«'Abisalle glick’ is a 40 minute composition by Tristan Shorr & James
Alaska recorded in June
2010 in ‘Das Glocken Lichtspiele’ a disused cinema in Erlangen, Bavaria.
Alaska & Shorr were working at the time on a live soundtrack for a
series of performances with Tadam Company at Arena festival of the arts. The performances, which
lasted five hours each, centered around themes of old age, memory and obsolescence. In order
to create the live soundtracks for each performance, fragments of sound were taken from
locally sourced vinyl L.P.'s, cassettes and gramophone records. These were blended with
field recordings and monologues from an earlier reminiscence project, and fed into an old
16 track analogue mixing console. The process was intense, and left its mark on the two
composers, as each day called
for long and arduous periods of creativity and concentration.
This session was recorded on a day when the performers and
choreographer were taking a rest.
James and Tristan settled into the empty space of the Glocken's main
hall, and improvised,
creating a soundscape using gramophone, cassette players, turntables,
field recorder and mixer.»
