I did some searching myself and found the following info about Boris's upcoming release. Was also able to acquire a preview of the cover. Thought you guys would be interested. The cover is in the "COMPILATIONS" section of the Artwork Site. ARTWORK SITE: http://homepage.mac.com/jonathankamm/YelloSites/Menu36.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CD-A construction sonor Fieldrecordings by Bernd Schurer CD- B construction sonor 13 tracks by Luigi Archetti (Rune-Grammofon) Balduin (Crippled Dick Hot Wax) Boris Blank (Yello) Donze, Jean, Quennoz (Dolmen) Drumpet ErikM Fennesz (Touch/ Mego) Intricate (Spezialmaterial) Monolake (Imbalance) Günter Müller/Tomas Korber (For4Ears) Mahmoud Refat Seelenluft (Klein Records) Table construction sonor is a sonic journey beneath the alps. The basis of this conceptual album are the field-recordings on CD-A, which Zurichs musician an composer Bernd Schurer did at the tunnel construction sides at Gotthard und Lötschberg. CD B contains 13 tracks of wellknown and young artists of different musical genres, all based on this material. Coorespronding to this fact, the sounds are very different. As for Monolake, Seelenluft or Intricate the beat plays the leading role of the track, ErikM, Fennesz, Mahmoud Refat or Luigi Archetti do precision and slender arrangements with a more experimental note. Master Boris Blank did a easily poptrack, as his younger and talented college Balduin and with Tessins Table the tunnel now sounds a loungy place. The Jazz duo Drumpet from Uri did a real New-Jazz piece and Müller/Korber or Donze/Jean/Quennoz are improvising the tunnel by using elektronika and instruments. This album will give you an overview to contemporary musical work in electronica in Switzerland and other countries. construction sonor will take you on a sonic trip beneath the Alps. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Yello mailing list Yello@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/yello
