about

SCHACHTANLAGE GEGENORT . Coal Phase-Out . cd/digital
cd in Hands Paper Pack . HANDS D305

Descend into the depths of industrialism with SCHACHTANLAGE GEGENORT's 2024 album, "Coal Phase-Out" a riveting exploration of electroacoustic and industrial music. Featuring nine tracks spanning roughly 50 minutes, "Coal Phase-Out" showcases Denise Ritter's impeccable sound design and craftsmanship. The music, though experimental and formidable, possesses a rhythmic allure that demands the listener's attention. Archaic, otherworldly, and urgent, the album offers a rewarding listening experience, serving as a remarkable document of industrial soundscapes.
SCHACHTANLAGE GEGENORT, conceived by musician and artist Denise Ritter, delves into the realms of audio recordings from coal mining, iron, and steel industries. With four albums under her belt since 1997, including two self-releases and two under the umbrella of HANDS, Ritter's sonic journey continues to captivate audiences.
This album marks a departure from the thematic essence of SCHACHTANLAGE GEGENORT: "Coal Phase-Out" serves as both a farewell to coal and a resolute statement advocating the abandonment of fossil fuel consumption. Notably, "Letzte Seilfahrt", "Prosper-Haniel", and "Stille im Streb" feature audio recordings taken at a depth of 1,200 meters in Germany's last active coal mine, Zeche Prosper-Haniel, shortly before its final closure. Additionally, Ritter incorporates computer-generated sounds and beats for the first time in other tracks, aiming for a distinct departure and playful liberation in sound.
Immerse yourself in the mesmerizing depths of "Coal Phase-Out" available on CD and digital formats via HANDS, and experience the transformative power of sound.

Less glitchy that previous releases, imminent skews more complex experimentation on mythrality. This 3-track "EP" is very atmospheric with insidious tones, but serene and surreal in its tone. DAS VILLAIN

aagggghh this is so good!! The press release does not exaggerate - Orphx manage to find new vistas of intensity on this release. Sau Zuk is a very special accomplishment - the worlds of metal scraping industrial and techno come together in a truly gruesome union here. The last time I heard this accomplished so well would have been Perc's Jmurph, which is a decade ago now. Showing some deep appreciation for these fellow Ontarians!! wahrearbeitwahrerlohn
