NORBERT MOSLANG & ANDY GUHL: DRAHT (VERLAG VEXER – SWITZERLAND 1987) MC ****** condition (cassette/box/book): mint / near mint / mint ****** very rare cassette, housed in a cardboard box together with a 7x10-inch picture booklet and released as a hand-numbered artist edition limited to 300 copies by verlag vexer, by the duo later known as voicecrack, “a pair of troublemakers from switzerland who explore the sounds of waste - literally - by creating orchestras out of broken consumer electronics and useless everyday objects.”. about this particula release: "draht, a piece for 20 meters of amplified steel wire strung across the length of the grabbenhalle, st. gallen. played by möslang and guhl with sticks, violin bows, metal objects and their bare hands, the piece evoked the spirit of a raw electronic music, subsuming the performance space with shrieks, moans and interfering frequencies. draht dates back to 1980 and was one of the duo's longest running performances, still being played until 1989. verlag vexer, an arts publishing house in st. gallen, documented the 1987 performance as a cassette with accompanying booklet. in light of draht, it is interesting to note that möslang has worked as a violin builder since 1974.” musician jim o'rourke describes them very well: “previous to voice crack, norbert moslang and andy guhl were longhair troublemakers on the european improvising scene, more power to them. their first record deep voices pictured the boys rocking out on a variety of very small percussion and very large reeds. there are 'home-made instruments', not so odd for the time, there was hugh davies, michael waisvisz even evan parker was rockin an oscillator. but somewhere in st. gallen, switzerland, these guys were doing their homework”. ****** unregistered priority mail is about $13 to europe and $20 to the rest of the world (except for $27 to oceania), while registered airmail is about $18 to europe and $24 to the rest of the world (except for $32 to oceania). winning multiple items can make you save on postage. preferred payments is paypal, although other options may be available. thank you for looking.price rating
