Tape Experience live at Open Ear Ambient Festival 2024 (FREE DL)

"Brutalism is not concerned with the material as such but rather the quality of the material, that is with the question: what can it do?“ Peter Smithson
In this podcast the material is no longer raw concrete that brutalist buildings are composed of but the sound we generate and recompose. Much like brutalist architects we are not concerned with the sound as such but with the question of what it can do.


„Bei Brutalismus geht es nicht um das Material an sich, sondern eher um seine Eigenschaften und somit um die Frage, welchen Nutzen es hat.“ Peter Smithson
„Das Material dieses Podcasts ist nicht der Beton, aus dem die Häuser der Brutalismus-Epoche gebaut wurden, jedoch der erzeugte und zusammengesetzte Klang. Dabei geht es uns, ähnlich wie bei diesem Architekturstil, nicht um Klang als solchen, sondern um sein Nutzen.“ Wegmann

"В Брутализме не материал играет главенствующую роль, но его качества, а точнее его польза." Питер Смитсон

"В отличие от построек эпохи Брутализма материал этого подкаста не бетон, а придуманный и сгенерированый звук или следуя принципам архитектуры Брутализма его суть и польза." Wegmann


PODCAST #001_Wegmann [Brutalism]

Q/A:
- Where did your musical career start?
It was in 1996 in my home city Karlsruhe. Sitting in front of a minidisc player, me and my school buddies made loops recording them then on a tape. At that time already we played Garage House, Drum-n-Base and Ninja Tune shit creating crazy mix tapes with self-made samples and children’s records in the Studio from Nils, who runs the BigBait Records. Following a friend’s advice I laid my hands on an Atari computer from in my parents’ office. I installed Cubase, got synths and samples and from that time on there was no turning back.
- What genres influenced you the most?
There are too many to count … To be honest, the process of being influenced by music has never stopped. At the beginning, however, it was the 80s music from America, as I heard it playing out of American soldiers’ SUV’s, and film music such as Star Wars and The Never Ending Story - spherical stuff that touched me.
Then it was the east coast rap from the mid 90s, so-12 drums slick samples, the golden era and not to forget the entire experimental stuff from Ninja Tune and Rephlex. It really was other-worldly music coming over the sea from England. I also liked the „relaxation records“. I could listen to the sound of the rain for hours.
So, to sum things up, it was the time in the mid-, end 90s, as I was very open and influenceable at that time.
And wait a minute, I almost forgot Theo Parrish, the master of the masters!
- Could you describe your sound?
Well, it is always very subjective, a feeling I have when i’m making music, a search for good loops that carry me further till a music piece is created. It is hard to describe precisely, it just happens. Sometimes these are particular experiences, people, dreams or certain music that awake the urge in me to be creative. You could compare that with David Lynch.
The Scherbe-sound is not stressful, fast-paced but rather reflective and meditational without, however, giving up on loud drums and bass bins. I also like pitched-down sounds and when I randomly find some funny samples that loop away so to speak.
When I dj, I have more deliberate preferences that go away from the straight forward house sets. It is also depending on the kind of the event I play, the size of the club etc.
At the moment I love to play 7“ from the 80s thus going back to the my roots (Funk, Boogie, Reggae, Italo) but I’m also happy when I can play at chill out floors where there is no need of a beat or people dancing (the chill out rooms are back, aren’t they?).
- What are your sets about (musically or even narratively?)?
The mix is a very special experience. Last year I had the honor to open an outdoor floor of a 24h party (5 Years Uncanny Valley) at midnight. The guys from Uncanny asked we what kind of stuff I would like to play and I answered, Vaporwave (Wiki-Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporwave). They agreed and asked what that would be. I guess, a few people were surprised as the music didn’t correspond to their dancing expectations. I’ve been collecting masses of tracks on Bandcamp since 2014 that I just mixed together using two laptops and iTunes spicing everything up with effects from the good old Pioneer mixer.
I definitely wanted to beginn at the zero point starting with simple noises, nature, rain forest slowly bringing in melodies and recognizable loops and only after that beats and a certain amount of kitsch that is kind of a part of Vaporwave.
To a certain extent, it was important for me to present this genre or the internet-reddit-hype - whatever it is called in Germany - to a wider audience, just to play this kind of music. I, personally, was fascinated by this scene and the glitch-anime-segasaturn-aesthetics as well as by the its approach to unscrupulously use everything that sounds good when pitched down.
My podcast should be listened to when in the supermarket, smoking in the morning, when a video recorder hangs or when playing Pokemon shortly before being hit by a Range Rover!



PODCAST #002_SCHERBE [Uncanny Valley, Big Bait Records]

Some Q/A incl. Tracklist.

