Der Arbeiter is the solo project of Chilean architect and musician Juan A. The recordings on "Fernweh" (wanderlust), consisting of nine original compositions and one cover track, were created between 2022 and 2025 and are characterised by an overarching style. The clear song structures combine precisely calculated, classic Neofolk arrangements with warm sounds from electroacoustic instruments, along with cold synth pads and electronic beats, creating a harmonious sound tapestry. A superb addition is a cover version of the futuristic-dystopian song "Utopia" by Goldfrapp, which is harmoniously integrated into the album's material.

"[The] melancholic longing for urban escape to distant lands (perhaps back to his homeland) is musically underscored with gentle acoustic guitars, warm analog synthesizer pads, and subtly cool post-punk/synth-pop rhythms. A small masterpiece in the unity of design and sound... A wonderful gem" (Black Magazin).
