Thilges 3

Located in Vienna, Austria, where in the turn from the millennium experimental electronica experienced a multiplication approach, the trio Thilges 3 centered on two elements to mix its music from a variety of producers mixed up in city. Initial, its people rely exclusively on analog modular synthesizers to create their noises, emphasizing the unpredictable, almost-impossible-to-reproduce character of their shows. Second, they embed the music in substitute configurations, contextualizing their activities in various types of set up and performance artwork. In that respect, they stand near fellow Austrians Fon or the Swedish duo Sons of God (even though the theatrical element can be never that created). In Sept 1996, Nik Hummer, Armin Steiner, and “Gammon” made a decision to type Thilges 3 after an random improvisational encounter. The outlines from the group’s beliefs were gradually applied and quickly they started to carry out in art areas around Austria, and Germany and holland a couple of years later on. Each performance can be conceived for the area where it really is hosted, considering the structures of the area. The trio runs on the quadrophonic PA program and generally performs within an inconspicuous area instead of an increased stage, stimulating the audience to research the area. The sine waves and rhythmic loops from the analog synthesizers may actually change as you moves in various directions. Noteworthy shows have got included Mak, in which a armed forces orchestra performed in a single area as the trio changed and polluted the noises in another, and Rosner, where an glaciers sculpture was still left to melt through the concert. The uniqueness of the happenings needed records, and in past due 1999, Thilges 3’s Hackerbrücke premiered as some ten live 3″ Compact disc EPs. Obtainable by subscription in the group, the series extended into 2003 and provides attracted interest from avant-garde critics and viewers. The label Staalplaat was the first ever to prolong an invitation towards the trio, resulting in the release from the EP Polka in 2001. The initial full-length record, Die Offene Gesellschaft, arrived on Staubgold in Oct 2002. The trio provides appeared on the Ars Electronica celebration in 2001 with Phonotaktik 2002.
