released July 10, 2022

With this album, the labels attenuation circuit, run by EMERGE, and Grubenwehr Freiburg, run by Grodock, continue their new GFAC series of split tapes, all using recycled tapes. They are aimed at pairing new or lesser known artists with already more widely connected practitioners in the experimental underground scene.

In this case, Doc Wör Mirran are certainly the more established act, with more than three decades of recording (and occasionally performing live) in the international experimental DIY underground. On this recording, the Fürth-based 'core group' of the recent years in DWM's long history - mastermind Joseph B. Raimond, Michael Wurzer, and Stefan Schweiger – team up with Adrian Gormley, whose sax has become an increasingly regular component of recent DWM releases now that he's based on the same side of the Atlantic as his bandmates (namely, in Berlin). Their side-long track “Sparse” is aptly named in that it is based on very minimalistic ideas: play a limited number of sounds, use both lots of silence and lots of repetition. A completely different approach from the more 'krautrock-style' harmonic meandering by DWM in recent years, this fascinating track kind of feels like Steve Reich meets The Fall. However, instead of misanthropic rants you get wonderfully lush sax lines – so it's also a nice reflexion on the old music vs. noise game.

Improvising trombonist and sound artist Felix Mayer hails from Hamburg and offers a montage of parts from his performance 'archived love' for zither, objects, electronics and participating listeners, during the collective radio happening 'Radioinsel' at 'Hinterconti' gallery. The mix of harmonium-style drones and apparently phoned-in voices of people arguing with the police and commenting on their (magic?) mushroom dishes has all the trappings of a séance in which living people are turned into “paranormal tape voices”. Aren't we all ghosts, or at least going to be ghosts eventually? Fits perfectly between Laurie Anderson's “O Superman” (the album) and Asmus Tietchens' “Das Fest ist zu Ende. Aus.”
