ORIGINAL PRESS RELEASE
Monochrome Rust, the third piece in a triptychon, initiated
with the works Monochrome White and Polychrome w/Neon Nails,
(LINE_005) presents what a shiny new, digitally clean piece
like Polychrome might become after fifty years of degradation
and corrosion&emdash;the neon nails have have become rusted,
and lost their shine. Nevertheless, this study of transience is
not negative&emdash;it rather contains some of the calm of
handling memories of long gone events, seen in a new
perspective created by the passing of time.
Differential is, in a way, the epilogue, the final touch added
to the triptychon of Monochrome White, Polychrome w/Neon Nails,
and Monochrome Rust that completes this cycle based on the work
In Audio by British duo, Immedia as part of their LINE release
2 | 1 (LINE_002). Differential is a very subtle, very filigree
piece, maybe even more abstract, and minimalist than the three
pieces it was derived from, much like a translucent version of
Monochrome White.
Bernhard Guenter's work; minimal, beautiful, quiet, slowly
evolving, evocative, has been praised by both critics and
listeners since his first cd, un peu de neige salie (Selection,
Germany) in 1993 which was listed as one of the Top 100 Albums
that set the World on Fire (The Wire, UK). His work has been
released internationally on such labels as Digital Narcis
(Japan), Metamkine (France), V2 Archief (The Netherlands) and
on his own label Trente Oiseaux (Germany) which been been home
to numerous influential recordings by noted electronic and
electro-acoustic artists. He has performed concerts around the
world and his music is regularly played (in absentia of the
composer) at the Futura Festival de Musique Acousmatique
(Brest, France). In 1999 he received one of twelve Honorable
Mentions at the PRIX ARS ELECTRONICA (Linz, Austria).
