SUB049

Dogger - The Green Glow

[» Artwork picture] This Subsource release is a piece of musical archeology. Recorded in the winter of 1988/1989, it is actually proto-electronic music. The 'samplers' used were looped cassette tapes, and the recording process involved a lot of dubbing, hence the otherworldly sound quality.
The tracks 'fire' and 'water' were part of a project which aimed at reconstructing a kind of 'all-world' folk music for a fictional nation called 'Pangea'.
Apart from fragments of folk music, the following sounds and instruments were used: voice, 12-string acoustic guitar, fretless bass, electric guitar, saz, korg drummachine, moroccan percussion, african tubular zither, ballophon, german zither (remains thereof), wine glasses, shoes, mud, bridges, water, gulls, trafic, artillery (from 'All quiet on the western front'), paper, cardboard boxes, electric razors, guitar effects (especially analogue delay), steel banisters.
Originally a limited release on tape, entitled "Het Groene Schijnsel" (1989).
