For more than two decades Oliver Peters has been working as Evapori, with releases on Entr'acte, Walter Ulbricht Schallfolien, 1000füssler, as well on his own now defunct Antiinformation imprint he used to run with his close collaborator Nicolas Wiese since the early 2000's. Following his 2020 LP "Dia-Logos", "Der Vogel Turlipan" is Peters' second work for Fragment Factory, which is based on a poem of the same name by East German writer Peter Hacks. It tells the story of the quest for an apparently non-existent bird, which ultimately leads to different discoveries along the way.
Instead of just setting the poem itself to music, Peters creates an environment for the text – a sonic mold, or scenic imprint, created both for and by the poem. In this way he expands the unreal landscape of the original poem into a musical voyage of a very unique kind.
