Jochen Hartmann's profile

NIL - NILMONIC PROCESS

Nilmonic Process was developed through a self formulated language of both loose form free-feedback (Nilmonic Process) and computer generated composition (Nilmonic Processors). Simple and raw, black-box pedal feedback in one regard, but meticulously structured and digital in another. Bent perception anti-synth. First all pro printed release in the Phaserprone catalog (and possibly/most likely, the last pro printed release in the Phaserprone catalog?). Cut at D&M. Edition of 300.

"march 2012 release ; ... debut release from this new aggregation of phaserprone’s jonas “grasslung” asher & jochen hartmann, starting with mackie mixer-feedback, transforming it via digital processes into a series of short studies that hedge the raster-noton aesthetic with a noisier, mid-90’s mego-style “sound research” feel ... ... as always w/ pp, it’s kind of a ridiculously nice edition (esp. given the price !!!) ; crisp, mono-color sleeve opens up to a rather detailed full-color inner sleeve (detail below) rife with tdr™-style cracked-architecture mapping(s) of the nil “logo” ... a really nicely done record ; highly recommended !!!"

"Fantastic new full-length LP from Phaserprone label heads Jonas Asher and Jochen Hartmann. Phaserprone has been releasing superb albums of bizarre, fractured electronics for several years now under the radar of many. Hopefully this is the outing that pushes their efforts into the view of more heads. What one notices first about the album is the stunning 3D modeled art by Hartmann on the printed inner sleeve, which is both intricate and bizarre, offering a sneak peak into what the music is all about before one puts the slab on the table. The music itself is fairly extreme, recalling some of the more out-there work of Keith Whitman or Florian Hecker- all shards of crackling home-brewed synthesizer arranged into bizarre, quasi-rhythmic edifices. Highest recommendation - a must for fans of the aforementioned artists and electronic music as such."

"フィードバック・ノイズによる錯乱ミニマリズム!! UW OWLでも共にするこのレーベル主催者Jonas AsherとJochen HartmannによるNILデビュー作! インダストリアル・ビートを刻む様々な秀作を発表して来たPhaserprone、今回は特に素晴らしい。グルグルと腹痛のように機敏に走り回るノイズ、鉛玉が四方八方に乱射されるビートがたまらない! Keith Fullerton Whitmanのモジュラー作品、Giuseppe Ielasiの15シリーズや、Digitalis Recordingsから発表していたKplr等がお好きな方にもお勧めです!!!!! 限定300枚。アートワークも最高です。"
