about

Karl Naegelen and the Risser/Rühl duo share a common interest in the quest for new sounds and sound illusions.

Creating a confusion of sources, suggesting various acoustic spaces, evoking the sound of a sewing machine or a hard shoulder, making a rubbing sound sound like breath and making breath sound like creaking, this is the type of urge that stimulated collective research.

The grand piano had to become a wind instrument and the clarinet a water instrument ; the pianist had to play percussions on a flute and the clarinet player had to play pan flute with a Laotian mouth organ; we had to test bowls with various diameters and velvet squares with various thicknesses, favour half empty batteries for the vibrator, unroll a copper reel from an electric motor to obtain a wire with the appropriate thickness. From inventions to discoveries, from surprises to disillusions, this project is also linked with the absurd, thrilling, and alchemical quest for new tones.

Timeless

This is awesome - sounds like a lot more than two musicians, really listening to and engaging with each other, texturally, rhythmically, sonically, spatially. Music to immerse yourself in. Full of ideas. Slightly unexpectedly, quite often music you'd like to listen to with someone else in bed Andrew Webb
