RLW – Contours Imaginaires ‎(10inch colour vinyl)

After a break SUBSTANTIA INNOMINATA is back with a terrific 3-track 10″ by the
prolific german composer RLW (who started his activities back in the early 80’s and
was the main member of the legendary german experimental outfit P16.D4). The
whole composition is based on only few seconds of piano-sounds and vocals (the rest
is “imagination”) and the track-titles & pieces offer strong inter-relations in a
complex way.
The used sounds develop through imagination & decay (“denaturing transformations”)
and appear in the pieces with different emphases. The “classical” piano-sounds and
its highly processed permutations are set in contrast with the highly emotional voice-
material, like entering a convoluted labyrinth of voice-frazzles, drones & fragmented
strange sounds…
Being on a microlevel (“phantasized cell”), judging thedecay of shadows. Are these
the memories of single cells? The shadow of abrasion-processes? The slow decay of
imaginations? A fantastic work where conceptual thoughts and emotionally driven
acoustics merge in a perfect way.
