Konrad Sprenger - Versprochen
Berliner Konrad Sprenger (aka Jörg Hiller) has previously released a solo record (2006’s Miniaturen) via his own label, Choose, and now is set to reach a wider audience thanks to Schoolmap, the imprint administrated by Giuseppe Ielasi and Francesco Tenaglia. The album begins compellingly with the prolonged whistling of a steam train before launching into the layered, slightly uneasy ambient clamour of ‘Lethe’, which combines nervous guitar thrums with the gradual emergence of luscious extended tones. More darkness follows with edgy foley-style exchanges on ‘Lugner’ and the lupine pulsations of ‘Das Helle Fell Am Hinterteil Des Hirschs’. A marvellous, absurdly diverse collection of electronic and instrumental experiments.
