LYRICS:

Bodies pushed inland
A new crisis at hand
Cause I hate to tell ya
Yeah I hate to tell ya

The ship is going down
Over cities and towns
But we tried to warn ya
Now it's curtains for ya

Next in line for the slaughter
The fight for food and water
Of your sons and daughters
Picked over scraps and fodder

Throw them overboard
We really can't afford
To save the famished horde
We'll feed them to the sword

Man I hate to tell ya
Yeah I hate to tell ya
Oh I hate to tell ya
I really hate to tell ya

Spinning out of control
Indulgence takes its toll
By the moneyed interests
And the herd indifference

Progress running backwards
And all damages factored
I just watch the circus
It always works against us

Man I hate to tell ya
Yeah I hate to tell ya
Oh I hate to tell ya
I really hate to tell ya

Time is running out
Day by day
Look around
We're burning through it all
Nothing there
To break the fall

Time is running out
Day by day
Look around
We're burning through it all
Nothing there
To break the fall
We're tearing down our home
No restraints
No controls
Point of no return
Borrowed time
No lessons learned

SOLEIL MAT
マット太陽

Le Soleil. Cet astre-père que l'on perçoit, en certains endroit de la planète où l'air est trop pollué, au travers d'un rideau de mort. Sa lumière et sa chaleur sont diffractées et atténuées dans notre perception, et l'énergie vitale qu'il symbolise n'a plus de réalité.

Entre réalité naturelle (le soleil tel qu'il est dans l'espace) et réalité perceptive (le soleil tel qu'il nous apparaît sur terre), les familles d'instruments sont assignées à des rôles précis. Une énergie solaire pure, éruptive, impétueuse, élancée au piano, vibrante et chaude aux bois et aux cordes. Un nuage de pollution qui apparaît comme un filtre de plus en plus épais à l'accordéon, diffractant les gestes pianistiques jusque dans les cordes, qui imitent le piano dans un mouvement plus lourd, ralentissant, avec des notes de plus en plus fausses. Mais cet écran opaque, si morbide soit-il, peut aussi être vibrant et mouvementé, évoluant parmi les vents. Alors l'ensemble se laisse enrober d'une énergie noire, massive, conquis par l'espoir d'une vie après le soleil.

Cette pièce est teintée d'une lumière crépusculaire, vernissant de sombres textures par des contours de clarté, ne laissant jamais réellement les mélodies s'émanciper de la masse. Elle fut terminée en mars 2014, alors que Paris vivait pendant quelques jours sous son propre nuage noir, dans un pic historique de pollution aux particules fines.

Soleil Mat - for 7 musicians (2014)

A few days ago, we had some strong rainfall and I recorded its sound at the open bedroom window. I then created some chords and drones in with the Microfreak, drenched it all in some nice Valhalla reverbs, and here it is: A somber journey through the rain to end all rains.

A rain to end all rains

Animated Suspension-  Formants(disquiet0603)

title track from new album available on bandcamp: https://stefanstrasser.bandcamp.com/album/n-dutgang

"nødutgang" unveils an atmospheric odyssey through ambient electronics and percussion, a collaborative creation by stephan bartsch, stefan schmidt and stefan strasser. recorded live, the album captures the fluidity of bartsch's percussion, the ethereal electronic landscapes shaped by schmidt, and the later overdubbed electronic textures of stefan strasser. the seamless blend of unconventional percussion and synthetic elements invites the listener into a transcendental sonic realm. this collaborative effort, marred only by the unintentional omission of stefan strasser's live session contributions, stands as a testament to their ability to navigate unexpected turns and create a truly immersive musical experience.

Text

The ocean, deep blue-green.
What we learn in the middle of the night is that the world makes us flinch. (Michel Serres, The Five Senses: Philosophy of Mingled Bodies)
Sounds an ocean, drinks it in.

Then everything became worse for the wear, damaged, used and used-up and ultimately destroyed.
More and more I made up for what was lost, I slowly improved myself, and I considered myself healed. (Ingeborg Bachmann, Malina)

I found myself trapped in a nightmare, standing alone at the sea. Everyday becoming more and more.
White and yellow and gray and horizonless. (Tove Jansson, The Summer Book)
