Tape Guitar https://www.gelbfinger.com/Tape-Guitar Thu, 25 Aug 2022 16:36:33 +0000 gelbfinger https://www.gelbfinger.com/Tape-Guitar TAPE GUITAR The tape guitar is a two string electric bass, built from a four track tape recorder. The pitch of the tape playback is controled by the bass strings, while at the same time the strings function like they do on a common e-bass. It is a weird hybrid that allows sound manipulation of recorded tapes through the inbuilt mixer and the increased pitch range with the strings in half tone steps. <img width="600" height="900" width_o="600" height_o="900" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6c315e7b2f8a91682228feb792cbeadf0c29f074ca58bc450a6268869e4af294/2017_12_13_KLAAS-0094_b_web.jpg" data-mid="151296736" border="0" data-scale="45" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/600/i/6c315e7b2f8a91682228feb792cbeadf0c29f074ca58bc450a6268869e4af294/2017_12_13_KLAAS-0094_b_web.jpg" /> photo: Jason Fosco SMOG music setup https://www.gelbfinger.com/SMOG-music-setup Sat, 05 Jul 2025 23:55:42 +0000 gelbfinger https://www.gelbfinger.com/SMOG-music-setup Sediment & Smog https://www.gelbfinger.com/Sediment-Smog Mon, 22 Aug 2022 18:14:56 +0000 gelbfinger https://www.gelbfinger.com/Sediment-Smog SEDIMENT & SMOG VIDEO<img width="1080" height="1080" width_o="1080" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c0fed5958a89c1c06bfa4f7f20f3e2b8a6f365b99e923be5495d7bb652e9f1e8/28516378_1686443008082920_8466668019878332115_o.jpg" data-mid="151035887" border="0" data-scale="41" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c0fed5958a89c1c06bfa4f7f20f3e2b8a6f365b99e923be5495d7bb652e9f1e8/28516378_1686443008082920_8466668019878332115_o.jpg" /> a driving tribal experience spanning from the sound of million year old slate stones (Simon Berz / electrified lithophone) to the electromagnetic fields (Klaas Hübner) of modern consumer goods; power chargers, hard drives, phones and tiny motors. photo: Vadim Levin SMOG installation https://www.gelbfinger.com/SMOG-installation Mon, 22 Aug 2022 22:23:25 +0000 gelbfinger https://www.gelbfinger.com/SMOG-installation SMOG a pendulum is orbiting in ever changing  circles over a  field of electronic devices.

The instrument contains 4 fans. Each has different size corrugated tubes attached that are changing their musical pitch depending on the rotational speed of the fans. The “Château Poulet” was born and is used in the Music Box Village for public workshops and open hours and for musical performances of local and international artist. Among them Peaches, Animal Collective, Tony Allen, Sun Ra Arkestra, Quintron, Mars Williams(Psychedelic Furs), William Parker, Wilco, Arto Lindsay and many more. In 2017 the Music Box invited us again. This time to do a new version of the Instrument for the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA). While the Château Poulet has an electric motor to drive the fans, the new version is hand powered with cranks, has 5 fans and an increased range of pitch. The name of the “Carrugarou” is a combination of the word “corrugation”, since the sounding tubes are corrugated like a corrugaphone, and the word “loup-garou” which is french for werewolf because of its howling sound.  The Corrugarou is part of a MASS MoCA collection of sound installations which are found all arround the museeum in public spaces of North Adams. After beeing located in front of the museum for several years it has now its home in a little forrest along the Hossic River close to the Mohawk Trail.            <img width="1024" height="768" width_o="1024" height_o="768" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3cb4815b97c8e3dd924400089e3d6c3b076aea9653cd0ca32d8a554f39bc0b2b/ChateauPoulet_500kb.jpg" data-mid="151401990" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3cb4815b97c8e3dd924400089e3d6c3b076aea9653cd0ca32d8a554f39bc0b2b/ChateauPoulet_500kb.jpg" /> <img width="605" height="454" width_o="605" height_o="454" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e54372af37fb8b76c9b8604266aefd12d3fb3978f4170f204c8f324a5ae5bc69/IMG_2146_web.jpg" data-mid="151402076" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/605/i/e54372af37fb8b76c9b8604266aefd12d3fb3978f4170f204c8f324a5ae5bc69/IMG_2146_web.jpg" /> <img width="518" height="777" width_o="518" height_o="777" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e9b79f71a475c52de5ea329205b30dbff4c81721a7fe4fedc2f10687265c96c3/IMG_9666_web.jpg" data-mid="151401993" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/518/i/e9b79f71a475c52de5ea329205b30dbff4c81721a7fe4fedc2f10687265c96c3/IMG_9666_web.jpg" />                   Releases https://www.gelbfinger.com/Releases Tue, 23 Aug 2022 19:02:04 +0000 gelbfinger https://www.gelbfinger.com/Releases music for ceiling fan and tubes ︎ Music for Ceiling Fan and Tubes by Klaas Hübner Friendly Rich Sings The Nihilist Spasm Band ︎ FRIENDLY RICH sings THE NIHILIST SPASM BAND by Friendly Rich Smog_193211 / MAGNUM OPUS COLLECTIO SERIES: NIGREDO ︎ MAGNUM OPUS COLLECTIO SERIES: NIGREDO by Various Artists SOG ︎ SOG by Klaas Hübner Blaak Tyvek, T10 ︎ T-10 by blaak tyvek Hilot Lilanth, healing pain ︎ healing pain by Hiłot Lilanth Oscilatorfruitjuice by Ayakoko and Klaas Hübner<img width="1417" height="1417" width_o="1417" height_o="1417" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1829655ab96fe3e2594238951d3e08d61f207be515d064a73bd941a633e73b0c/ca197_02_front.jpg" data-mid="235436978" border="0" data-scale="31" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1829655ab96fe3e2594238951d3e08d61f207be515d064a73bd941a633e73b0c/ca197_02_front.jpg" /> Salonbruit Retrospective 2002-2011 <img width="800" height="800" width_o="800" height_o="800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/51181e985b64d2aa1b3596ab3bf184e8c9c73dbddd5421a0c1ceaa7e71af95d8/Berlin_Retrospective_2002-2011-9194.jpg" data-mid="235436984" border="0" data-scale="31" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/800/i/51181e985b64d2aa1b3596ab3bf184e8c9c73dbddd5421a0c1ceaa7e71af95d8/Berlin_Retrospective_2002-2011-9194.jpg" /> Track 15 as Hilot Lilanth with Evolution Control Committee (USA)Track 19 as Matchees with Kyynan Tan (AUS)
