- Here is one part of the review - translated into english . . .


Every summer Sascha Stadlmeier, often working under his alias EMERGE, hosts Attenuation Circuit in the home base Augsburg the re:flexions sound-art festival. Even last year that worked, although in a slimmed form and this year it's on the schedule again. Recordings of the 2020 edition also recently appeared on CD: 'r I ɘ', with five pieces in which various musicians sought cooperation. Some of these musicians have now also published new albums. Boban Ristevski and Occupied Head, aka Dieter Mauson, together made ′′ The Secret Teachers... / (Taǰnite učiteli)... '' also appeared at Attenuation Circuit and Gintas K realized ′′ The Ways ′′ in his own management. ′′ Human Interbreeding ′′ is called the first piece on 'r I ɘ', (how do you pronounce this?), on which we hear Bu.d.d.A., Chris Sigdell and Stadlmeier ourselves, together with trumpeter Fabbri and Hosihko Yamane. Bu.d.d.A. came here earlier with ′′ All Der Gute Dinge Drei '' when we noticed the dark, industrial character in particular. There is certainly now too, but because of cooperation with Fabbri, especially how those high notes of his trumpet cut the dark clouds and Yamane this is a completely different piece. Occupied Head, Ristevski and Agente Costura, the last one with a sewing machine in the weather, add a shovel in 'Sudden Descent' and provide excellent industrial needs. Gintas Kraptavičius we hear here together with Calineczka, the alias of Ścisław Dercz and Wilfried Hanrath in 'Closer Musings', creating a beautiful subtle sound landscape, with a great wealth of special sounds. Lee Enfield, or James Wyness we hear together with Sabīne Moore, Waterflower and Peter Holzknecht, KOMPRIPIOTR in the spooky 'Scare Up'. Dark sound nebulae makes you walk down the spine, only the rhythmic pattern offers some lighting. In the last piece, 'Ferch' we hear Deep, Stefan Vetter and Bernd Spring and N, Hellmut Neidhardt, in a very subdued set, atmospheric nebulae pass us by.
