal and intimate for the ones who read between the lines.
