Passeridae II by Adrian Klumpes/ Machinefabriek

4...according to our on Thu 07 May, 2009.

Australia's Sound and Fury label are doing a singles club and we're fortunate enough to have bagged some copies of the Adrian Klumpes/ Machinefabriek 7". The A-side 'In Stillness His Shadow Moved' was composed by Adrian Klumpes and is a kind of mysterious piano piece that has been overdubbed by Rutger Zuydervelt to give it a more haunting atmosphere with some of his trademark wizardry. The piece is full of tension with a strange paranoid beauty lurking within the keys. 'Second Dew' is a Machinefabriek track that Klumpes has twiddled with. It's a pretty simple organic string refrain that gets manipulated with all sorts of electronic tinkering sounds panning around. A most pleasant listen. Comes in screen printed 7" Arigato pak in an edition of 300 copies.

packaging:
Hand-silkscreened,
100% recycled chipboard sleeves

&c:
Rather than being a split single,
the second volume in the Passeridae
series is features two collaborations from
Sydney's Adrian Klumpes &
Rotterdamn's Rutger Zuydervelt,
aka Machinefabriek.
In Stillness His Shadow Moved was
performed by Klumpes & subsequently
overdubbed & edited by Zuydervelt,
& vice-versa for Second Dew.
