EMERGE: IV (excerpt)

From CDr / Special Mini-CDr Edition / Download Album »Voice of newroses« (atemwerft 2021 / aw 011).
Release: 11/2021.

For Hörkunstfestival 2011 in Nuremberg, Martyn Schmidt did a one-time performance under the project name YIELD. »Voice of Newroses« was improvised solo on a theatre's stage, solely using voice and effects and a loopstation. Aereal drones, noise, distorted sounds of voice and mouth-driven rhythms:  The live-recordings of »Voice of Newroses« capture a moire of multicoloured shades of voices. Psychophonetic tracks of sound meet neurotic noise and soundpathologic recoil and feedback. A Histery of loops, sound-psychedelic, uncer-taint-ies and unclear reactions come upon over-adaption and error pulses, re-pointed in a permanently new constructed occurence of sound. A noisy, raucous, sometimes grainy, sometimes droney soundscape – with the effect-devices overlaying the tracks like emotional interferences.

An atemwerft release, limited edition, 8 copies CDr, 8 copies Mini-CDr.

On the compilation »Vocology #01: Phonosurgery« nine international sound & vocal artists celebrate Gottfried Eduard Arnold's 100th jubilee.
In 1962, Gottfried Eduard Arnold (1914 - 1989) developed the method to inject teflon into the vocal cords und coined the term »phonosurgery« with Hans von Leden the following year.
Gottfried Eduard Arnold - also: Godfrey Edward Arnold - was an Austrian American professor of medicine and researcher. His studies centered on speech, speech disorder and clinical communicology.

"Phonosurgery" is a charity compilation. The download is for free. But if you want do donate for charity, you can decide how much you want to give. Proceeds will go for 100% to a school for speech-impaired children respectivly to the society supporting this school. The school is located in a little old castle and stands in Wasseralfingen (Germany) which is the hometown of Atemwerft's operator. Here's the homepage:

Katrine Faber - Nest Of Voice  (Track 01 from Various Artists' Compilation "Vocology #1")

,,Dada Data Wrecking Ball'', the 3rd release by vocal arts label Atemwerft celebrates the 129th birthday of poet and creator of the dada manifesto Hugo Ball (22. February 1886 - 14th September 1927) - and it is phonocentric fun:

TTS (Text to Speach) Engines reading and speaking Hugo Ball's sound poetry. The utterings of all TTS engines have been sound-engineered and mastered the same way as usual with natural human vocals.

On ,,Dada Data Wrecking Ball'' you hear Hugo Ball's sound poetry read by male and female artificial voices, different in speed and pitch. Also you can listen to the german lyrics of Ball's poem ,,Seepferdchen und Flugfische'' being spoken in japanese pronunciation. This is Dada! And you can listen to some Dada-mashup of Hugo Ball's words, spoken by a choir of artifical voices, each of them using another language's pronunciation.

This is Dada data.
This dada is a wrecking ball.
This is wrecking Ball.
This is Hugo as a wrecking ball.
This is data wrecking.
So, come to the ball! 

Chrome Speak - Gadji Beri Bimba (by Hugo Ball) - Austrian - Swiss - German Choir  Mix)

From the Compilation „Voices of Babel / Babel of Voices“.  

"Voices of Babel" is a fascinating tightrope walk between linguistics, literature and spoken word: The story of the tower of babel (Genesis 11, 1-9) read in modern constructed languages (conlangs), spoken by the conlang creators themselves. »Voices of Babel« displays language designers from Vietnam, USA, South Africa, France, Spain, Germany and Austria.

These recordings from all over the globe have a personal and recording-site-specific sound. They have been done mainly with non-professional recording devices, owned by the speakers who have been asked to do so. There has been done a post-mastering by Martyn Schmidt @ Hörbrot Studio 2015, Augsburg, Germany.
