  • The Berlin synth popper will return with a new album in June.
  • Barbara Morgenstern enjoys Sweet Silence image
  • Barbara Morgenstern will release her sixth album this June on Monika Enterprise. The Berlin-based artist has been putting out music since the mid-'90s, but Sweet Silence will mark the first time that she has ever sung exclusively in English. Throughout her career, Morgenstern's main musical focus has been on synth pop with touches of IDM, and the new album is no different. Only one track is longer than four minutes in length, and Morgenstern's voice and lyrics are undoubtedly the focus. (That said, there are three short interludes interspersed throughout.) The album was mixed by Shitkatapult founder T.Raumschmiere. Tracklist 01. Sweet Silence 02. Need to Hang Around 03. Kookoo 04. Spring Time 05. Jump into the Life-pool 06. Bela 07. Highway 08. Night-time Falls 09. The Minimum Says 10. Auditorium 11. Hip Hop Mice 12. Status Symbol 13. 13 Love Is in the Air, But We Don't Care Monika Enterprise will release Sweet Silence on June 22, 2012.
