First Review:
Vital Weekly/Frans de Waard

RECORDED IN THE FIELD BY... (CD compilation by Gruenrekorder)
On 'Recorded In The Field By...' there are nineteen tracks by well-known
people such as Chris Watson and Yannick Dauby, to lesser known ones as
Derek Holzer, Dronaement, [sic] to the majority of people I never heard
of
as Aaron Ximm, Dallas Simpson, Gabi Schaffner, Maksim Shentelev and
people
behind the label such as Lasse-Marc Riek and Costa Gröhn. Each of the
pieces is described in the booklet, which is probably the nicest thing
about it. It gives the listener the idea that it's not just a random set
of recordings, but actually a part of a bigger whole, cut out and made
into a composition. Which is nice, since I believe all of these pieces
have no electronic treatment afterwards. Besides the usual wind and
water
recordings, there is also a short piece of children singing or the
tunnel
sounds behind the Niagara Waterfalls. All in all quite a nice
compilation.


B:
Xylol /Stefan Funck
2 acoustic expeditions

Gr 037 > CD-R > 12EUR + 3EUR Package

Listen to mp3 and order under:
http://www.gruenrekorder.de/order/-xylol.en.htm

the title "xylol" was inspired by the strange acoustics that perhaps all
those may know who work with thinners... by working wit thinners like
xylol one experiences a state of very tight attention with a pinching
auditive reception, wich characteristics and mood led me to this piece
of
sound. the sorces for the sound are rain in my mobile home, drums and
partypeople at a festival, engines, walking at night and in the snow,
and
there are electronic sounds and feedbacks also. the photos on the cover
i
took at the festival, the main motive is the inside of a portable
toilet,
which acoustics are somekind of equal to those of a xylol deliria...
the second track "wasch" is simply based on the noise-emissions of my
washing-machine. this skeleton led me to expeditions into the audible
worlds of water, engine, clothing and waterwork-pipes. the sounds
produced
in long pipe-systems again brings my to xylol because of the similar
reception of the audio, and perhaps because of some similar
claustrophobic
feeling...

The first 12 CD-R with a Xylol supplement.
Mr. Funck painted them. They're all unique copies, of course.
