You are not the only one who likes this stuff. I too am a big fan of the Kompakt label. If you like Total 2 there are a whole bunch of other albums you need to pick up. Actually, almost anything they put out is quality in my opinion. I'm also a big fan of Pansonic. They were the ones who gave me the minimal bug that I have now. They're pretty interesting live too if you ever get a chance. I'm not too familiar with the others that were mentioned in your email so maybe you can tell us what to expect. Is it in the same minimal vein? (c) np: mark broom - mix At 02:46 AM 01/12/2001 -0500, christian adam hresko wrote:

quoted 1 line vert : the koln konzert

>>vert : the koln konzert

Something I'd posted a bit back regarding vert's k?ln konzert, which is a beautiful minimalist-influenced (but not minimal) platter on sonig that doesn't seem to have caught on as much as it should have, IMO. Vert's other work, excepting their track on the sonig comp, veers toward more standard--though pleasant enough-- K?ln-style squeezed beats and DSPing.: ---- I don't remember anybody bringing this up in any detail, so I just thought I'd mention that vert's "k?ln konzert" on sonig is a fantastic little piece of work. It's basically a reconceived/recontextualized Keith Jarrett concert (Jarrett's own K?ln konzert, natch) that uses Jarrett's own or similar piano themes, but loops them and subjects them to cut-up jobs, sound treatments, and added noise in lovely, very well-considered ways. Much of it's a bit reminiscent of some Nobukazu Takemura, but the warmth and depth of tone is almost unprecedented (to my ear) in this kind of consciously mechanistic composition. I've been grinning over this one for a little over a month now. I can't say I've ever been a huge fan of Keith Jarrett himself, but even the overfamiliar theme quoted on the second and last track of vert's version stirs up warm flush and gooseflesh. This record sounds like a beautifully-timbred piano being played in an echoey concert hall that's currently under construction, with little bits of noise leaking in and out through the empty, wide open spaces. Nice, that.
