BLANK - DUDEN (LP)

"Rüdiger Carl is one of the most important figures to have emerged from European free jazz. Musicians Oliver Augst and Christoph Korn, who are a generation younger, work at the cross-roads of improvisation, installation, electronics, and theory. Oliver Augst, Rüdiger Carl, and Christoph Korn have appeared as Blank in different projects and releases from FMP and GROB international. Their latest project takes the theme of "collection" as a starting point. Oliver Augst, Ruediger Carl, and Christoph Korn have sifted through their own recordings and releases from recent years, and have broken them down into microscopically small parts, creating countless strange and colourful fragments. These fragments are then recorded on vinyl in the form of 240 locked grooves. "Duden" is not only a very special recording, but an instrument in itself for Blank will use the locked grooves to perform live with three recordplayers instead of their usual instruments - a genuine mixture between post-turntablism and improvised music. Limited on 400 copies, comes with stunning artwork on extra thick cover by Tobias Rehberger. Special edition of 40 copies, numbered and signed by the artist, are available on request."
