About the Album

The Burning Spider

It is not just the spider that is burning, it is the entire net: driven by the strong will to free itself from the spiderweb of expectations and inspired by a creative fire, Parov Stelar unveils unexpected sides of his music on his new album „The Burning Spider“ and opens a new chapter of his samplebased sound research throughout the history of music.

Many aspects of the unique Parov Stelar sound remain, only influences and references are newly generated once again. On his last albums especially swing references made Stelar a global superstar of a genre, now he offers new sounds with blues and jazz elements from Muddy Waters, Lightnin’ Hopkins and singer Anduze from the American Virgin Islands.

And there are still three „classic“ Parov Stelar tracks with a decent portion of swing on the album, because even if you are developing in giant steps you should not forget where you come from, and swing music is just a part of what Parov Stelar is. On top of that eight elaborate music videos have been produced for almost all titels on the album.
