Then these pieces are mined for a few very short fragments. These, in turn, form the core of a much longer piece, painstakingly assembled around repeated motifs salvaged from the wreckage. Very slowly – over four years of intermittent activity – a long piece comes into being. As it gets longer more space and silence enters the music. The trio's working method on "till the old world's blown up…" is one of sudden flash and meltdown, followed by a gradual process of cellular division. This inexorable metastatic activity builds a new organism with a peculiar life of its own, far removed from its sources. Ghostly twangs of Americana, Ligeti-esque CD1/1 and CD2/3 edited and arranged by martin brandlmayr. CD2/1 edited and arranged by christian fennesz CD2/2 edited and arranged by werner dafeldecker
