Re: AW: [microsound] Asmus Tietchens

[marc <m@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i second the recommendation for 7 stuecke but the microsound 
community (hmmm) should probably start with the ritornell series, my 
favourite still being alpha-menge.

it's good to see some recognition for tietchens' work after so many 
years. regarding the wire article (which is kind of weak) i do have 
to say that he's from hamburg (not cologne) and die stadt is from 
bremen (not berlin). die stadt is now releasing all old tietchens 
vinyl on cd with bonus material (don't know if it's been mentioned - 
i'm on digest):

regarding the collaborations with arcane device/david lee myers i 
want to mention that their last cd "flussdichte" is still available 
on the disco bruit label:

http://www.disco-bruit.de

and some more blatant promotion - quiet a few tietchens releases are 
available from my mailorder:
