2009 release ** "This is an early collaboration of Multi-award-winning Icelandic cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir (Oscar, Grammy etc. for the original scores of Joker, Chernobyl etc.) and Dirk Dresselhaus (Schneider TM, die ANGEL, Locust Fudge, faust etc.) who met each other at Club Transmediale 2004 in Berlin and started to hang out, party, play boccia and record electroacoustic improv-sessions at Dirk’s Construction Site Studio. Their extended experimentations led to a combination of Hildur’s skills on acoustic instruments (cello, zither, saw, accordion etc.) and Dirk’s ways of electronic manipulation (effect-feedbacks, realtime sampling, modular system, filtering etc.), setting a foundation for deep musical communication and organic sound worlds which are free floating, time-transcending and morphable in many different sonic directions. In 2007 they played their first live performance at Volksbühne, Berlin, opening for Pan sonic & Keiji Haino. These sessions were also the start for later collaborations in bands and projects such as Angel, Schneider TM and several film scores. Good Sound The result of the first three recordings is Mr. Schmuck’s Farm’s album ‚Good Sound’, which was originally released in 2005 on Eric Mattson’s Canadian label Oral. The wide range of the pieces reaches from harmonical influences of balkan music, gentle/harsh feedbacks combined with organic/mechanical structures to pure electricity, triggered by wood and steel...all elements influencing each other. These instant compositions were created by following the sound without any preconceptions."
