Sascha Lemon continues to be an incredibly prolific artist, releasing multiple productions each year. One of his standout works from 2024, “tiltedStage”, features six tracks that showcase his evolving sound. In the first half of the album, the German musician revisits intricate and ethereal IDM structures, blending complexity with accessibility through the use of slow, steady rhythms. The refined, at times subtle sound design invites listeners into a textured sonic landscape. As the album progresses, Lemon ventures further into experimental territory, ultimately embracing his signature Cinematic style in the latter half. This style, while delicate and precise, is made more approachable in certain pieces through the continued use of slow rhythms. The result is a diverse and exploratory work that flows in multiple directions, yet maintains a cohesive identity. For me, the album’s standout moments are its powerful opening tracks, which set the tone for a captivating listening experience. (Rating:7).

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
