Lukas Matthaei – voice processing

Milena Kipfmüller – field recording, Klangregie, spacialisation

Klaus Janek – doublebass, tuba, processing

Started developing sound and acoustic projects as a trio after the development of a performative project (“Im Apparat der Kriege” with mattahei&konsorten) where sound and urban space were used as a foil for examination of the German participation in todays wars. After that, during a year long process, it became a radio piece that we perform live with different local guests as speakers, therefore scanning different environments and possible interpretations.

This work leaded us to a profound development of theatrical, radio and soundwork that deals with aspects of processing of musical material, field recordings and language based sound, that, interconnected, change their original definition and become a net of sounding meanings. By the use of the compositional and performative strategies these are constantly redefined.

Therefore our work looks always for a strong relation to the environment in its material, acoustic and political context.
