VINYL LISTENING SESSION / RELEASE EVENT

Corvo Records is delighted to present:

Listening session and artist talk for the upcoming LP
ANNA CLEMENTI & THOMAS STERN - Doppelmoppel, poems by Kurt Schwitters

"From pure poem recital and cut-up sound poetry eruptions to vintage analogue Space Echo rhythms, loops, synthesizers and even pop quotations, Clementi and Stern put their hands on the poetic foundations of 20th century modern art, extracting the spirit of Kurt Schwitters’ „Merz-Kunst“ and moulding it into a sound poetry album."

“(…)The short, punchy tracks are guaranteed to catch listeners off guard.”
— A Closer Listen (USA)
