The source material for these recordings, produced between 2007 and 2009, originates from found objects and treated acoustic instruments such as cello, viola, double bass (Nikolaus Gerszewski), bass clarinet (Nicolas Wiese), as well as conga, cymbal, wood, paper, marbles, wallpapering table and chains. Further sounds have been produced using my voice and limbs. A basic rule for my work with digital tools is to maintain the liveliness of the source material within the structure of my compositions. Yet, the newly created elements of sound differ considerably from the original recordings.' Oliver Peters (1970) lives and works in Berlin. He begun producing electronic music in the 1990s, and has been record-ing and performing as as EVAPORI since 2002.
