Mich Gerber – Drifting Clouds

When we observe the sky, we notice that clouds are subject to constant change. A cloud forms when certain complex physical and feedback processes favor it, and dissipates when the disintegrative processes prevail. In between, it is constantly changing, always in motion, being distorted, condensed, shaped, and reshaped. And perhaps we wonder: What was there before? Where were the clouds when the sky was steel blue? What remains afterwards? Where do they go when they dissolve?...

OUT Session [recordings]

OUT Sessions are extraordinary music in extraordinary places in surround quality. These live sound bubbles are a surprising, non-hermetic, acoustically new reality in a unique context. Since 2018, Werner Hasler & Carlo Niederhauser have further developed this site-specific format and staged it on alpine pastures, high-rise rooftops, in a crop circle at a running marshalling yard, on a ride at nightfall, in the succulent house of the botanical garden, on the solar ship with binaural headphone sound, hexaphonically on the lakeshore and...

PLESS – Midnight Buffet

‘Midnight Buffet’, the third album by the duo PLESS, revolves around themes such as opulence, hedonism and individualism. A subsequent counterpoint to the debut ‘Hypernormal’ (’22) and the digital release ‘Technidolor’ (’23). The retreat of the individual into the smallest possible space with as little dissonance from the hostile outside world as possible. Your own little utopia, your personal customized hell. Where something is lacking, the missing thing is made up in pure fantasy or made whole again adding a fitting prosthesis. Somewhat more refined in resolution, emotionally more accessible. References to 90s Electronica, Synthwave, film scores, West Coast hip......

Annie Aries – It’s Not Quiet In The Void

It’s Not Quiet In The Void, by Annie Aries, takes you within the warm reaches of an expanse. Piercing you with softened shards of sound like sea glass, and high voltage threads woven into thick cord. Dawn, turning tangerine and bristling with potential. A slow lunge, undeniable change, an unveiling, recognition, intangible certainty like meaning within a dream, a threshold....
