Release Notice: rainer thelonius balthasar straschill: "Weird Specialist"



Title:
rainer thelonius balthasar straschill
Weird Specialist
 
Just in time for new year's eve, it's Moinlabs' great pleasure to announce yet another album release:
Weird Specialist contains material by Straschill from the timespan of early 2004 (just after the release of the last solo album Neinnein auf dem kleinen Weg) up to the present day. Just like on preceding albums, the material consists solely of freely improvised music using live looping technology.
 
As this is album is a set of material created independently of each other from a time span of close to four years, sometimes even stemming from different sources - in addition the studio tracks, we find two live tracks from the Y2K6 International Live Looping Festival and an outtrack from a kybermusik session - the approach seems just like that of a "compilation" album. It is obviously due to the skill of the editing "Weird Specialist" that this manifold of building blocks (the title track alone consists of ten individual recordings) form a homogenous, if slightly whimsical whole.
 
As with the last release, this album is available as a free download from www.jamendo.com - donations will nevertheless be gladly accepted, as well as any comments and online reviews. And those people who actually buy a real CD will no doubt be enchanted by the cover art, which has - as with the SAUBER! album - been done by Anna Bejenke.
 
And with that, I'd like to wish you a perfect start into the new year with that music,
 
your weird specialist,
 
            Rainer
