More Info « Gewidmet allen Stille-Suchern » .....In der Tat erscheint es kaum vorstellbar, etwas softer wallenderes als GENMAICHA zu kreieren.... MIRKO UHLIGs Projekt, sonst eher für weirden Surrealism bekannt, hier voll im Unterwasser-Drone abgetaucht.. ..extrem fliessend und sich stets neu verwandelnd.. “Aalfang Mit Pferdekopf is the somewhat strange name of german eclectic Mirko Uhlig's surreal exploring solo project... Mirko usually surrounds himself with a line-up of collaborators for his varied sound excursions... In the wake of a strong experimental legacy in his own country, and based upon a sort book of "no rules", these soundscapes mostly drift from loose improvisations using an array of different instruments, sometimes even incongruous, & field recordings... This could suggest an heterogeneous, shambolic ambience, but the resulting pieces are often surprisingly focused & intense... So far, Aalfang Mit Pferdekopf has a discography of several self-released discs, as well as MP3s (notably, an EMERGE remix...) and a recent release on EINZELEINHEIT... but also scheduled are already a 7" for DRONE, and a 3" cd-r on the ever tasteful TAÂLEM... On "Genmaicha...", an halo of vapours float above a sea green basin, and opening up the thick silence, a rain song rises, circling, humming like a soundtrack to a nocturnal "Aguirre"... a ghost in the moist air... meshes of alluvium bringing you back to a place of deep calm... "Genmaicha..." ceaseless churns, filtering its own echoes, exuding the murmurs of bamboo fountains, drawing an exotic postcard from neverland where shrouded in mist and oblivion, we inhale celestial magnitude, a glimpse of a Whole... "Genmaicha..." is like an audio-ceremonial to get rid of the superfluous... a digest of essential fluid... “ [label info]
