Understanding 9/11Stammer - Strum
Audio With External Links Item Preview
STRUM is Stammer's third album and was released in 2002. The title refers to the prominent presence of all kinds of snare sounds throughout the album.
STAMMER grew out of the fascination with sound. Instead of subordinating sound to harmony and melody, pure sound is treated as an extraordinary way of expression. Using synthesizers and computer programs to explore and catch 'found' sounds, serendipity plays an important role in the creation proces.
STAMMER took off seriously in 1997, when the first cassette was produced. Three privately produced CD's followed in 1997, 1999 and 2002. A fourth CD has just been released (May 2005). STAMMER exposes ideas, music and photography on its own web page (www.stammer.nl).
Similar Artists: Hazard, Fennesz, Scanner, Laurie Anderson, Brian Eno, Sun Ra, Art Ensemble of Chicago, Weather Report, Can, Faust, Soft Machine

stammer canot be easily described. electronic. yes. but there's a hint of a strange keyboard or two. compositionally things are strange too. all this is of course positive. if you like bizzar you must try this.
