Info:

Rico Friebe's fifth double studio album "The Desire Path / The Open Glade" is his magnum opus and purest work to date, finding back to his distinct acoustic sound and songwriting.

Originally, these works have been filed under the title "Anthems For A Lost Generation" before Friebe wrote and recorded everything new from scratch for that album.

The songs "212", "Friend Pt. 2", "S. and ".." have already been acclaimed in the guise of the Rico Puestel dubs and are seeing the world as original versions for the first time ever.

Through the blackest night, Friebe's light shines brighter than the sun on this album...

Info:

The new Rico Friebe album "Dream" has arrived and it has been a true one-man job on drums, piano, hammond organ, (bass) guitar and vocals!
For converting his recent and life-long recurring dreams to lyrics and music, the decision to mainly embed these into one personally favoured Dream Pop-Rock/Shoegaze scenery stood to reason for him...

Opened (and closed) by the multi-guitar instrumental "Cayman" Rico Friebe sets a fugitive premise (not to be understood fiscally!) for something bigger and interfering to come.
"Dissect" immediately dissects the already crumbling, warping and distorting dream of an enchanted archipelago and falls into a scenario of a burning world, lyrically stating that "worlds collide into your life [...]".
"Crippled" then comes down as a more palpable take on people leaving others high and dry in a gruelling and fatal way while "Folder Zero" marks a consecutive shift of perspective and moment of recollecting decisions.
"You Know (How)" suddenly appeals as an upbeat Pop-appealish try to grasp interhuman interaction and communication followed by its more gritty counterpart "Disconnect" that deals with those preceding things and hopes falling apart.
"Seven" happens to be a magic number as well as a magic moment disputing the troubles and struggles of interacting and deciding within close emotional situations leading to an universal introspective (maybe the Friebe's most apt yet) with "Lessons" positioned to be infinity number 8 on purpose here.
"Now" is the musically lightest moment on the album and a recourse on the earlier Pop-appeal of "You Know (How)" before a a hypnotically replaying chain of questioning "When?" enters the final spotlight.
Ultimately, "Namyac" spawns memories of how all of this once began...

What once was dreamt in a few seconds, now unfolds in a truly unique and individual manner on this (once again) unexpected new album work by Rico Friebe!

Info:

"Maintenant" (meaning: Now) defines it all: A snapshot in time, 13 piano pieces, completely improvised by Rico Friebe in one take! Three years after recording "The Silva Sessions", this new album serves as some kind of sequel to the improvisational and aesthetic characteristics - presenting a vast and meditative soundscape solely on the piano with some subtle electronic manoeuvring within. A truly unique moment that got captured here and a special album, you won't come along too often these days...

Info:

"Dear music lovers, this album represents the truest and purest essence of myself in a 'now state' at the end of my thirties. I really don't care about aging, but I care about these ten songs. They make me happy, sad, aware, they make me laugh, cry and confident - hopefully, they make you feel the same or make you feel at all, too. For me, they shatter the rising coldness in this world. This wholesome musical powerhouse is about 'people in white cars' - it's a weird metaphor. Learn all about it on this album." - Rico

Info:

Grief, sadness, goodbye. With "Shook", Rico Friebe returns to the purest form of acoustic intimacy - just his voice and the guitar after the Requiem introduction. Being in daily grief and torment for almost 500 days, he melodized a funeral procession, burying an agony, being the sole attendant, shining a light in darkest night...

Info:

The fourth studio album „Pain Matters“ by Rico Friebe came totally unexpected to him as well as it comes to you now!

Deeply affected from personal occurences within the further realms that already spawned „Anthems For A Lost Generation“, Rico fell into an abyss where anything became possible – anything raw, spell-binding, meditative and bold as „Pain Matters“!
