Neues Werk des Berliner Künstlers & Musikers auf dem feinen russischen Label WAYSTYX, welches inzwischen von Mikhail Tumanov betrieben wird. CASPAR geht hier (mal wieder) neue Wege, setzt fliessendes Wasser, Kirchenglocken und andere Feldaufnahmen ein, lässt einen „female robot“ BAUDELAIRE zitieren, um dann allmählich in industriellere Gefilde zu versinken, mit verhallten und wummernden Maschinen-Geräuschen, metallischem Quietschen & Zerren, und wieder the robot... experimenteller Industrial zwischen Maschinen- & Natur-„Noise“ und schwarzer Lyrik ! Spezial-Cover !

First of which “Benediction” and Replica are composed for a paintress from Quebeck/Canada, based on two field recordings (river & wood) in the canadian nature, used as the soundtrack during the vernissage of her paintings. 'Benediction' origines from the anthology Les Fleurs du Mal by Ch. Baudelaire spoken by the artist. purest drop of human prejudaces, fears, drawbacks essence heavy, humid and clouding impicated by the fistfull of various cuts of everyday life hypnotic song of far away syrene vibrant, graceful, controversive, whispering and shivering......” [label info]
