B�TTNER, GREGORY — Schwebende Lasten

The basic sounds of the pieces were all created with a Buchla and some with a Serge analog modular synthesizer during my residency at EMS Stockholm, 2013. After this part of the sound creation (and with some files further digital processing), I played the results through different external loudspeakers, which I prepared with resonant objects such as tin cans, tubes, paper, metal plates, wooden boxes or small objects. This mixture of acoustic and electro-acoustic sounds was then re-recorded and assembled into the final compositions.



"..."Schwebende Lasten" is an album of fragile architectures - sonic structures suspended delicately in the air, each note and texture balanced as if on the edge of collapse. It�s a testament to the art of tension and resonance, a suite of electroacoustic compositions that transforms the mechanical into the poetic and the inert into the vividly alive.� (�)�soundscapes that seem both alien and eerily familiar - like listening to the echoes of a machine dreaming of its origins....� [CHAIN D.L.K.]
