Various: Vor Der Flut (Hommage An Einen Wasserspeicher)

Recorded: December 1984 in the drinkingwatertank SEVERIN/Cologne.
Recorded with FOSTEX B16.

In December 1984 musicians from different countries and the ‘Tanzforum der Oper/Köln’ met in the almost 100 years old drinkingwatertank (Wasserspeicher) SEVERIN (which had been emptied for refurbishment) located on the southside of Cologne for an exceptional music and danceproject. The recordings of this double-LP testify for the unique acoustics of the subterraneous colonnade. All takes have only been recorded with microphones distributed throughout the tank, without using any additional studioeffect equipment before it was finally flooded again (german title – vor der flut : before the flood).

Mixed at Studio Zuckerfabrik, Stuttgart; Soundexpress Studio, Köln.
Mastered at Tonstudio Bauer, Ludwigsburg.
