Furt

Country: United Kingdom

Furt is an electronic duo formed in London in 1986 by the composer Richard Barrett and the improviser Paul Obermayer. The two build dense, detailed pieces mostly from sampled and processed sound, mixing free improvisation with systematic composition. Furt is known for its long-running live electronic work and as the core of the larger ensemble fORCH. Furt released Defekt in 2002, Dead or Alive in 2004 and Omnivm in 2006.

JDK PROD.
Furt is Richard Barrett and Paul Obermayer and "angel" is one of their seminal works recorded at STEIM from May to October 1995.  It is dark but flippant, abstract but coherent. Annoying if you expect the expected. Delightful if you like a challenge.
