sturclub

not exactly a band: sturclub rather is a loosely knit network of artists and musicians spread all over the globe, communicating in any imaginable way. some of them are old friends, some have never seen each other face to face. around a nucleus of faithful acolytes they gather together now and then to play (in the purest sense of the word "play"...) trying to explore new soundscapes and stretching and/or breaking up the limits of their own imagination (i.e.: how "free" is free form, when your instrumental abilities are limited and rehearsing is strictly prohibited...). no sheets, no scores, no tracklist, no conventional tuning. but: instant composition, spontaneous (psychotick) reaction, improvisation without any tonal, a-tonal or modal boundries: questioning and answering any material, space or emotion. energetic dabbling in permanently changing line-ups, surroundings, concepts and noms de guerre. hic salta: anything goes. thee unrepeatable here&now-a-happening, deeply rooted in decades of studying difficult, rarely heard music, more often than not leads to unpredictable and unplanned sound results: ambient living room droning mutates to punk mayhem, dis-cordant tones turn out to be not only part of but rather the actual plan, and the glorious, complete failure changes into a beautiful loop: lasting for ever (and ever: emily...)... sturclub sometimes are: david dufour wenne voran uwe büchele ralf siemers comrades in noise: art.ist.la.maisch oliver prechtl carl kruger andreas schiemann
