Rsn, Baltzer

An aporetic interrelationship is a state where two irreconcilable components are connected and meaningfully complement each other. The four improvisations explore the hopelessness of being shaped by contradictory forces from which one cannot escape. The dynamism that comes from getting started, trying things out, letting go and playing together is often phenomenal. Sounds and songs can be created that reproduce the vibrations of the live moment of the recording identically.

This energy and atmosphere is perfectly reflected in ‘aporia #1’, the collaboration between guitarist Baltzer and rsn. Guitar and bass interweave, swell follows swell, scraps of melody creep into the background, a drone emerges, everything disintegrates. The songs bring the moment of creation to life. Sometimes you dream yourself into post-rock, then you turn towards drone and finally find yourself in a wide and open ambient landscape.
