CLAUS VAN BEBBER-SCHALLPLATTENKONZERT, 3" CD, 1992, GERMANY


It's been a while since I've upped something from this longstanding paragon of Germany's marginal fringe. Time to rectify that. Van Bebber was initially a member of the Neue Deutsche Welle outfit Z.D.L. (covered at length elsewhere), and latterly emerged over the following decades as a stalwart of the German improv community, his specialty being seasick symphonies of vinyl abuse in the mode of Phillip Jeck, Christian Marclay and Milan Kniszac. Schallplattenkonzert is a smashing example of the sorta dislocated trans-historical frisson that emerges from shrewdly pastiching several generations of antiquated and marred vinyl in an acutely sensitized fashion.
