*300 copies limited edition* “Two In Teer (two in the tar) contains five cycles of poems spread over fourteen tracks, always implemented differently in terms of sound. Poetry and sound poetry turn into fragile and lonely noises. An excessive collage of voices, piano, and increasingly distorted and destroyed tape recorders. Solo and in duet with the voices of Alice Kemp, Mara Genschel, Anna Schimkat, and the violins of Hans Essel and Inge Salcher.
Perhaps the most naked, embarassing and most indeterminable recordings until now.
In contrast to the previous poems, which used the topic of relationships as a symbol to describe social and political togetherness, the poems and pieces on Two In Teer are exclusively focused on the relationship between two people. Nevertheless, this “we” end up in an individual position. What remains is desire and failure. For the first time, four English poems are released here, next to the German ones.”
