Stefan Roigk
Stefan Roigk, born in 1974, is a Berlin-based artist who studied fine art with a focus on sound in Hannover under Ulrich Eller. Sound is the starting point of his practice, which moves between acousmatic composition, installation, graphic scores and text-sound pieces, often built from collaged everyday fragments. Since 2010 he has worked regularly with the visual artist Daniela Fromberg, with whom he made the LP Unfamiliar Home for Edition Telemark. He belongs to the collective Errant Sound, and his releases include Sprachmusik on Tochnit Aleph.
Jenseits Der Wand
*300 copies limited edition* "Jenseits der Wand" is the latest CD-release by Berlin-based multi-disciplinary artists Daniela Fromberg and Stefan Roigk, which results from two walk-in sound installations, which were realized in 2021 and 2022.
While one focuses on the diverse acoustic dimension of urban life with all its obscure and often indecipherable noises behind your own four walls, the other deals with the specific soundscape of a recycling center, which is created from the supposedly worthl…
Sketches of Laugh and Decay
Very nice artists' book from Stefan Roigk. The musique concrète composition "Sketches Of Love And Delay" continues the multilayered black and white illustrations of the book "Sketches Of Laugh And Decay". It reveals the relationship between exclusively graphical scores and formulated sound collages. From the series Art & Theory of Künstlerhäuser Worpswede, Vol. 10.

Unfamiliar Home
A collaborative exploration of domestic space turned strange. Fromberg and Roigk transform the sounds of home into unsettling, poetic territories. Field recording meets electroacoustic composition - the familiar becomes alien, the mundane becomes mysterious.
Sprachmusik
New electro-acoustic text-sound composition by Berlin based fine artist Stefan Roigk. The radio play like combination of poetic lectures, vocals treatments, concrete sounds and deep vocal drones is based on several live recordings an performances made between 2012 and 2015.
Worte wie Schall und Raum
All tracks deal with the concept to translate subjective experiences with sound into poetry. the poetic lectures and multichannel installations contain descriptions of sounds, background noises and musical structures and the recipient creates his own mental soundscape by imagining these discribed sounds. this process deals with the difficulty of accurate sound descriptions and our subjective perceptions and experiences of sound.The CD comes with 8 photocards in A5 format and was recorded in 2015…
The Rising Of Matteo
New composition by Berlin-based sound artist Stefan Roigk. "The Rising Of Matteo" is a highly dynamic and eclectic ride between directed feature, audio-art and faked diary. Out of field-recordings made during an artist-residency in Milano (at O') and the audio material of his recent installations, Roigk molds spatially complex and overlapping plattforms for tedious noises playing sonic protagonists in an exclusively acoustic audible theatre piece. The hypnotic swarms of organic chants, cascades …
