Behind Synesthetic Ivo is clarinetist, composer and rapper Vincent Pongracz. Somewhere between hip-hop, improvised jazz and experimental music mixed with beats and clarinet, we freak out at every take as soon as Synesthetic Ivo then also raps his dadaistic lyrics in invented language. What a beautiful day. What a beautiful session. Vinylograph is infinitely grateful to have the honor of serving as host for Wien33. Wien 33 is an ongoing series of direct to vinyl recordings. Artists are invited to record 7 inch vinyls, 33 units and each one by one, making each vinyl one of a kind. Aras Seyhan is the sound- & recording engineer who is responsible for transporting the sound from the instruments/artists through the vinylograph and onto vinyl. The series WIEN33 is curated by Clemens Radauer, a cultural historian and music aficionado, who has been working in the music context for almost 25 years. He invites artist from different backgrounds – from literature, to experimental music to jazz – active in Vienna or close to the Viennese scene. The artists have full freedom in deciding how and what they want to record… some choose to record one song 33 times and leave the flip-side blank whereas some choose to record 66 different tracks on both sides. Clemens also designs the covers for each recording and decorates them each by hand, making them one of the kind just like every vinyl. If you want to buy one of the 7″ singles of the previous acts, there is the possibility to buy one of the 33 records for 33€ on Vinylograph Bandcamp since today. The proceeds will then fund the next sessions.
