Vox (1997)

Vox is an experimental ode to the human voice. This CD presents ten tracks by ten German composers, improvisers, and performers from the experimental scene.

Vox is an experimental ode to the human voice. This CD presents ten tracks by ten German composers, improvisers, and performers from the experimental scene. Each piece uses the voice as the source of an electro-acoustic exploration. Contributions vary in length (from Berserker's 30 seconds to Ron Schmidt's 11 minutes) and styles. The album opens with multiple layers of Anna Homler's beautiful voice. Her piece offers deep exotic resonances in her very personal style. Mike Keppler's contribution is a wall of overloaded signals from a badly tuned radio. Ron Schmidt's piece is made of meditative "hums" and is inexplicably followed by an unannounced 20 minutes of silence (so the real length of this album, music-wise, is 57 minutes instead of 77). Other contributors include Michael Vorfeld, Stephan Froleyks (with a spoken word piece), turntablist Claus van Bebber, and Helmut Lemke, whose sound collage provides, along with Homler's piece, one of the most fascinating moments on Vox. ~ François Couture, Rovi Read Less
