sehen mit ohren / seeing with ears
 tres 006 |
"Sehen mit Ohren / Seeing with Ears" is a composition exploring the acoustic perception of architecture. Six blind people living in Vienna discuss their perception of the city, space & architecture. Additional sound materials are various soundscapes of Viennese architecture. Through the techniques of montage, overlay and alienation new acoustic spaces emerge while beginning to warp into dreamlike spaces. In german language. The physical release comes as digipak with braille on the front and the audio CD and includes a 24 page booklet with the complete interviews. 10.- euro plus shipping |

what do coffee machines, neon tubes and gameboys have in common? they can all be found as the creators of sound on the cd hearings. everyday objects as instruments and unconventional approaches as a principle: this premiere cd from transacoustic research’s newly founded label offers, along with the reinterpretation of language samples into musical material, also the sound of the jew’s harp as the basis for electronic music, homemade laptops, and sounds from hard drives’ writing heads. 10.- euro plus shipping BUY MP3s ONLINE: manymusics |
the first vienna vegetable orchestra
automate
 tres 002 |
the first vienna vegetable orchestra plays music exclusively
on vegetable instruments: carrots and cucumbers instead of guitars and drums.
or, with their new cd automate, a cuke-o-phon and radish-marimba instead
of laptop and sampler. the music presents a transfer of electronic music
pieces and structures to the instruments of the vegetable garden.
automate presents the vegetable orchestra’s second cd and their
logical further development. the work on the organic sound bodies and
refinement of the playing and recording techniques have made audible a
new vegetable sound universe. Along with cover versions of Kraftwerk,
the cd is a compilation of tracks influenced by the most diverse contemporary
electronic music styles. an amazing affinity of the organic and digital
world becomes clear on the one hand whereas on the other, an unmistakably
unique veggie sound is created, which could not have been created with
any other group of instruments. 15.- euro plus shipping BUY MP3s ONLINE: manymusics |

gummihandschuhdudelsack / rubberglovebagpipes
 tres 005 |
Rubberglovebagpipes is the name of an instrument and at
the same time the titel of the first Sergej Mohntau Live-Performance,
developed between 1999 and 2002. Musical instruments are used as utensils
and objects of utility as musical instruments. Besides the Rubberglovebagpipes
other instruments like the Electric Window, the Jack-Of-All-Trades Double
Bass and Selfmade Hardcase-Laptops have been created. In combination with
human voices and electronic devices various pieces have been generated.
The compositions follow the specific sonic features of the adapted utensils
and lead to different musical styles. A common sound generated from both
analog and digital sources encased in a dramaturgical concept based on
mechanics, electricity, and electronics. 10.- euro plus shipping BUY MP3s ONLINE: manymusics |

vokál consists exclusively of spoken samples. no other material and no other instruments were used. every bass drum and every synthesizer seeming sound was once a word, a sentence, or an utterance. sixty minutes of pure language that doesn’t sound like language.
vokál is both electronic music and digital micro-cut-up-text, ranging from a complete rejection of linguistic sounds to somewhat understandable babble. at one point, entire words or even sentences are audible, then only short, individual fragments emerge on the click and cut carpet, to once again disappear and make room for something new. 10.- euro plus shipping BUY MP3s ONLINE: manymusics |
institute for transacoustic research
outpost
 tres 004 |
founded in 1998 the institute for transacosutic research concentrates on the invention and definition of the term “transacoustics”, which researches the theory that by permanently changing the auditory angle and continually reinterpretating conventional manners of hearing, the borders of the acoustic and the audible can be expanded beyond the threshold of perception. in the magnetic probability fields of micro- and macro-sounds resides the last outpost of an observable reality. from this starting point the projection and distillation of an imaginary region, a conceivable vastness with digital and analogue sound processors, was attempted in several test arrangements. 10.- euro plus shipping BUY MP3s ONLINE: manymusics |
