MEYER, STEPHAN / GUIDO MOEBIUS - PS 55 / JEW'S HARP (7")

"STEPHAN MEYER - a man and his Yamaha PS-55 Portasound-Keyboard. Funny lo-fi grooves recorded on 4-track. File under cheapo plastic organ trash. No programming, all played live. Stephan obviously likes the drum-presets, his distortion pedal and the arpeggio-function of his instrument. And he definitely rocks this Portasound! GUIDO MÖBIUS, the guy who runs the emphase label, discovered this track by accident on a CDR that Stephan recorded for a friend in Berlin. 'Jew's Harp' is Guido's reaction to (or answer on) 'PS-55'. Like Stephan's piece it is quite driving, but it sounds less harsh. Guido played with the percussive qualities of the Jew's Harp, developing polyrhythmical structures. He did'nt use much filters or other mixing-tools; the frequency sweeps that can be heard mostly are the 'natural' results of time stretching and pitching. An amazing variety of sounds!"
