Dequantize by An Error for Humanity
“Dequantize” is a profound artistic statement by Berlin-based musician and artist Christian Neyens, inviting listeners on a journey that celebrates imperfection in a world obsessed with perfection. Recorded live at Lux, the album captures the raw beauty of human creativity through a collection of 8 deeply evocative piano improvisations.
This album stands as a direct response to the polished precision of AI-generated music, emphasizing flaws, spontaneity, and vulnerability as integral elements of artistry. Each track tells its own story, ranging from graceful waltzes like “Valse (Rejects, Original)” to the provocative “Roko’s Basilisk (Cult),” weaving together themes of authenticity, imperfection, and existential contemplation.
By embracing the unexpected—errors, unconventional harmonies, and unedited acoustic moments—“Dequantize” challenges traditional notions of musical beauty. Neyens invites listeners to reconnect with the profoundly human aspects of music, where imperfection is not just allowed but celebrated.
This album is more than a collection of pieces; it is a manifesto for the value of imperfection in art and life. Join us in discovering the unquantifiable beauty of “Dequantize”—where flaws become features and humanity takes center stage.
