Audio Work
Black Truffle announce Uri Katzenstein's Audio Works, produced in collaboration with Holon's Centre for Digital Art. Spanning sculptural installation, performance, video art, and many other media, Katzenstein's absurdist, poetic, and often hilarious work made extensive use of sound and music.

OBEX
*2022 stock. Limited edition of 100 copies.* To start AMT and Tarab exchanged materials and objects. AMT exchanged a single sound sculpture for Tarab’s collection of small objects. This material exchange led to activity. AMT manually manipulated, Tarab also, but more often than not he placed the sculpture in situations and let them work on it. Once again exchanges took place, this time of audio material. Elements where then selected and arranged and further rearranged; some left untouched and so…

Dialogue____Gideon's Disease
The present work's underlying concept is based on processes of corrosion, suppression or decomposition of time-based information as well as their mergence, which may result in formal reshaping through random and uncontrollable events.  Loosely relating to the geological metasomatic process, the magnet coating is carefully removed from audiotapes that were augmented with innumerable sounds beforehand. Hence, this particular magnet coating is divided into small fragments that eventually appear to …
Mts (Tape)
MTS is made of audio materials collected during the summer of 2016; the two tracks combine and try to reproduce the muteness of documents and various misperceptions. Limited edition of 70. Elisha Morningstar produces abstract sound pieces through manipulation of different kind of sources.

These two exhibitions are different pacts between the audible a…
Opus 17
* Limited Edition. Remastered, improved sound quality * There is no artist, working in the contemporary field of experimental sound, that is more important than the French composer Eliane Radigue. She is a shining light, who, for more than half a century, has quietly blazed trails with a body of work that is as creatively visionary as it is sublime. Back in the 2010s, Alga Marghen launched a crucial archival series, dedicated to some of Radigue’s earliest and previously unavailable works, many p…

Atmosphæram
Tip! Atmosphæram inaugurates a new series of hyper-focussed solo studio recordings from Marco Fusinato, each consisting of two side-long pieces exploring noise and feedback, respectively. Documenting his guitar running through an array of distortion pedals amplified by two full stacks made up from his collection of Hiwatt DR103 Heads running at full volume, these recordings capture both the physical immensity and the glittering textural detail of Fusinato’s assaultive approach. Massive amplifica…

Masterpiece / Spectator
Lucky restock, few copies available Within our little bubble of avant-garde, experimental, and underground sound, with its endless web of recordings from the past and present day, it can be easy to forget that these contexts are rarely as hermitic as they seem. Many of the great creative accomplishments of the last century have been a result of interdisciplinary conversation - the marriage between image, action, and sound - collaborations reaching toward new forms of “total” art. This is partic…
