| Nachtluft was a Zurich-based trio, consisting of Günter Müller on electronic percussion, Jacques Widmer on acoustic percussion, and Andres Bosshard on a unique cassette machine setup (and speakers distributed around the room) and all three musicians on metal! Self-described as "project for two drummers and live-electronics in an all-over installation," they formed in '86.
Tracked in 1986 during a live concert, and hardly known in its day, Belle-View is so ass-kicking that John Corbett has selected it as the initial release in a UMS miniseries: "Unheard Greats of Swiss Electroacoustic Improvised Music". Other upcoming releases in this miniseries include two lost Voice Crack LPs, and a totally unknown record by the obscure, wonderful Planet Oeuf, Müller's first band, which included British improvisors Phil Wachsmann and Phil Durrant. |
