new on Alien Transistor: SCHNITT

We’re delighted to announce the upcoming album “Wand” by Moritz Illner & Markus Christ aka ‘SCHNITT’!
Check out their first track ‘SAUM’ which just got released via yours truly in collaboration with Kollaps records.
Illner and Christ started improvising with vinyl-cutting-machine, bass clarinet, trumpet, prepared flugelhorn, rhodes piano, analog synthesizer, some distortion pedals, turntables and drum set in 2012. Main attraction is Illners` vinyl-cutting-machine. For improvised parts the duo is creating live-cut-vinyls. Composed and full arranged tracks, often set on motorik drumming, complete their live sets. Their repetitive loops will remind you of jazz, noise and postrock and although of musique concréte and minimal music. Impressing soundscapes in the range of sizzeling silence and heavy walls of sound.
