Digital Production 2019

»Retronyms« is Cipa’s third studio album. After his first two albums put a focus on the piano, Cipa exponentially expands his artistic approach as well as his colour palette on »Retronyms«. The eight pieces see Cipa bring together his background as a classically trained pianist and composer with his interest for pop music, jazz and electronic music in all its diverse facets. Each note on this album is meticulously thought through and yet »Retronyms« radiates with visceral liveliness.

Composer and pianist Yelena Eckemoff's Colors (L&H Production, 2019) was a duet with drummer Manu Katche, a unique instrumentation in her ever-growing list of works.
