The Köner Experiment

The Köner Experiment is the collaboration of several of the finest experimental artists of the time, namely Sonic Boom of Spacemen 3 & Spectrum, Kevin Martin from God & Techno Animal, Eddie Prevost - founder of the legendary AMM, Kevin Shields, tonemeister of My Bloody Valentine and Thomas Köner and Andy Mellwig of Portericks. This release was recorded during 1991 in studios in Coventry & London - the material then was sculpted in Dortmund into its present form by the acclaimed German artists Thomas Köner and Andy Mellwig. Taking the ethos of Experimental Audio Research to new levels, this release shows us the deep and complex nature of the music E.A.R. produce. Deep, rolling waves of sound producing emotions and thoughts like no other style can. Building atmospheres, textures and moods in a 3 ring circus as the effects alter, hypnotize and change the soundscapes throughout this 12 track CD - now featuring 2 extra cuts from the same sessions, previously unavailable. Much sought after by fans and used by DJs looking to spice up their mixes and sound clashes, this album, available again for the first time since its original foreign release back in the mid 90s, will no doubt continue to be heralded as some of Experimental Audio Research's finest work. If you're a fan of Sonic Boom's soundscaping work with E.A.R. and the genre, then this is an unmissable addition to your collection - and it will no doubt also be essential to newcomers of the genre as an example of E.A.R.'s highly lauded hypnotic control of moods with sound through crescendos of ominous, startling, lulling and unique textures.
