WERNER DAFELDECKER / BORIS D. HEGENBART
Eis 9
(Grob) Used CD $5.00
Acoustic-meets-electronic-meets-abstract sound by multi-instrumentalist Dafeldecker and electronic musician Hegenbart, who emphasize sound over energy and introspection over panache. Soft hits on a gong, a few notes of prepared guitar, minimal percussion, non-intrusive electronic treatments, and carefully selected samples all come together in the duo’s post-minimal free improv from 2001.
Harsh, Solo Guitar
(Grob) Used CD $12.00
Over 60 minutes of the master of prepared guitar sound recorded live in Cologne on December 11, 1999, in a cold garage. An unforgiving session but also repeatedly surprising, and always eluding the classical improvisational dialectic of tension and release.
