Re: AW: [microsound] Asmus Tietchens

["tobias c. van Veen" <tobias@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good point. He does reject the term 'drone.' However, if one were to attemp=
t
to speak of his work, how would one describe it? New Music?
Electro-acoustic? At least as the 'grand-daddy of German drones,' he's
positioned as the forefather of today's drone artists, post-industrialists,
etc, and by this I mean of course primarily Thomas K=F6ner.

I've checked out Tietchen's site, but would be interested in hearing more
about his work, if anyone cares to share.

best, tobias
