Hanno Leichtmann (Static, Denseland, Groupshow) showcases what he can do with the Pearl Syncussion SY-1 Drum Synthesiser in two parts for The Tapeworm, who previously issued his Unfinished Portrait of Youth Today [2013].
The follow-up to Hanno’s The Future Of Discipline collab with Valerio Tricoli follows a similarly encrypted logic. Hanno treats the drum synth as a completely malleable object not just in terms of rhythm but in terms of matter, variously melting, diffusing and re-connecting it in various states thru an ER-301 Sound Computer on recordings made at Static Music, Berlin and 4D Sound, Budapest, which were both originally presented as a sound installation at SYNCUSSION FESTIVAL, BERLIN, 2017.
