The contractions began abruptly. The Helsinki Club in Zurich doubled over and screamed. Less than three hours later, personne was born. No C-section was needed. personne ran before she could walk and sang before she could speak. “attention economy” marks personne’s bold first statement: an EP that came into the world as abruptly as the band itself. Uncompromising inventiveness, anger, and the courage to criticize unite these three outstanding musicians into a vibrant embodiment of hope.
Anna Girsberger, Paul Studer, and Basil Schreyer had to find one another. All born in the early 2000s and shaped by the tension fields of digital dopamine, virtual encounters, and late-stage capitalism, they are ready to shake off the pace of modern life. They long for meaning beyond the visible, for genuine connection. “attention economy” is both a critique of a world increasingly defined by visibility and a counterproposal to it: analog, warm, human music that evokes the surreal pop worlds of Aldous Harding, the uncompromising honesty of Sophie Hunger, and the lyrical depth of Adrienne Lenker.
