F23M-12: Field With Figures No. 1 - 4 / Rush!
F23M-12: Field With Figures No. 1–4 / Rush! is a distinctive entry in Another Timbre’s Berlin Series, sharing two worlds of experimental practice. In the first half, Christian Kesten and the late Mark Trayle create four pieces for voice and electronics. Kesten’s sound art blurs the line between vocal utterance and language: inhaled whispers, fricatives, murmurs, and spectral vowel shapes figure as events on a mutable sound field. Trayle’s electronics situate these gestures within shifting archit…

Thread, realized between Berlin in 2008 and 2009, brings together three like-minded experimentalists - Annette Krebs, Magda Mayas, and Anthea Caddy - with backgrounds in duo collaboration but fresh as a trio. Krebs’ prepared guitar, tapes, and mixing desk act as both generator and disruptor, her playful use of vocal fragments and sampled sounds adding surreal charge.

I/D/V 02 [GUITAR]
A series of 7” records of 1 minute tracks and lock grooves. Focus of each volume is on one particular instrument and on the ways in which invited artists address the specifics of duration as defined by the given format. Duration here is not considered as a mere quantity of time, but as the subjective relations that we establish within time’s dimension. Twelve participants to the first two releases contribute one minute-long track and two locked grooves (of 1.8 seconds at 33.1/3 rpm). Each record…
Kravis Rhonn Project
Radical collaboration between two of European improvisation's most innovative voices, recorded in Berlin in April 2008. Annette Krebs (guitar, mixing board, tapes) and Rhodri Davies (electric harp & electronics) created hours of raw material during sessions in Krebs's apartment, which she then spent months editing and mastering into this intriguing three-part suite. Krebs - one of contemporary improvisation's most distinctive and selective voices - has built her reputation through carefully chos…
