| Every two years or so, Touch has produced a sampler giving an |
| overview of our current activities and affiliations. Following |
| Touch 00 (2000), and even prefiguring its release, we wanted to |
| make something that reflected the increasing reliance on the |
| already recorded, whilst suggesting a more lateral approach to |
| the use of source material. This first tendency is manifest |
| everywhere, from tribute bands, to remixes, to updates or clones |
| of earlier sound successes (Oasis and Blur vs. The Beatles and |
| The Kinks, and so on). Another syndrome has developed whereby |
| sounds are transformed by various software programmes, and what |
| seems to be an innovation soon reveals itself to be generic. |
| |
| "Star Switch On" is not an answer to such questions, but it is a |
| reflection of the current obsession with æmappingÆ, æstoringÆ and |
| æmodulatingÆ. We were interested in what would happen when |
| artists were given a 'carte-blanche' to work with recordings that |
| had a definite and undeniable subject, location and atmosphere - |
| the wildlife sound recordings of Chris Watson published on |
| "Stepping Into the Dark" (TO:27) and "Outside the Circle of Fire" |
| (TO:37) - imagining a perverse take on library music, sampling, |
| remix, all inadequate in denoting the soundscapes we hoped such a |
| brief would encourage. |
| |
| "Star Switch On" features two new recordings by Chris Watson, |
| alongside Biosphere, Fennesz, Hazard, Mika Vainio, Philip Jeck |
| and AER. |
| |
| Chris Watson, former member of Cabaret Voltaire and The Hafler |
| Trio, has many credits to his name, not least the series of |
| wildlife programmes made by David Attenborough to which he |
| contributed. In 2000, "Outside the Circle of Fire" won a |
| distinction for æDigital MusicÆ at Ars Electronica. Currently, he |
| is on location in Kenya working on a new series of the BBCÆs "Big |
| Cat Diary". |

: Founded in 1998 by a bunch of german geeks, UBE was one of the :
| first groups in the mp3 scene, when only a dirty dozen of them |
| were there. Ever since we did quality releases, instead of |
| focusing on quantity like it is done by most groups today. |
| |
| UBE is a group of friends, friendly and open-minded, and so we |
| seek for new friends, not just ripping machines. And we are |
| probably the group doing the most parties ;) |
| When you apply you have to be a little bit patient, |
| we need some time to get to know you. |
| |
| Over time we have grown to a quite big group with nearly 50 |
| Members, scattered all over the world, but most of them from |
| Germany. |
| In UBE there is no duty to release something, we don't force our |
| members into releasing a specific amount, since this only leads |
| to crappy releases. Stuff you can buy at some gas station is not |
| really worth ripping. |
| |
| Besides releasing you can help us in many ways, we seek for |
| programming experts, linux gurus,security experts and (legit) |
| shell providers as well, just to name some examples. |
| |
| In addition, UBE membership doesn't expire, we don't kick idle |
| friends. If you can behave you will stay with us forever, so |
| don't ever try to take advantage of our friendly attitude. |
| And, in UBE is no place for racism or other kinds of extremists, |
| and if you are some ego please go somewhere else. |
| |
| Even though we are friendly, we don't fill requests for security |
| reasons, so don't come requesting files in our public channel, |
| if we don't know you - youre very likely not to be heard. |
| |
| People should care a lot more about their and other people's |
| security. |
| Get educated and think before you start to talk or even act. |
| There is a growing gap between the ones that do think about |
| security and the ones that don't, try to avoid a split. |
