BACK IN STOCK Price (incl. 19% VAT): €13.00 Warning: Currently we do not have this album in stock! More Info Vorsicht, kein Schönklang! Sehr spröde und SEHR minimal geht INGRID ENGARAS hier mit ihrem selbst entwickelten Instrument "VIBRADISC" vor - und schafft einen Raum aus vibrierendem Metall, mit "brechenden" Drone-Tönen, ruhig & summend.... “Vibradisc - an instrument invented by Ingrid EngarŒs (born in 1968), made for carefully selected live concert situations. A motor generates vibrations against a huge copper plate which in turn generates its own sound. Its deep and flowing bass frequencies trigger the listener to undergo individual experiences which may be comfortable, strange, erotic and rumbling. The playing technique is closely related to automatic writing. As the instrument can, (and should) never be fully controlled, the playing sessions are always subject to random forces. All aspects of the concert situation, such as the architecture, atmosphere, audience and the instrumentalist's setting, impact on and interact with Vibradisc. Every playing session or concert is unique and can never be predicted. Nor can the listener's experience be controlled. The sound of Vibradisc is to be used in each listener's very own personal way."
