V.A. (VARIOUS ARTISTS) (COMPILATIONS) — AUSGEW�HLTE GER�USCHE

"The 50th release by the aufabwegen label is also part of the edition elektronik of the Deutscher Musikrat. The extensive double CD compilation comes with a detailed booklet. The release links up the history of the aufabwegen label with a personal take on the evelotion of noise music in Germany. It traces the developments from the early cathartic powers of pure noise via bruitistic sound researches up to the formation of an aesthetic of noises themselves; a self conscious sound culture. This movement is illustrated for the listener in 29 subjectively selected tracks. The sounds
range from subtle ambient via dense collages and concrete sound landscapes on to rhythmic pieces. It comprises almost exclusively of unreleased or very rare to find material by all participating artists. The collection features
pieces by some of the founding projects of noise music as well as newer projects and younger musicians thereby shocasing a wide range of contemporary artistic positions in noise music. It is hoped that this broad
scope will draw new audiences to the magic of noise music.
