Album released in 1984 by Michael Obst, a contemporary musician who also worked with Karlheinz Stockhausen, a representative of German avant-garde music. The album is a 26-minute-plus epic, A1, in which a drone composed of only four single notes changes with time over a long period of time; B1, in which sounds like water flowing through a water pipe or bubbles popping appear and disappear intermittently; and B2, in which ultra-fine electronic sounds wander in and out of the sound field. As you follow the movement of sound, you are drawn into the deep world.
