We continue our series of
experimental live recordings with an audio documentation of
Alexei Borisov's performance in Kaliningrad, Russia.
Alexei Borisov is one of the most prominent and
acclaimed Russian audio artists. He started his career in the
begining of the 1980s as a guitarist for a new wave band
Center, then he created Night Prospekt - an avant-garde,
electronic oriented underground audio collective which won a
huge critical acclaim in Russia.
Known also as a DJ in
Moscow's clubs and radios, he continues his impressive career
as an experimental / noise musician and a member of projects
as known as Volga or F.R.U.I.T.S.
The basic elements of the current recording are
soundfragments from my solo CD "Polished Surface Of A Table",
released by Electroshock in 2004.
The fragments have
been processed by laptop and some analog devices and completed
by voices, foundsounds and manipulations with cassette player,
mp3 player and minidictophone.
The live was supportetd
by a video "Diploma award ceremony", filmed by myself at my
doughter's school in Moscow four years ago and processed later
by Anton Nikkila and myself in Helsinki.
