finally ; a way to hear a full mirror album without investing upwards of $80 in an “artist’s edition(which i’m all for - but only when coupled with a “mass market” issue such as this) ... this is just a gorgeous blend of drone-guitar epiphany supplied by h.n.a.s.’ christoph heeman, ferial confine’s andrew chalk, and andreas martin.
robot press release...
originally released in a lp edition of 600 numbered copies.

first 100 pressed on orange vinyl.

newly re-mastered cd version makes available (again) one of heemann and chalk's most peculiar, early aural odysseys. for their fifth project, nightwalkers, mirror teamed-up with andreas martin (mimir member and multi-instrumentalist extraordinaire) for a set of pieces that could well be their most adventurous and bizarre still yet. the result is an incredibly mysterious series of turbulent and richly spacious explorations that is curiously active, but at the same moment appears suspended in time. the subtle inclusion of rhythmic elements with sustained tonalities reveals ominous, distant landscapes and hallucinogenic excursions into further uncharted territories.

now available on cd in a full color digipak, reproducing the original album artwork and insert.

june 2010 release ; entirely elegant re-issuing/ re-packaging / re-brandishing of this seminal 1999 collection of audio-works, originally issued throughout the 90s via a coterie of small-run vinyl editions, all showcasing the solo & collaborative work of brothers & mirror / h.n.a.s. members andreas martin & christoph heemann ...

this is an expert-level mix of contemporary electro-acoustic minimalism & musique concrète styles (heemann’s doing) laced with gorgeous electric & acoustic guitar playing (ditto martin) that channel both the more rustic end of the 70skrautrock” spectrum and/or the hörpsiel & tape-collage that came out of the wdr in the 80s ...

this new version comes in a nice stoughton mini-gatefold sleeve with a booklet reprinting the original record covers (martin’s “doppelpunkt vor ort” is still one of my favorites) ; if you want to hear heemann at his mid-period best, this a fantastic place to start & anyone currently enamored with mark mcguire’s music owes it to themselves to check out andreas’ tracks herein, all borne of the same acoustic guitar / loop-box conventions ... highly recommended !!!

christoph heemann & andreas martin
'lebenserinnerungen eines lepidopterologen' 2cd

unavailable for over 10 years, this new edition of "lebenserinnerungen eines lepidopterologen" ("memoirs of a lepidopterist") collects the collaborative and early solo works of andreas martin and christoph heemann as an extensive 2cd retrospective. moving between minimalist guitar compositions, tape-music narratives, and an array of cascading electronics, each of martin and heemann's solo recordings blend seamlessly within the milieu of their collaborative work. while one can hear how this forged the groundwork for much of the late-period h.n.a.s. material, the work here took the vision further, and helped shape a path toward their respective solo endeavors.
included are compositions from their first solo releases: martin's "doppelpunkt vor ort" (1993) and heemann's-"uber den umgang mit umgebung und andere versuche" (1991), each originally released as small edition 10" vinyl. also featured is a prime selection of previously unreleased material, obscure 7" tracks, and their collaborative opus from the (h.n.a.s.) "ach, dieser bart!" lp (1988).

this deluxe set includes two additional tracks (not appearing on the previous edition), remastered audio, and fully restored visuals. all packaged in a beautiful mini-lp gatefold jacket with an updated 4-page booklet. over 100 minutes of music covering the years 1987-2000.

graced by the artwork of christoph heemann.

2007 release ; reissue of the debut album from mimir - at this stage a quartet involving christoph heemann & andreas martin, edward ka-spel, and silverman - originally issued by the flabbergast label as a cd and double lp in 1990 / 1991, respectively ...

people tend to rep the o’rourke-era mimir sides as their defining moments, but i ride quite hard for this early statement, hinging largely on heemann’s contributions ...
streamline press release...

a completely remixed / reworked version of the first mimir album which was originally recorded between 1989 / 90 and released in 1991 : edward ka-spel, andreas martin, silverman and christoph heemann concentrate on a variety of analog synths and krautrock guitars.

...immediately after he caught sight of the lights marking the town, he pressed the ejection button and felt himself flung upward with a greater violence than he had expected. for a moment he was enveloped in darkness; then, as his body spun, he saw the lights of the town again. his fall was slackening and suddenly, as the chute popped open to its full extent, he was jerked sidewise and began swinging in wide arcs. an updraft caught the chute, forcing it back toward the looming peaks and slowing the swinging; but in a moment it slid out of the updraft and was floating smoothly downward.

march 2002 release ; cd issue the classic 1987 h.n.a.s. album (their fourth) as reissued by band-member christoph heemann ...

this ones covers bunch of ground, from gnarly synth-work, blasted guitars (c/o andreas martin), & the occasional bereft torch-song, all housed in a pristine late-80s electro-acoustic sound-field ... rather than run it all down, i’ll just give you a nice, extended sound-sample of the album’s second-side apex ...
streamline press release...

the long awaited cd issue of the long-deleted and sought after fourth h.n.a.s. album. a few months after the original lp version appeared on dom in june 1987. reissues of the other hnas albums are in preparation featuring remastered versions of the original tapes and faithfully restored original artwork.

late 80s euro-psych relic, remastered to sonic perfection! psychedelic, like nurse with wound psyhedelic, from germany’s most bizarre underground terrorists – featuring christoph heemann and andreas martin – even the artwork oozes freakish tonalities that beckons one hither.

recorded at artlos studio, aachen, 1986/87. originally released on lp (dom, 1987).

2007 release ; reissue of the 2nd album by mimir; a super-group of sorts consisting of christoph heemann & andreas martin, edward ka-spel, silverman, and (debuting on this album) jim o’rourke ...

a single extended piece in distinct episodes (ala the hafler trio) taking in cues from all over the stylistic map (musique concrète, avant-folk, field recordings, psychedelic synthesizer weirdness, drones, etc... ) ; one of my favorite albums from this clique, extremely glad to have it back in print & accessible to future-generations ...

...peering down, he tried to gauge how close he might be drifting to solid ground, but the darkness made it impossible to judge. he found himself tensing, then consciously willed himself to relax. when he hit, he had to be relaxed. the spatter of brilliance that was the space port was almost dead ahead. a blackness intervened to shield out the spaceport lights and he hit the ground, knees buckling under him...
