Mono Metal Space
Winfried Ritsch on Mono Metal Space: "... a 2x1m metal plate hung on a stand or frame is stimulated by amplifier driven modified motors used as strong transducers, and sensored by pickups. The computer-controlled feedback uses digital filters and dynamics effects as signal processing to try to resonate the plates within their individual overtones. These playable feedback filters are controlled as notes by playing increasing and decreasing sounds near the composed frequencies of the notes which e…

Revue instrumentale et electronique
Gerd Kühr is a synonym for combining complexity and simplicity, modernity and “tradition”. Revue instrumentale et électronique - spatial composition for an instrumental ensemble and recorded sound in six movements – manage to cross and unite great variety of aspects of musical expression: complex, though powerful rhythmical constructions with hard accented percussion - boosted through ensemble spread in a room - and highly lyrical passages with extreme appreciation of time structured silence. Al…
Differenz/Wiederholung 2
Bernhard Lang's Differenz/Wiederholung 2 is a multi-media piece for amplified ensemble, three voices and video installation. While the music is filled with rocking-and-rolling, anti-grooving sound slaps, "scored free jazz", and crippled repetitions, three vocalists present texts (including rap) from Gilles Deleuze, William Burroughs and Christian Loidl, commenting on usual repetitive human habits and its nonsense. If Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica (1969) is a milestone of avant-rock, …

Solo Guitar Volume 2-1/3
"Eugene Chadbourne is one of the great guitar players of the modern era. At the time he began recording in Canada in 1975, his music was a unique syncretic formulation. While its most obvious component was free improvisation in a style then most widely associated with English and European players, his music also contained elements of jazz, country, folk, blues, psychedelic and international sounds, referencing these threads in ways that were so diverse and intensely personalized it would take sc…
