Four Corners of the Night
(also with Anton Mobin, Pierce Warnecke/Kris Limbach)
released by Staaltape
“The title says it all: this is a dark, bleak tape that succeeds in showing glints of humanity among the pieces. Singular in tone (…), not by choice or action, but by circumstance. A very compelling, if slightly short listen.” – Ben Marat, Los Angeles
“This tape will haunt you.” – Paul Buonaventura, Leicester
” I recommend this tape highly to not only field recording lovers but also to those who just want a good listen.” – Carmen Polanski, Buenos Aires

Official release date: 15.10.2011
Populista is a CD series curated for Bolt Records
“a curious item, which leaves – again! – a lot to ponder about” – vital weekly
“OK, this is a little confusing.” – Olewnick, Just Outside
“The original piece was itself a collection of memories from former haunts, and Alebeek squares that circle beautifully… ” – The Wire, Dec.2011
“Endlich, endlich, endlich!” – Skug, Journal für Musik
“…this record significantly revitalises the genres of field recording and tapework” – The Sound Projector
“Zapisuje na taśmie wspomnienie o graniu „cyklu wspomnień” kompozytora, który specjalizował się w muzyce na taśmę. Cyklu, w którym składniki funkcjonują w cyklach i mają się spotykać w sposób losowy, tworząc przypadkowe konstelacje i wrażenie.” – popup music
” En cirkel sluts på ett briljant sätt.” – Johan Redin, soundofmusic
“at album’s end, listeners feel obliged to do their own noisy fidgeting, so embedded in your own life has this record become.” Julian Cope

their text:
It’s been a while since I first met Rinus and his rolling circus of magnetophones. Here you get a someway threatening collection of analog sounds, tape atomization, and spoken words.
Anton Mobin works perfectly as a companion on this split release, this capturer of fleeting moments based in Paris seems to be surrounded by some strange sounds…
File under: environmental metaphysics, subliminal field-recs.
