Immersion
"This was a unique experience recording for me in a studio that I have had several fantastic experiences in over 20yrs. We have not performed, had not rehearsed and were formulating a sonic world in real time as the takes proceeded. Copious light came into the room and never left! I believe we have more than a book within each of us. Sometimes a day provides a sentence. An hour provides a paragraph. A week provides a comma, and a minute provides a whole page. As Wayne Shorter says ‘Our instrumen…

because they were conceived with the mouth as if they were to be spoken in tongues
murmurs de tête:
“murmurs” and not “murmures” to recall murmur, the demon that teaches philosophy and keeps murmuring up in the head
Pax Westphalica
*200 copies limited edition* While listening to old [Multer]-recordings for a potential 25 years anniversary edition we were highly impressed by the direct two track recording of this concert in 1999 due to both the concentrated and quiet audience and the setup of some of our songs, which were preversions for the following Neskt-10” release. All in all this concert is very intense, so instead of the anniversary edition we decided to release this concert; we hope you like it too…
