PIRX

Deleted scenes, the debut album by Marion Wörle aka Frau W (Laptop) and Maciej Sledziecki (Guitar) uses the vocabulary of sound-art just as instinctively as it does elements from psychedelia, noise and Krautrock. The electronic music of the 90s and 2000s is also bursting through every crack on this record. Refreshingly non-academic and equipped with a fine sense of humor they bring great diversity to the day. No one track compares to any other - each has its own very individual character. PIRX is an improvising working band, founded in 2004 by Marion Wörle and Maciej Sledziecki. The two musicians work as composers for film and contemporary music. They're also active as organizers and instrumentalists. Among other things, they are organizing the concert series NACHTJOURNAL ('night journal') in Cologne, a platform for musicians from the electronic field as well as those playing music on 'conventional' instruments. They are co-founders and driving force of the ZAM e.V. (Zentrum für aktuelle Musik / Platform for adventurous music). In 2007, they were artistic directors for the festival "computer.musik.instrument" which was part of the 'Music Triennale Cologne'. Besides, they are involved in the projects 'StadtKlangNetz' and 'nimm!' as lecturers.
