Why try to reinvent the wheel when you can dissect it, shatter the very idea of what a “wheel” is and sock it to the concept of linear musical patterns? That’s exactly what sound artists Vinyl Terror & Horror do. The Berlin-via-Denmark duo of Camilla Sørensen and Greta Christensen reformat the concept of turntablism by intricately destroying then re-deploying record players and assorted vinyl into works of sculptured aural nightmares, cutting records into pieces and filling the gaps with shards of glass, trash or other records to create uneasy symphonies. Fragments of familiar sound pop into existence like ghosts, only to be disrupted by a well-placed piece of metal dropping onto a spinning disc.
As Author & Punisher, Tristan Shone also specializes in the musical construction/destruction business, though his tools aren’t agents of chaos. The San Diego-based engineer creates hand-crafted mechanical controllers and voice manipulators that are finely-honed war tools—his massive steel devices share the same brutal, demon-military aesthetic of his vicious industrial metal. We gathered the forward-thinking sonic weirdos to juxtapose their unique views about the art of crafting sound and supplanting genre.
