Sunken Suns (excerpt)
mesh of the Arab Apocalypse by E. Adnan and el marikh by Mashrou3 Leila.
Originally created in future friend/ship with Keith Hennessy.
This excerpt is part of a broader project on what I call oracle poetry, made in the spirit of Glissant’s call for a ‘’Tout-Monde’’. The soundscape is made out of mounds of field recordings containing levantine queer pop music, street conversations, archives, people making love, arguing, crying in Beyrouth, Damascus, Deir el Zor, Berlin, New York, Søndre Sandøy, Montréal and San Fransisco.
"Before I throw the word “sound artist” in here, let me just say that this stuff is exciting to me, which I cannot say about most of the stuff I would tag with that. I cannot find a better expression, however – so
be it. Regardless if you are familiar with the Echtzeitmusik scene or
not, you should in all honesty see these two play together." Cesip Xynic
WATERKIL Axel Dörner & Jassem Hindi
LP / Corvo Records
"The listener is beckoned into the quiet – encouraged to creep into the
absence and perceive the sound close up (...) The tension is agonising and delightful." ATTN Magazine
"Dargebotene Musique Concrète besticht vor allem durch ihren
Abwechslungsreichtum, wofür sich die eingesetzten Utensilien
Verantwortlich zeigen, aber auch die handwerkliche Klasse von Axel Dörner & Jassem Hindi, wodurch “waterkil” in alle Richtungen (noisig, organisch, usw.) divergiert." Kulturterrorismus
"Magnifique rencontre qui efface toute notion d'instrument, de geste, de
musique (?) pour développer un champ magnétique qui attire autant le son
que le silence." Metamkine
