Der Wiener Ambient- und Dub-Virtuose Ulrich Troyer bringt am 20. September eine weitere Auskopplung seines kommenden Albums “” heraus. Die beiden Tracks “Latzfonser Kreuz” und “Feltuner Hütte” enthalten Beiträge renommierter Gäste, die den Songs auf einer ambienten Basis ein mal entspannt rhythmisches, mal beinahe krautig psychedelisches Gepräge geben. In der Beschreibung von DJ und Radiohost Steve Barker heißt es: “Mamadou Diabate, originally from Burkina-Faso and now resident in Vienna, who is also a world- famous virtuoso balaphon player, collaborates on “Latzfonser Kreuz” with fellow countryman Hamidou Koita to produce a remarkable percussion track, both singing and employing talking drum and djembe to come up with a sound that can only be described as dubbed-out Nyahbinghi-style electro-beats! The track
references the little church at Latzfonser Kreuz, which is the highest pilgrimage spot in South Tyrol, one of the highest in Europe; every year in June, the Black Lord, a black carved Gothic wooden cross, is brought from the village church in Latzfons to the pilgrimage church, where it remains throughout the summer. On the flip for “Feltuner Hütte” Ulrich Troyer is joined by co-producer Osman Murat Ertel, founding member of the electro-psych-folk group Baba Zula from Istanbul, who has worked internationally for many years collaborating with the likes of Jaki Liebezeit, Fred Frith and Mad Professor. But here Murat takes us on a dub psych-out trip with his favoured electric saz, with wha wha FX, delay and echo, like Link Wray meeting King Tubby on the old streets of Istanbul.”. Die Single erscheint als Vinyl-7″ bei 4Bit Productions und ist auch digital erhältlich.
