A collection of works released in 1990 by German contemporary composer Mathias Spahlinger, who has been producing works since the late 1960s and is known for his irregularly structured pieces that frequently use noise effects. A1/A2/B3 are string ensembles that, as mentioned, aim for noise effects through stillness and motion, slowness and speed. A3 is a live collage-like piece for piano, clarinet, violin, and soprano voice. B2 is electronic music created by a collage of tape and noise, sounding as if a turntablist is scratching.
