More Info

Der Mann ist immer wieder für ‚ne Überraschung gut! Nach der obskuren „Chanson Dada“ -Interpretation bemüht er auch hier wieder „fremdes“ Material, nämlich Stimmensamples von Deutschlands tja... nervigstem Poeten ? / Experimentalmusik-Legende ? Narziß & Goldmund in einem?? (unzutreffendes bitte streichen).
Wie auch immer, von BLIXA BARGELD merkt man beim Hören zum Glück nichts, dafür ergiessen sich hier endlose Soundschwälle aus den Boxen, als minmales Endlos-Summen & Brummen mit kaum hörbaren versteckten Microveränderungen darin, unglaublich langsam bauen sich dichte Drone-Wälle auf.....

“How on earth did the Hafler Trio get access to voice samples of Blixa Bargeld? It will probably remain written in the stars. But he did, and The Hafler Trio managed to get a double CD out of these recordings. People with a keen interest in the trio would of course
immediately ask: is this also about drones? Yes it is. On both CDs the sound is stretched out into pieces of an hour or so in length and
they are both thick, swirling pieces of drone music. On the first CD it's a particular phrase that Bargeld read whispering, hysterical and
ordinary - but rest assure: none of this can be recognized. On the second CD three meaningful vowels were taken and arranged to certain rules of Sanskrit. That says a lot, but what does it mean? Is it important to know what it means, or do we just take a deep breath and undergo what it is on offer here? I do the latter. Trying to get to the point of this is just something I am not capable of, I think. I don't want really, either. I look at the shape and judge it to be
very fine, very fine indeed - and to me that is all that matters. Just another damm fine addition.” [Frans de Waard, Vital Weekly]
