Deux Pipes
(Alga Marghen) Used LP $35.00
Six jews harp pieces by this obscure Swiss artist. “Apocalypt Rb- with sampling loop” and “Chor H+ with sampling loop and solo reverb pot,” recorded in January 2000, are virtuoso performances of improv over a loop-continuum sampled through a Casio child synth. From 1994, “Maultrommel und Sprache” scientifically investigates the use of jews harp in rendering human voice, moving from the basic structure of language to construction of a perfectly accomplished sonic statement. Three other pieces from 1995 complete the collection. Gatefold sleeve with eight-page booklet reproducing drawings from between 1969 and 2006, and the complete score of “Maultrommel und Sprache.” Edition of 330.
