ORANGE SECTOR

In exactly one month today the album "FEUER FLAMME" from Orange Sector comes out on all the digital stores. Pre-Order the album today.

One track is out so far from the upcoming album and you can buy it and listen on Bandcamp and Stream for free on Spotify.

"TANZFABRIK" is in my opinion a great preview of the upcoming album, dark and melancholic, with a mixture of body and classic 80s sounds. 

"FEUER FLAMME" are set for release in November 29 through the German label of Infacted Recordings. 

PRESSRELEASE: 

After 32 successful years, Orange Sector prove that the journey is far from over. It’s this blend of sympathy, authenticity, tirelessness, and continuity that defines the band. Therefore, they don’t need to reinvent themselves musically. Yet, they always sound fresh, but never the same. 

With FEUER & FLAMME, album number 13, they deliver everything that makes Orange Sector what it is—perhaps even more! Songwriter Martin Bodewell presented the band with 18 demos, of which 15 were developed in collaboration with Lars Felker, crafting lyrics that hold great significance for both of them. The lyrics are often very dark, poignant, and emotional. Lars Felker states, “A lot has happened in recent years, and we wanted to capture that.” Thematically, the songs tell stories from real life, touching on topics such as heartbreak, equality, depression, and individuals who have deeply disappointed us. 

A lot of emphasis was placed on sound selection. They worked extensively with old analog synthesizers. Notably, this wasn’t limited to just the bass range. Martin also focused on detailed drum sounds, often creating them himself. There are beautiful 80s retro sounds, minimalist song structures, and a Moog DFAM that adds the finishing touch. You can hear that making FEUER & FLAMME was a lot of fun. Martin shares, “I spent time in the studio experimenting with sound and mood, but I was always aware that the OS team was the focus.
