Holger Rothkamm

Format: Digital
File Under: pure electronic frequency modulation

In 2005 in New York I conceived of an algorithmic and purely electronic work that exists in 3 time zones simultaneously. I would create this live in front of a remote audio-only audience by constantly modulating random streams that were to be fed into the TX7, a keyboard-less version of a vintage 1983 digital synthesizer, the Yamaha DX7.

So on the 3rd day of the 3rd month of the year 2005 I recorded 3 tracks at 3 different times in front of 3 internet audiences of 3 humans each in 3 time zones with each performance lasting 33 minutes and 33 seconds. 3 Times for 3 Timezones is the superimposition of all 3 as my opus 41 and now my album 3 Timeszones.

In the press release for the project I announced that the dynamic duo of Rojo and Crest will play on the ‘data processing electronic music instrument’ IFORMM, which gives the impression that there are 2 performers. I’m wearing a lot of hats, but this doesn’t add up. At least not to 3.

Metal combined with piano sounds... The sound of strikethrough is like encryption... Mr. Turing is nearby)) The detached noise textures are impressive, as is the internal failure for the listener when the gluing is detected! A decent job! Notnotice

Very interesting soundscape. I imagine the gentle clanging of Tibetan water bowls, water droplet sounds in reverse and the intermittent foghorn. Richard Erickson

This low-fi tape / loop / drone fits my state of mind. The perfect grind of garbled voice subterfuge with various found winding devices. Richard Erickson
