Birgit Ulher and Nicolas Collins are pleased to announce the release of Spark Gap, the first record of their ongoing duo project. Two trumpets, two different approaches: one electronic, the other acoustic. While Collins programmed a computer to imitate hacked circuits and wired to a speaker inside the instrument, Ulher uses metal sheets, radios, milk frothers and other everyday objects to extend her sound palette from brass to silicon. The opposed approaches yield oddly similar sonic results.
