> At first sight, the combination seems highly unlikely: On the one side,
> there's Peter Grummich, techno DJ and producer with a reputation of
> being one of Berlin's foremost party animals. With releases on Kompakt
> and Shitkatapult to his name, it seems he is wearing "a rumble-rave
> halo". On the other side, there's the Staubgold-label, a notorious
> A-Musik-supplier, which for the past ten years (take note!) has
> "addressed the synapses in head as well as the feelings on a gut level"
> (Leipziger Volkszeitung) on more than 80 releases.
>
> One look at the motto on Grummich's myspace site reveals the common
> denominator: "No boundaries, just hot shit with love." Taking a closer
> look at the man reveals a more complex portrait (of, well, the artist)
> than most would have thought. Wrote Sascha Koesch in German electronic
> music magazine De:Bug: "His propinquity to Shitkatapult plus the
> occasional album on Kompakt make it almost inevitable, that most people
> will utter a finger-wagging and grinning 'Ouch!' when his name is
> mentioned. But if there is one thing that Grummich does not have, it is
> a rumble-rave halo. He hates rock snares, but loves italo (and disco in
> general). His father had been a DJ, and Grummich himself has been
> working the turntables for the last two decades." He currently releases
> for Circus Company, Karloff Recordings and Shitkatapult among others.
>
> "Dinner Music For Clubbers" presents music for the time before and after
> one hits the floor. No dance music, but music to listen to, which
> inspires, stimulates and gently widens one's aural perception (a kind of
> "vespertine music" if you will) – a complete menu, from the aperitif to
> the digestive. Thus this mix cd is Grummich's alternative draft (or, to
> put it more blatantly: the opposite) to the uniform
> "Buenavistabuddhabar"-ambient, which rules the cafés, bars and hip
> restaurants of this world with an iron fist.

> + staubgold 81 Autistic Daughters - Uneasy Flowers cd/lp
>
> "Uneasy Flowers" is the second album by Autistic Daughters, the
> intercontinental trio of Dean Roberts (guitar, vocals), Martin
> Brandlmayr (percussion, computer) and Werner Dafeldecker (guitar, bass).
> It is also the fourth in a series of records in which Roberts, having
> begun in more abstract territory in New Zealand's mid-1990s 'free noise'
> ferment, has embraced song, lyric and voice as vessels for topographic
> and psychoanalytic tracings of the impacts of territory and nomadism on
> the subject.
>
> This is reflected by the shape-shifting nature of the outfit: while
> Autistic Daughters, whose name comes from a lyric from their first
> record "Jealousy And Diamond" (staubgold 56 lp), are resolutely a trio,
> they also work in cinematic format, with ancillary players – in this
> instance, Chris Abrahams of The Necks, Martin Siewert and Valerio
> Tricoli – as part of both cast and crew, foley artists behind the trio's
> complex, worm-turning arrangements.
>
> With "Uneasy Flowers", Roberts traces the internal and external workings
> of one protagonist: or, rather, a protagonist who 'contains multitudes',
> a figure that dissolves the unified self. Rather, this character,
> Rehana, embodies multiplicity and fragmentation in order to both a)
> address loss and b) aim toward transfiguration, transcendence. There are
> traces in the lyrics – traces of addiction and desire, myth and
> transformation - that are obliquely reflected in the music's structure,
> its uneasy tension between the pop song (the 'moment') and experiment
> (the 'process').
>
> In some ways, it reminds of the structural, loop-based cinema of figures
> like Malcolm LeGrice: taking one moment and stretching it, the better to
> capture its nuances and to draw out all the repressed material caught in
> the mise-en-scene, the hidden, cloaked content that erupts when your
> world spirals out of your own control and gets caught in webs of
> interpersonal politic. The move from intimacy to capture of the 'greater
> picture' enacted by both lyric and music here resembles a camera
> dollying out, a shift of perspective unsettling for its vertigo-inducing
> qualities.

> The Iberian 'sound shamans' Francisco López and Rafael Toral are among
> the most renowned representatives of the international electronics
> scene. Both have for many years explored the "depths" of the vast worlds
> of sound and noise.
>
> Played in profound darkness and making use of a sophisticated
> multi-channel projection, Francisco López' music allows us to immerse
> ourselves in unique acoustic developments. Sources of sound from all
> over the world form the basis of his virtual and extremely dynamic sound
> spaces.
>
> Rafael Toral undertakes to create a 'universal' music by producing, with
> the aid of various sensors, sounds that are closely linked to a genuine
> kind of physicalness. Space Studies forms part of a series of pieces
> that concentrate on very strict but nevertheless open arrangements of
> sound and silence − in the words of Toral: "post free jazz electronic
> music".
