about

The third Aalfang-album was recorded between May and December 2004* and was released in 2005 on Tobias Fischer's label Einzeleinheit. The album came in a black flannel.

*and possibly already in autumn 2003, but my memories are blurred here.

The label euphorically announced the album as "a sleepwalking Krautrock fever dream in an acoustic hall of mirrors". I actually liked that. Outsiders were more reserved in their judgement at the time: "All in all, this CD leaves me somewhat perplexed. The radical refusal of music, which is practised here over long stretches, certainly has something fascinating about it; however, some of it seems somewhat arbitrary, the recorded sounds sometimes seem to have been randomly snipped together. Not uninteresting, but not really inspiring either. Quite strange at any rate!" (Babyblaue Seiten) Even though we did our best on the guitars...

This edition contains three bonus tracks that were not included on the original album but were recorded at the same time. I released them in 2006 on a crude collection called ""Capharnaüm Piqures" Flotsattic Lumberjunk #1" - but they ultimately fit better here.

Even though romanticisation has certainly set in by now, I have (of course) fond memories of the recording sessions in Wesel. It was an exciting time, we discovered a lot, even if the music itself wasn't really discovered.

Aalfang Mit Pferdekopf Germany

has been the vehicle for more or less unusual sounds with a narrative approach since 2004.

The package contains prick descriptions, found field footage, dodgy drones, allaying ambient, and all sorts of things from the bargain bin of serious music. The main bricoleur is Mirko Uhlig, occasionally supported by Her and Him.
