Tiere der Nacht
Tiere der Nacht (Mani Neumeier & Luigi Archetti) are two musicians moving between the two extremes of sensuality and intellect. One never quite knows towards which of the two they may be heading at any one moment. Wild and ruthless, they descend upon the big-city jungle. Rhythm, rhythm and yet again rhythm is their credo, which they express through the atonal twittering of the thousands of voices of a giant flock of birds, Wave-Metal explosions and hypnodelic expeditions into outer space.
Supported by tape machines and others electronics, playing grooves, fragments of speech, or also, for example, classical sounds by Bartok, and some effect devices, so-called trained pet-machines, the two musicians produce a blend which, in this form, must certainly be unique in the Rock and Jazz world. |
