Sichten 1 vinyl

For the first issue of Raster's new Sichten series of compilations, the label asked long time collaborator Frank Bretschneider to put together a personal selection of current music. He aimed to present the undiscovered, featuring artists with different musical approaches and their own unique takes on modern electronic experimentalism. This is indeed evident on this extensive 18 track collection: bold sonic adventurers of more established status such as Benjamin Brunn and Retina.IT appear, presenting their takes on modern electro and techno derivatives respectively. They rub shoulders with emerging names in the electronic music landscape such as Copenhagen's Mads Emil Nielsen with his avant-garde expressions, Japan's Mimicof serving up her thrilling sonic contortions and the underrated Zavoloka from Kiev providing some monochromatic distortions of the digitised kind.