1.What does Kløne mean and how did you come up with that name? 
The artist name Kløne comes from the word clones. We chose it because we are twins and decided to get a pseudonym which is related to our relationship as twins brothers. 

2)How long have you been into music (not only production but also scene)?
It is since we’ve been kids. We enjoyed the music and partying, too. We’ve been into tech-house and techno scene for about 8 years now. It was back then that certain dj’s and labels drew our attention leading in us being sucked in into the scene and the festival culture in and around Europe. However, just attending festivals didn’t suffice, so we decided to take a further step buying a mixer and playing our own sets consisting of all types of the techno music ranging from deep and hypnotic to noisy, industrial and experimental stuff. At that time we decided that we want to create our own music. We rented a studio, got some equipment and dove into the world of music production. 

3)Has it always been electronic music or were you into something else as well?
The main focus of our work as dj’s as well as producers has always been electronic music, particularly techno music but we surely like any other genres as well.

4)What dj’s, bands, composers have been the most influential for you?
Speaking of techno that would be Richie Hawtin, Chris Liebing, Oscar Mulero , Jeff Mills, Len Faki, Ben Klock, etc..

5)How would you describe the set you’ve recorded for Silhouette Tapes?
Our set is about a techno sound more deep and ambient / experimental, a style we are very comfortable with, mixing broken rhythms and low bpm.

6)What kind of source material did you use for the set, vinyl or digital? 
It’s a fully digital set. We recorded it using Traktor + Xone K2 + Xone 92 + Roland Tr8.

7)How would you describe the Spanish techno (and club) scene?
We think that the techno and club scene in Spain slightly grows from year to year, but we’d wish it to be be at the avant guard like our neighboring European countries such as France, United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands, whose scene is much more advanced. 

8)What labels have you been working with so far? 
We’ve released some tracks on the French label Lunar Limited and the German label Kaputt-Musik. Next month Fartlek Records is releasing a VA featuring our track and we are currently working on a new dark-industrial-style EP. Stay tuned!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

dadaisme is a project of Valerii Shevchenko, Russian musician and social theorist based in Moscow. His artistic work is informed with certain aspects of dadaist worldview - its socially provocative character which in his case in invisible, non-destructive nihilism and contingency as an artistic method. He makes music of different kinds which might be gathered under the umbrella term “experimental electronic” and addresses social and cultural problems in his art. 
“WIR” concerns the twofold idea. Firstly, it critiques the instrumental appropriation of this proverb by political elites and governments which use it for translation of cultural codes, social norms and values beneficial for them. From mobilization of citizens to identity control “we” might serve as an instrument of manipulation. Secondly, the idea of “WIR” is to reverse-engineer the concept of “we” and to show that the social origin of its referent is a small social group and, more specifically, certain kind of social ties between members of that group, namely love and friendship, as I believe. “We” designates the primordial social bond which might be opposed to “we” of a state. 
The title and the cover artwork of the album are designed to illustrate this opposition. They refer to extreme historical points of use of this pronoun by totalitarian states of XX century. “Worker and kolkhoz woman” is reimagined to represent not the symbols of the state values - a sickle and a hammer as referring to a utopian labour state - which are imposed and necessary for everyone but the volunteer unity of people in small groups and those primordial social ties - love and friendship. 
“WIR” then is a soundtrack for such volunteer social unity of people.

Silhouette Tapes -  Live Soundtrack For Leviathan

"Girl from Earth", 2005 by Chikiss

In 2004, in Vyborg, a small border town between Russia and Finland, I've met two guys Alexander Dubrovin and Alexander Belkov at a local music festival, they played very strange music on canisters and cassettes, which were mixed through Soviet reverbs - black metal boxes that could create endless sound loops. I also was fond of experimental music, and we have united in their project 188910. Later, in the cottage of guitarist Alexander Dubrovin, in neighboring border town  Primorsk, we started to play my songs - me and him. First, we wrote everything on cassette decks, recorded experiments, noises, sound loops, then on my first computer in St. Petersburg. By that time I had a synthesizer from the 90s - Roland JW-50, which had good sound of a piano. As a pianist without a piano at that moment I lacked the possibility just to play. I composed many songs, especially early ones, on an acoustic instrument. I started to master my first Acid PRO music sequencer, practicing recording these songs. Sasha has joined me with the guitar, also using this Soviet reverb, which created a magical sound background on the album. We've played and recorded it in one session, we still did not understand how to mix, so the sound is so raw and sometimes naive. But this record is dear to me with its melodies, freshness and sincerity. Recording this album, we did not make any plans for our musical future, we did not discuss it at all. It was a pure thrill from music and a new opportunity to do everything by yourself at home, not to depend on anyone. Only when this record got to the respected and cool Russian producers “Yolochnie Igrushki”, and they did our first concert, we realized that the musical history of “Chikiss”, as a project, then still collective, began.
