After the LP Schlepper and several compilation cuts, Monstranz marks Strotter Inst.’s first full-length CD—a deep dive into his idiosyncratic, fully analog sound world. Every tone is generated from manipulated Lenco turntables—no prepared samples, no external audio—just motors, cartridges, surfaces, and hands turned into instruments. The journey moves from lo-fi rumble to concrète clicks and scrapes, swells into epic drones, fractures into multi-layered broken beats, and settles into gnarled bass meditations. Archaic mechanics meet contemporary pulse. The physical concept mirrors the music’s bridge between eras: The first track is embossed into the digipack—playable only on a turntable. The last track exists exclusively as a download. Between them sit eleven pieces orbiting a 33-minute polyrhythmic core—Strotter Inst. at full, hypnotic stretch. Monstranz is tactile, austere, and strangely alive: a monument to groove carved from rotating machines.
