This is what test tube said about this release
«Siegmar Fricke started his first musical experiments back in 1981, using tape-recorders and shortwave-radio signals to create collages of musique concrète that has been recorded on various cassettes. After intense activities in the european tape scene from 85 to 93, Siegmar founded the project 'Efficient Refineries' together with Miguel A. Ruiz from Madrid, who was already active in the spanish electronic music scene since the 80's. Fricke's new solo work 'Pharmaceutik 06' was recorded at his studio in september 2006 and is his clearest musical statement so far, defining his view concerning "Pharmakustik", a new electronica genre in its own right. According to Fricke, «Pharmakustik might be a new path of sound-innovation in today's technological music that often lacks the approach of intense electromodulation by focusing just on preset sounds, melodies and familiar song structures. Instead, Pharmakustik consists of reduced and syncopated rhythmic patternsm clinically filtered ambiences generated by sampling-technology, electro-modulated voices and linear structure. In detail, all single audio elements are heavily modulated by various electronic devices and therefore very futuristic and abstract. So far, the analogue and digital sound processing is the most important condition to create a medical pharma-sound that is clinical, artificial and of highest modulation standard. Automatic rhythm sequences are digitally dissected by bit-crushing and organic ambiences are constantly morphing by trembling waveforms and pitch-curves of complex effect periphery. Metallic minimalism of the rhythmic elements are combined with wide space-ambience. 'Pharmaceutik 06' is robotronic neuroblast in clear digital resolution and constant cellular orphing.» Technical explanations apart, what we have here is digital and minimal electronic music that could be one day made by computer algoritms without human intervention. Kind of a 'muzak' concept adapted to medical and laboratory futuristic conditions... when I listen to this, images of George Lucas' THX 1138 feature film come to mind. Sit back and enjoy the treatment.» - Pedro Leitão
