ADLER, GUNTER DOUCHES DAMES

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

3"CD-R

€7.50
"douches dames was part of an ancient indoor swimming pool in forest/brussels. today this elegant art nouveau building hosts the eclectic art laboratory bains::connective. the music, originally intended as a sound installation, is an amalgam made of field recordings from inside the building, antique heptatonic scales and synthetically produced sounds spread out painstakingly in the first movement, infinitely transposed downwards in the second (shepard tones) and finally hidden inside a shady atmosphere in the third, where another stimulating motif is aperiodically interrupted by sudden violent curves. in addition gunter adler has compiled a jumbled array of electroacoustic samples forming a zigzagged rather than streamlined path through his archives."

BÜTTNER, GREGORY 3 / 1

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

3"CD-R

€8.50
"rustling, tinkling and a faint remainder of instrumental tunes - despite their frosty atmosphere the three tracks remain breezy, the darkness doesn´t turn sinister and their tranquility doesn´t become ambient." (label info)

EVAPORI REHEARSALS FOR OBJECTS

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

CD

€13.90
"the aim while composing was to create a sound landscape that is exclusively made up of recordings which are not processed by computer effects (so-called plug-ins). the sounds are influenced by the way they are recorded, e.g. by the positions of the microphone and the sound source in a room. the resulting sonic situations are the basis of the the composition. the sounds - most of them of an everyday nature - were transformed using computer editing only, in order to leave the recognizability of the sounds untouched, create tension and to arouse the listener's curiosity through different atmospheric cadences." (label info) 300 copies in special foldout cardboard cover.

FUNCK, STEFAN TAU

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

3"CD-R

€8.50
"equipped with dat and microphone stefan funck is walking across the plains of northern germany. he is acoustically interested in the cracking sounds of the melting ice and the clattering of icy branches in the breeze. the digitally arranged result is a track of 21 min, beginning very quietly and winding itself in perpetual mutation." (label info)

MCFALL, CHRISTOPHER ALL FOR THE TERROR THAT SINGS SWEETLY TO YOU IN THE NIGHT

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

3"CD-R

€7.50
"many of the sound tailorings used in these works were resultant from source material consisting of several recording sessions involving a flock of black birds that routinely roost within the building architecture in the downtown district of kansas city at night. i found this series of recordings to be absolutely fascinating, as the chatter and cross talk between this rather charged group of birds seemed to assume a definitive dialogue, as they seemed to banter back and forth endlessly. given this, i began manipulating them further and integrating them into other recordings. as i began to work more and more with these pieces, i felt there was a sense of almost primeval sophistication to the quality of these recordings; a direct contradiction however the notion of this became the source from which the names for the track listings emerged. confidence, cunning and endurance: all for the terror that sings sweetly to you in the night." (label info) playing time 19:48 min.

MEELKOP, ROEL GREY MATTER

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

2X3"CD-R

€11.90
"the tracks on 'grey mass / grey matter' have come together in a very satisfying way. they were all concieved as single tracks except one and were composed with quite some time intervals inbetween. now they converge on this release as if they have always belonged together. in a sense that is certainly the case, because the essence of these tracks lies in their concrete origins: all sound material is based on recorded sounds. no electronic sounds whatsoever were added. as if in some mysterious way this can be percieved and it should indeed be noted. or maybe it should just be enjoyed?" (label info) limited to 100 copies, comes on din a5 cardboard cover, one cdr on each side.

STEPHAN / TIETCHENS / FUNCK / BÜTTNER, NICOLAI / ASMUS / STEFAN / GREGROY HEIZUNG RAUM 318

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

CD

€13.90
"the four musicians have been meeting weekly in room 318 for years, but only now did they create music using the acoustics of the room. to be more precise, using one element in the room: the heating. the heating has two problems: first, it doesn't heat. second, it whistles. problem one is unnerving. problem two can be used aesthetically: by turning the radiator knobs, not only can the pitch of the whistling be varied, by using several radiators a multitude of sounds and noises can be created. to add to that, the three radiators used influence one another so that the musicians can provoke aimed acoustic situations. the three radiators were played simultaneously and recorded using a room microphone to create the material for the seven tracks. playing time: 50:24 min. limited edition of 300 copies." (label info)

TIETCHENS, ASMUS EINE GANZE MENGE

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

3"CD

€8.50
"new release feat. three unreleased 'teilmengen' tracks by asmus tietchens which were not included on the previous ritornell albums. sinuswaves and whitenoises are modified to enrmous nearly nothing rooms, snapping and nibbling. abstract places deserted by humans. playing time: 20:27 min." (label info)

ULHER / GREGORY BÜTTNER, BIRGIT TEHRICKS

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

3"CD-R

€7.50
"gregory büttner plays sounds from a computer through various small speakers, which birgit ulher uses as mutes for her trumpet. this way the trumpet sounds and the electroacoustic sounds are modulated by the acoustic resonance chamber of the trumpet. the trumpet is simultaneously a transmitter and a receiver." (label info)

WHETHAM, SIMON D/R

TAUSENDFÜSSLER 

CD-R

€9.00
"october 2008, i join a group of uk based performance artists in tallinn, estonia, to produce new collaborative works as guests of non grata. the theme of the project is "deconstruction/reconstruction", appropriate as this reflects my composing using field recordings. the first performances are solo, showcasing existing work. i spend two days recording and composing in tallinn, performing a 30 minute sound piece for the group. the second performance has barely begun when the power is cut and a hole is smashed in the wall of the performance space with a sledgehammer. the third performance is a group reaction to this, starting loud and intense, gradually becoming calm and peaceful. throughout the fourth performance, individuals reacted to artists actions during the previous performance. my subject, yoko ishiguro, carried out the following: smoking, cooking, washing her hair, eating a banana, attempting all simultaneously." (s.whetham) edition of 100 copies, in digipack cover.
