On "Das Ohr am Gleis" ("The Ear On The Track"), Cologne-based musicians C-Schulz and F.X.Randomiz explore the soundworld of contemporary railway traffic. The project sonifies traveling and spatiality as well as rest- and homelessness. It also proves how the sounds we are constantly surrounded by can be emotionally and historically charged. Cologne's railway intersection was the starting point of an expedition which led both artists as far as the Russian city of Murmansk. Along the way they encountered signal boxes, gates, concourses, freight depots, repair halls and tunnels." (label info)
