Wisconsin-based producer and drummer Chants (The Trilogy Tapes, Maximum Airtime, Astral Plane Recordings) meets master drummer Dave Schoepke on this all-drums LP for Brussels-based Maloca Records. ‘Speleogenesis’ blends live drumming with dub techniques and dancefloor-informed production, guided by imagery of a subterranean world. It’s a full-circle moment, as the two met when Chants (aka Jordan Cohen) took drum lessons from Schoepke during his teenage years.

The recording process began with Chants creating skeletal demos for Dave Schoepke to improvise on. Schoepke recorded many layers of drums and percussion, running some of them through his hardware synthesizers. Chants then shaped these recordings, resulting in the cavernous dub techno track ‘Pressure Slide’, the Brazilian-influenced ‘Ritmo Crudo’ and ‘Ritmo Puro’, and the uptempo, slippery dancehall dub of ‘The Quickstepper’.

Chants then assembled a new palette of samples from this core and constructed dancefloor-focused bangers like the hyperactive ‘Cyclone Rhythm’ and minimal 170 bpm ‘Rafter’, adding his own homegrown breakbeats. As the album took shape, the music kept evoking mental images of caves, tunnels, and underwater caverns that in turn influenced the final pieces. ‘Notes from Underground’ and ‘Speleogenesis’ present a more unfiltered view of Schoepke’s nuanced drumming. ‘Airbell Dub’ was also created using material from one of Schoepke’s meditative solo performances. Finally, ‘Cavernicole’ features both drummers in full duet mode, trading phrases over an insistent kick drum pulse.

Uf was heimer Bock?, fragst du nochmals

Konkretere Antwort:
Auf das dritte I Wanna Be a Superstar-Tape von CRTTR – ein Kollektiv mit Heimbasis in Bern, das ausschweift in alle Experimental-Drone-Ambient-Noise-Club-Gebiete und tradierte Räume und Kulturkonzepte mit verschiedensten Veranstaltungen neu/anders denkt. Jedes Kollektivmitglied hat für die Compilation ein*e Freund:*in eingeladen – und eine Regel aufgestellt: 3 Minuten Tonband (und keine Sekunde mehr) hast du Zeit, in denen du machen kannst, was immer du machen willst, nimm es auf, schick es uns und wir editieren alles hin zu einem Tape. Und jetzt, da alles fertig ist mit allen offenen Enden, mit allen Song- und Track- und Experiment-Fragmenten: hörst du 50 Minuten Musik full of flackernder beauty, full of harrowing noises (ja, vor allem emotional), full of Nähe in unrosigen Zeiten. Die Namen der Urheber*innen stehen auf der Tracklist, aber du kannst es auch einfacher machen: die CRTTR-Artists und -Friends sind alle Superstars von hier, von dort, von weiteren Umkreisen. Alles klar?

Das isch es gsi, merci fürds läsä.
