Highdelberg
Guitarist Ax Genrich began his career in 1970 with a brief stint with German prog-kraut rockers Agitation Free. There he was able to develop his improvisational style, but was soon poached by Mani Neumeier to join Guru Guru. Together with bassist Uli Trepte, Genrich and Neumeier enjoyed their first major successes and were soon regarded as the new figureheads of Krautrock, releasing Känguru in 1972, a milestone in the genre. After four years and four albums, Ax Genrich left Guru Guru because the…
Prey detection in web building spiders
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* Second release from L. Linebacker. Needy guitar handling and eventually a talkative radio recorded directly to tape. Only rough edits and simple reamps done afterwards.
I’m going to have to ask you to
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* One long composition for each side. Reminding me of an ultra-stretched version of the beautiful interplays on talktalk’s spirit of eden. Brittle percussive repetitions and muted trumpets slowly maneuvering into lovely tensions.
Compiled loops & experiments
*Dubbed on new ferro tapes* Tape loops, wind-up gramophone manipulations, and other audio fascinations. All of these sounds share the fact that they didn’t fit into any other release. Collected throughout 2024 and 2025, they were set aside on my harddrive. This is a documentation of scrap material, assembled in rough form.

2025 stock Along with the Boredoms, Naked City and very few others, this amazing drums/bass duo are masters of quick-change, stop/start tempos, time-signatures and textures.

Masuda's favorites are James Brown and Fred Frith.
Hardcore, art rock, psych, heavy metal, funk and lots more - if Ruins have heard it, they are likely to…

Unfall
In an 'ecological' process of recovery and reuse of musical materials and obsolete electronics, 'Unfall' (German for “accident”) lays its research focus on the encounter between improvised music, electroacoustics, free jazz, dixieland, and minimalism, filtered and recomposed through techniques typical of musique concrète. Referencing Burroughs' cut-ups and methods derived from tape music, 'Unfall' experiments with intertextuality, establishing a dialogue between seemingly distant musical languag…
