  • Übersee tape-edition
    Cassette + Digital Album

    Since the beautiful Handstitched*-CD sold out very quickly I decided to offer a small tape-edition (11 tapes only - as the number of tracks) in self-release in Oberlin´s Private Edition (OPE 002). The tapes are home-dubbed in real time, inscribed by hand and also numbered on the inside. Tracks are the same as on CD, running-order is a little different.

about

Übersee is an album containing an hour-long journey to various places across the sea. Places all unknown to me, I tried to imagine their atmospheres and mysteries by the sound of their names and their location on the map and then transfer them into sound.

recorded with a Eurorack Modular system and electric guitar in 2018 at Oberlin's Studio 4 in Koblenz, Germany

Mastered by Tim Diagram at Roadmap Studios.

all music by Alexander Holtz

Many many thanks to the wonderful Handstitched*-label for the release of the beautiful CD-edition.
