On “Four Modular Concerts”:
The C-90 cassette tape includes excerpt of four live operformances by Konrad Kraft, spanning the years 2019 til 2024. Each extract displays the special character of the specific concert. Sometimes gritty and bouncy, in other places warped and hissy. Grooves and experiments go hand in hand on this tape release. It documents a transitional phase in Konrad Kraft’s career, a time capsule.
