,,Daumenbruch'' by faust

The basic tracks were recorded by Zappi W. Diermaier, Dirk Dresselhaus and Elke Drapatz in Dirk's studio. They were sent online as rough mixes to the individual musicians who recorded their overdubs independently, not knowing what the other ones would do and sent them back. This method created a result of interesting overlays, patterns and links. The recordings were mixed by Dirk Dresselhaus and Zappi W. Diermaier at the studio ZONE in Berlin. Three long pieces evolved, whose meditative industrial character is based completely on instant composition, waiting to be played live in front of an audience.

There are many “Fausts” in this world, twice as many as there usually are people. Yet with the intention of equaled strength is Zappi Diermaier and friends from Berlin’s take on Faust as faust. It’s where primal instinct can transform into tasteful, calculated chemistry woven from absence, silence and negative space through unspoken means of communication.
