about

On “Shadowplay” HANS CASTRUP - painter, photographer, video artist and musician – condenses analogue and digital sounds to 12 border-crossing tracks at the gateway between abstract electronics, ambient, avant-garde and sound art.

Born 1957, HANS CASTRUP studied arts at the university of Osnabrück (magister artium) and ever since has been a freelance artist on the fields of painting, photography, video, graphics, music and text. Besides exhibitions in Germany and abroad the honorary member of St. Petersburg’s artists’ association “Phönix” engages regularly in audioplay and media art and won a.o. the first prize of public radio station BR2 for his piece “Living knowledge – Control?” (“Lebendiges Wissen - Kontrolle?”) in 2009. On “Shadowplay” CASTRUP utilizes his working method of multiple layers which he developed in his paintings for his sound design: different analogue or digital sound sources such as synthesizers, effects, computer, field recordings or tape machines are being edited, manipulated and re-organized as abstract-reduced compositions meandering between melodiousness and experimental collages whose reference system ranges from new music and avantgarde to today’s electronics and the likes of BRIAN ENO or CAN. CASTRUP manages to escape the over-applied term “soundtrack for imaginary movies” in a very elegant way – the multi-faceted artist shot an exclusive video clip for each of the album’s twelve tracks which in combination with the music function as a fruitful stimulans for your own thinking.

Goccia
by Giulio Aldinucci

supported by 7 fans who also own “Shadowplay”

Goccia, it's mixing faded recollection from the artist's life and strong memories of the listener, shaping these two halves of lives into a unique imaginary beyond comprehension. Goccia, it's two fragments of reality put together into one dream strongly marked by liturgical features, hinting that the unknown must be a part of our existence to be complete. Goccia, it's a permanent surprise teaching us that the unexpected can be the most beautiful gift if you welcome it like an old friend. Dotflac

Anthology Of Contemporary Music From Africa Continent
by Various Artists

supported by 7 fans who also own “Shadowplay”

The latest installment of USG's music study brings fourth a wondrously bizarre, and enigmatic amalgamation of styles and influences. The artists present here really shine with their unique and mystifying musical experimentation. From a mix of traditional African musical influences, Islamic musical practices, and some just outright otherworldly and highly imaginative compositions Anthology of contemporary music from Africa continent is another USG survey gem, and a must have compilation album.
