dear listeners, hope that this message finds you well for the more curious among you we have a very nice feature in Chain DLK international magazine

musically-wise, we have completed a new song with Pantaleimon http://www.pantaleimon.com/ the collaboration will appear on a disc featuring her work remixed by the who is who of Industrial cultures: andrew w.k, stephen o'malley, chris and cosey, lilium, andrew liles, colin potter, susan stenger, clodagh simonds and will come out on david tibet's Durtro/Jnana prestigious label. http://www.durtro.com/index3.html
as you might remember last Summer Karl records released a split with Kammerflimmer Kollektief and Strings Of Consciousness 2 songs can be heard on the label site http://www.karlrecords.net/karl.swf
and the third one on our my space http://www.myspace.com/stringsofconsciousness
the vinyl-only 10' is limited to 500 copies ltd. edition (act fast as some are left for purchase and then it will become a collectible), so it sounded like a good idea to make those songs available on a CD, accompanied with remixes by friends and sound-designers whom we respect that will be on OFF and hitting the racks in May
to raise your appetite feel free to hear one of those remixes by Leafcutter John there:
http://www.myspace.com/leafcutterjohn
another one by Gamal Trio there:

and watch that video which will be a Quicktime bonus to the CD
