work 003 : atlantis of the north
songs/sound collage/music with broader instrumentation (unreleased cd master, live on split 10" and web ep)

A atlantis of the north

8 urban folk music compositions from studio sessionwork - a zoociative listening experience, operatic ambiences. merz vaudeville. what does the alchemist desire when s/he discovers the vanity of gold?

The third part of the origami boe worklog: Urban folk music about various climate and social changes. In a zoorealistic display of contemporary links, you'll meet the comodo dragon, fighting zebras and stomping elephants, the white river dolphin, an owl, 8 lines of poetry and a storm.

Swinging mikes, gated poetry and bits of beats create an unique semi-acoustic atmosphere. Dark, eerie and awkward it is, but it also forms a ironic-poetic farewell to the "arctic ambient" and "post-industrial" musics of previous Boe-making.

It should only fall natural that this recording was made in the rehearsal space/studio of one of the bands who through their debut album kicked Boe onto his musical and conceptual path. This session was a negation of a negation, an abstraction of an abstraction. Except the acoustic Bjorklund Revival laptop, voice and paper, teeth and feet - the instruments were kindly provided by the same band. Putting the dilletant back into die geniale dilletanten.

Recorded, mixed and mastered by Boris Wilsdorf @ "The Bunker" (now andereBaustelle tonstudio) in Berlin, January 8-12, 2007. This record is dedicated.
