The second release of the German/Polish duo after their highly acclaimed Non Visual Objects debut "The View Underneath" - this time the material was recorded live during their 2008 tour European tour. The music on this CD documents the entire set as it was performed that night in Geneva. No afterediting, overdubs or cuts were applied - the material was solely mixed and mastered & track indexes were added.
While the NVO release can be clearly labeled as a "first meeting" in the meantime a few years have passed & the duo has gathered quite some experience through perfoming various concerts & tours together.
And at the same time also both artists have moved on individually and their personal musical and artistic development has sharpened. While Schick has worked hard to widen his musical scope in various duo collaborations and on perfecting his turntable techniques and sonic material of his Rotating Surfaces Set-up with a strong focus on tonal material, Szczesny has completed and released a series of works with very loopy and clearly jazzbased samples recomposing them into very unique sounding miniatures. Schick & Szczesny have incorporated those external experiences into their music and also deepened their common sense in how to shape and construct the music. Although the entire stream of music lasts for about 44:00 minutes, the music clearly structures into a suite of shorter & closely related pieces.
The musical ingredients are not so very different from the first release (warm medlodic loops, very clicky noises, tonal drones), but they are used in a deeper way and have become way more natural.
