In einer Sonderausgabe der Konzertreihe \u201ebroken sound\u201c wird heute das Ausnahme-Label TOUCH aus London vorgestellt, welche 2012 sein 30-j\u00e4hriges Bestehen feiert. TOUCH steht wohl wie kein anderes Label f\u00fcr Innovation, k\u00fcnstlerische Eigenst\u00e4ndigkeit, eine extrem hohe Wiedererkennbarkeit in Design und Gestaltung (verantwortet von Jon Wozencroft) und einen atemberaubend spannenden Roster an K\u00fcnstlern, die \u00fcber viele Jahre dem Label treu geblieben sind. Mit den heute auftretenden K\u00fcnstlern werden drei Generationen TOUCH pr\u00e4sentiert: CM von Hausswolff, der Multimedia-K\u00fcnstler z\u00e4hlt zu den fr\u00fchen TOUCH Artists und steht f\u00fcr konzeptuelle Arbeiten. BENNY Nilsen, der junge Schwede, ist seine Industrial-Wurzeln entwachsen und arbeitet nun im bereich manipulierter Feldger\u00e4usche und Naturaufnahmen. Und Achim Mohne, eigentlich Konzept- und Medienk\u00fcnstler aus K\u00f6ln ist ganz frisch zu TOUCH gesto\u00dfen und arbeitet \u00fcber die Medialit\u00e4t von Sound. Der Abend wird abgerundet mit einem Vortrag zur Geschichte des Labels von einem der TOUCH-Gr\u00fcnder, Mike Harding, und einem DJ Set des Ash International Sound Systems.
\n\u201ebroken sound\u201c wird kuratiert von Till Kniola\/aufabwegen und gef\u00f6rdert durch das Kulturamt der Stadt K\u00f6ln und das Ministerium f\u00fcr Familie, Kinder, Jugend, Kultur und Sport des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen.<\/p>\n

TOUCH 30 presents\u2026.
\nEin Festival zu Ehren des britischen Experimental-Labels Touch (London, UK)<\/p>\n

Touch – www.touchmusic.org.uk<\/p>\n

In 2012, Touch celebrates its 30th year… Since its first release in 1982, Touch has created sonic and visual productions that combine innovation with a level of care and attention that has made it the most enduring of any independent music company of its time.<\/p>\n

THE ASH INTERNATIONAL SOUND SYSTEM – www.ashinternational.com<\/p>\n

Ash International has been perceived as the R&D section of Touch, and this is indeed partly true… but it doesn’t tell the whole story. Ash International was unleashed onto an unsuspecting world in early 1993 – electronic communications, radio emissions and other natural frequencies are an endless source of material for their releases… No stone is left unturned, with studies of EVP, wax cylinder and CD, and other unknown sound source recordings all part of the „label“’s remit. Its an audio experiment which dovetails into the history of sound recording and beyond…<\/p>\n

BENNY NILSEN<\/p>\n

\nACHIM MOHN\u00c9<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Achim Mohn\u00e9 studied at the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne, and started working with record players and other „sound-media-apparatus“ in the mid ’90’s. He experiments with the space and time intervals of sound-media and is especially interested in the „music that lies hidden in the medium itself“. He subjects the support material to a forensic autopsy, for example, by analysing the dust particles inside an ending vinyl groove. Achim composes records (but one will not hear any reproduced music) to a music that comes out of the medium. Using a triple vinyl deck set-up, his analytic auditory observations of ending grooves – all grooves sound different, depending on how dust has effected and transformed the soft surface of the vinyl – convert tiny dust particles into a „sound sculpture“.<\/p>\n
