Domestic Hybrids #1

In VERTIGO TRANSPORT the experimental musicians Marta Zapparoli and Burkhard Beins explore uncharted electro-acoustic territories full of rhythmical detail and dark beauty. Incorporating a wide variety of machines the two musicians interact with each other in real time, but also with their site-specific environment. Cross-feeding their individual signals to each other adds further to the complexity of their intriguing musical encounters.

CONTAGIOUS aren't just a trio. They are a whole organism. The guts from the inside of a piano, the tonearms of turntables, the puffing of a trumpet, the pulse of various effect processors and the interaction of Andrea Neumann, Sabine Ercklentz and Mieko Suzuki grow together, forming an entity, which is continuously developing. Their drive is improvisation. Their ideal state is the constant tension between action and reaction, between electronics, acoustics and experiment. Not coincidentally, the tracks on the first Contagious album were named after hermaphrodites in the animal world. Neumann, Ercklentz and Suzuki play together like a living creature, which overcomes binary opposites and is ambivalent in the best sense of the word: as enigmatic as it is alive.
