Label: Gruenrekorder - Gruen186

これはかなりの面白&傑作物件！！ ちょっと変態的な事をする音楽家Achim Zepezauerが実践した、ウェブサイト上にスロットマシンのプログラムを設置し、そのスタートボタンをクリックすると3つのスロット内に仕込まれた様々な作家の45秒の音源がランダムにミックスされるというシステムを録音した10インチ作品。まだ拡張状態にあるらしく、本作のリリース日には合計225曲、11,390,625パターンの楽曲が制作可能との事。参加者もかなりの強者揃いとなっていて、Jérôme Noetinger、Simon Whetham、Jaap Blonk、John Chantler、Michael Vatcherらの音源がクールに、時に可笑しくミックスされています。マシンのステッカーが付属。

The „Kuhzunft-slotmachine“ is a website-project, based on a picture of a crayon-painted slot machine. Clicking the start button activates the machine to randomly combine pre-produced recordings (of 45 seconds length) within three slots. Instead of typical fruits in the display, you would see photos attached to the specific sounds by the artists responsible for the content. Even the names of the „songs“ are put together by the single names each artist had chosen for their recordings. The vinyl release on Gruenrekorder documents the project with a selection from 13 artists and 158 recordings, that offered a possibility of 3.944.312 tracks. The online-slotmachine has the ability to continuously grow and contains at the date of the vinyl release (February 1st, 2019) four more artists and a total of 225 recordings, providing some 11.390.625 possible titles. Visit slotmachine.kuhzunft.com to discover the project yourself. You can either simply press START and get surprised or deactivate AUTO PLAY to make a selection.
