ZEITKRATZER & Keiji HAINO
“Electronics”

“The Berliner Zeitung wrote about zeitkratzer’s cooperation with Keiji Haino, one of the most renowned japanese noise artist: the result was mind-blowing. Haino made music on the guitar and on the drums, on electronic devices, on two Theremins and with his wunderfully changeable tenor; zeitkratzer infolded him, pushed him away, embedded him in noise and carried him through the sound space like on atomising waves. Only one thing did not exist: the reconciliation between the soloist and his ensemble, which would have denied the differences in traditions and styles; The greatness of the sound, the richness of his textures was a result purely of the contrast and its dynamic.” zeitkratzer continued the cooperation with Keiji Haino and performed with him also at Donaufestival Krems. This CD contains the music from the legendary Volksbühne concert – ending in standing ovations.”
