GRODOCK

On "Gesammelte Hintergründe", listeners are met with 16 different, intertwined soundscapes. Dense and harmonic frequency textures that shift and dissolve over the course of nearly 50 minutes. Synthesizers and function generator waveforms collide, building into broad fortresses, forming fragments of melodic sequences, and merging into atonal clusters. Altered instrument sounds, such as the rumble of a tuba, the voices of violins, and the tones of harmonicas, blend into dark, booming sound carpets and mix with electronic noise.

Grodock is the ambient and noise project of David Leutkart, the owner of the label Grubenwehr Freiburg. Over the course of the project's 16-year existence, a large number of ambient pieces were created that had not yet been released on physical media. For the album "Gesammelte Hintergründe", they were remastered, reworked, and interwoven.
