rm74 - fireproof in 8 parts (cd hint 02)

nothing is holy!

with his fourth solo-release, reto mäder aka rm74 takes us on a fevery missionary journey which is driven by an unholy quest for saturation and leads us into the dark places where tortured souls dwell. unpredictably muckraking in the shoals of timeless abysses, rm74 seeks to kindle the supressed fires of passion. nothing less!

to do justice to this mission, mäder interweaves acoustic instruments such as an organ, a piano, a bassguitar or a harp with analogue and digital treatments into 8 firey and frivolous revelations. the symbiotical relation on "fireproof in 8 parts" is clearly in favour of the beatified instruments, which are re-discovered as liberating tools:

"the dusty organ winds itself ecstatically in purgatory. the rickety piano holds confused and atonal soliloquies. the detuned strings of the bassguitar gleefully dance to the song of wantonness, and the harp calls for the exorcism of charaded awe!"

"fireproof in 8 parts" also contains a bonus-cdr titled "part 9: lofire". this goodie offers additional insight into the works of rm74, concentrating on his lofi-inspired songwriter drafts.

guest musicians: ralf wehowsky (rlw), dave phillips, roger ziegler (herpes ö deluxe), alexei borisov and reverend lester knox (archived by tom smith).

herpes ö deluxe - kielholen (cd hint 01)

herpes ö deluxe is a four piece group from bern, switzerland working since more than 10 years in a musical field between atmospheric noise, electronica bruitiste, sombre soundscapes and harsh drones. their instruments are partly analogue electronic gear, partly self build or deconstructed tools like tape loops or turntables that are (mis-)used as rhythm machines.

the compositions of herpes ö deluxe are - to a great extent - structured sound monuments that often last between 30 and 50 minutes. the band creates these in time-consuming rehearsal and recording sessions although they are usually performed live once or twice only. such recordings often disappeared in the archives.

a while ago reto mäder aka rm74 came up with the idea of picking out some excerpts of their vast catalogue of unreleased music and trying to create some sort of "song collection”, meaning that these tracks are outtakes of longer, sometimes slowly developing compositions but here are re-defined by rm74 (who also involved himself in the post production as a guest musician) as self-contained tracks full of aspiration, nostalgia and stoic romanticism.

this is not a collaboration in the common sense but rather herpes ö deluxe’s music heard through the ears of rm74.
