ZWEI OSTEREI

A very experimental music for two long improvisations made of new sounds with acoustic instruments (cellos.) amplifiers, echo-machines and microphones. The compositions are near to sound installations for contemporary art gallery. The progressive exploration appears in the way the conventional instruments are used (isolated from their original source due to amplifiers and tape manipulations). In this modern electric experimental work, the inter-media artist Conrad Schnitzler is accompanied by his two friends from Zodiak Club (Moebius & Roedelius). The first track is a dark pro-electronic composition with linear cello themes, aleatoric percussions and feedback, cracking organ sounds. Very repetitive and hypnotic. The version includes "religious" and "dramatic" narratives in German. The second track is purely instrumental with the same percussive, metallic and complex texture. A concrete, "chaotic" and noisy proto-electronic work! Surely too avant-garde for many prog-heads but it remains a little classic.
