2008 release. Einstürzende Neubauten guitarist Jochen Arbeit presents a collection of 10 years of his solo works for film, theater, performance pieces, and installations. Some of the highlights include: "Burlesque," made for the film Die Unerzogenen by Pia Marais, and recorded in 2006. The piece was ultimately rejected and was subsequently used in a Stupid Green art performance. "Piece For Adidas" was used in a sound-installation for Adidas at the "Bread And Butter" fashion fare at the "Kraftwerk," Berlin 2007. The company commissioned the building of a wellness room with foot massages, beds, interactive monitors, etc., in a completely white room. This piece ran there for 2 days straight. Arbeit's work is richly detailed and often looped -- dark bass and reedy electronics mingling with rough guitars, Rhodes, vibraphones, Chinese zithers, saarang, computer-generated voices, and other accoutrements. Also included is a DVD containing 4 videos and 3 Surround Sound mixes. Housed in a tri-fold, 6-panel deluxe digipack, including a fold-out poster insert of the cover art, with liner notes on the reverse.
