End Hits presents: THE WITCH x LUHLÆ by YRRE (Ciné-Concert)
Style: Ambient, Black Metal, Noise, Drone
Ein paar welsche Genies haben es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, den Horror-Film ‘The VVitch’ (2015, Robert Eggers) neu zu vertonen.
Der daraus resultierende Sound haben die fünf Musiker dann im Rahmen des Film-Festivals ‘2300 Plan 9’, im Bikini Test in La Chaux-de-Fonds, im August letzten Jahres aufgeführt – Die Reaktionen auf dieses Ciné-Konzert fielen derartig positiv aus, so dass einige der Songs innerhalb eines Monats neu arrangiert, aufgenommen, gemischt und auf Platte gepresst wurden. Das Ciné-Konzert bildet ein perfektes Gleichgewicht zwischen Black Metal, Ambient, Noise, Post-rock und Drone.
Für sein Filmdebüt stützt sich der amerikanische Regisseur und Drehbuchautor Robert Eggers auf seine tiefe Faszination für alte Hexengeschichten und wiederholten Besuchen im historischen Museum seiner Heimatstadt Lee in New Hampshire.
Film Synopsis: Die Geschichte spielt in den 1630-er Jahren. Eine von der Gesellschaft verbannte, puritanische Familie begegnet im Wald, hinter ihrem Bauernhof in New Engand, den Mächten des Bösen.
Covid-19: Eintritt nur mit gültigem 2G+ Zertifikat.

In 2008, in la Chaux-de-Fonds, 2300 Plan 9 - Les Étranges Nuits du Cinéma presented the first cine-concert ever to happen during their festival.
In the following 11 years, 2300 Plan 9 has seen many artists take up the stage and show their own creations. Translating each time, with different themes and perspective, the movie of their choice into music and delivering it to an ever- growing crowd.
Emilie Zoé, The Fawn, Adrien Guerne and Reverend Beatman to name a few, have also been through this experience. In the past 7 years, the cine-concert event has gained in popularity and is sold-out each year. This one magical night is talked about long after the festival is over.
After all having invested ourselves in the festival at some point, we were commissioned by the committee to create a cine-concert for the 2021 edition.
It was for this reason that we formed the band LUHLÆ in 2020. Choosing the movie was quick and obvious.
The Witch by Robert Eggers released in 2015 was the perfect canvas to compose our soundtrack. The atmosphere of the movie was a constant reminder of our favourite albums and of the city we live in, la Chaux-de-Fonds. We were confident, with a strong intent of letting our mutual musical influences show through this 1h30 cine-concert, where dread, fear, oppression, evil and deliverance reigns.
This cine-concert is a perfect balance between black metal, ambient, noise, post-rock and drone.
The long awaited showing of our project in august 2021 was, once again, a sold-out evening for the festival. For us, it was a very important event that we'd dreamed of making together for years, which is what made this experience even more intense.
We came to a mutual agreement to change the name of our project LUHLÆ. It will now continue under the name YRRE. A record of an adaptation of the cine concert will be released under this name on Hummus Records in January 2022.
