Brainwave Music No. III
On October 30, 2021, Brainwave Music No. III was recorded live as part of a series of ten groundbreaking Brain Wave sound installation performances by Ilpo Väisänen and Dirk Dresselhaus (die Angel). The event took place in the evocative setting of the Life on a Leaf House in Turku, Finland.

Entropien I
Pan Sonic's Ilpo Väisänen, Dirk Dresselhaus (Schneider TM) and Oren Ambarchi break down to the soul of noise with a new album dedicated to Mika Vainio. If you’re into Vainio, KTL or Ilpo’s brilliant solo work under his own name or as Liima / Piiri, this one's a doozy. Collectively, die Angel model a complex physicality through raw, elemental inputs, exploring a flux of reactive feedback processes and mutating, unstructured sonic states generated from crackling fusions of electronics, drums, elec…
Ass
LP version. Includes CD. Three guitarists, three generations, one album. Günter Schickert, Jochen Arbeit, and Dirk Dresselhaus are all renowned Berlin guitarists.

Their artistic approaches may differ according to their diverse musical backgrounds, yet what they have in common is a fundamental in…

Reinhold Friedl studied mathematics and music, won scholarships and international commissions, and built up the ensemb…
