dave phillips – ritual protest music

grey vinyl LP. edition 300. and download. 6 tracks 40 minutes

any form of definition will eventually work against itself

sound as communication in direct and primal form, a language, a tool of metaphysics, a conscience, a consciousness. works that oppose the omnipresent restriction and reduction of life, to activate primordial shared emotions otherwise hidden under the debris of this crumbling civilisation. inviting rumination, encouraging intervention, endorsing catharsis & environmental e/quality, touching sentience, cleansing. audio de/construction, psycho-acoustics, sound rituals, sonic activism, humanimalism; ritual protest music to heal homo sapiens out of its infancy.

solo works since 1987. 
part of SCHIMPFLUCH-GRUPPE (with Rudolf Eb.er, Joke Lanz, Marc Zeier, Daniel Löwenbrück etc.) since 1991.

projects present and past include OHNE, dead peni, perverts in white shirts, PK, ketsu no ana, fear of god & more;  collaborations with G*Park, Francisco Meirino, Randy Yau, Hiroshi Hasegawa, GX Jupitter-Larsen, Chris Galarreta, Masonna & more; ScHimpfluch Associates label with Rudolf Eb.er etc blablabla
