Ѫΰϯᶓԃ Ʀѧϊᵰѣѻὦ – ‘Intuitions’ CDr $10
mutedrainbow-100pxPro-duped CD-R, thermal print, hand-assembled, sticker-sealed, folder with window. Stamped, numbered edition of 50. // Michelle Proksell (aka Muted Rainbow) resides in Beijing and loves/lives China as a dreammachine of animated .gif images, weird montages and awesome t-shirts. She also makes music through an open site of collaborative gradient exchange called Ѫΰϯᶓԃ Ʀѧϊᵰѣѻὦ: deaf improvisation based on colors and hues, blue(s) gospels in unknown languages, seas of shimmering drones, electro-acoustic processing and outdated acid folk. Classical without class, psychedelic without psyche, songwriting without writing. Intuitions is the result of sparse improvisational sessions conjured in Shanghai bedrooms and living rooms during 2012. Hours worth of recordings were trimmed, mixed and mastered with poetic freedom at Zulmà t studio in Rome, Italy. For this incarnation, Ѫΰϯᶓԃ Ʀѧϊᵰѣѻὦ involved Michelle Proksell, Gabriele de Seta, Gregorio Samsaro and Pupa Tang, some strings and a wide array of electronics.

BABEL – ‘STURM und DRANG’ CDr
Babel-sturm-100pxPro CD-R, thermal print, spray painted white digipak, numbered edition of 25 // STURM und DRANG is part 2 in BABEL’s trilogy of improvised, extended technique pieces for prepared electric guitars. As with HEURTER (part 1), guitar and bass are primarily treated as percussion instruments. These pieces also feature delay loops, junk percussion, wind instruments and electronically manipulated vocal performances. Metallic, post-modern textures and washes of glittering tones staring at the sea, listening to a steel mill in the distance.
