Global Trotters Project Volume 1 "Drive" is the first issue of a
planned series in collaboration with composers/musicians from all
over the world initiated by Roedelius. This European issue is the
remixed version of the original material that came out in March
1999 via Biosphere Records in Japan. It includes a sort of
re-remix-crossfade edited by Alex "The Orb" Paterson. This work is
supported by The Edge from U2 and Alex Paterson who both like these
tracks so much that they have agreed to their comments being
printed on the front cover sticker. I am proud that the album
begins its way to the audience like this, and I hope the listeners,
HAVE FUN WITH IT!
- Hans-Joachim Roedelius
Over his thirty year career, Roedelius has earned himself a
reputation as something of a "work-a-holic", releasing in excess of
30 solo albums, the most notable being his "Selbstportrait" series
of ambient instrumentals. In recent years, Roedelius has channelled
all of his energies in to his collaborations for theatre, dance and
film. 1998 saw the release of "Aquarello" on EnoÆs All Saints
Records. Mostly instrumental compositions with Nicola Alesini and
Fabio Capanni, "Aquarello" was recorded in RoedeliusÆs home studio
in Austria and live at the Lanzarote Music Festival. His new album
"Drive" out now on Rykodisc (RCD 10480) is possibly his most
contemporary release to date and features an exclusive "re-remix"
by Alex Paterson of The Orb.
Roedelius has just returned from Japan where he played a string of
sold out concerts. The summer of Æ99 will see him returning to the
live arena when he will tour America as support to Roger Eno and
Lol Hammond (ex-Drum Club).
