‘Alta Ripa’ captures Boysen’s transformative experience moving from rural Germany to the pulsing city of Berlin, blending the introspective melodies of his bucolic beginnings with the bold, experimental tones born from Berlin’s vibrant electronic music scene.
This album is a testament to Boysen’s evolution, showcasing how geographical shifts can profoundly shape artistic expression. Boysen’s fourth studio album under his own name, Alta Ripa is a nod to his beginnings as much as a hint to his future, and as a work, it’s almost contradictory in its boldness and humility. He invites the listener on a journey of self-discovery; both for himself and for them, describing the music as “something the 15-year-old in me would have liked to hear but only the grown-up version of myself can write.”
Boysen’s classical and jazz music upbringing might not be easily noticeable from the electronic palette that he uses. But it can be found in its bones; the structure of the tracks and their dynamic shifts. On ‘Alta Ripa’, he intentionally embraces a spirit of controlled chaos, churning out sonic ideas to see what sticks.
