Text by Peter Kutin (Dirac):

Our way to create a record is based on the simple principle of direct-recording â~@" which means the shape and form of our music is basically created within one moment. It is not only about meeting in a studio to do the recordings, but to stay together at one place with a focus on creating music and concentrated listening each day.The isolation from other musical inputs and the reduced input in general, being far off from bigger cities, far off an everyday-live takes you to the point when you don't want to sound like something you know, you just want to search, experiment and play. John Cage said, that experimental music is where the outcome can't be foreseen. These things happen through passion and not ambition.

For â~@~Xemphasis', we again went to Salzburg, where we could set up our gear in the basement of Florian's parents house for one week â~@" the same place we recorded our first album â~@~Xdirac'.We recorded about 4 hours everyday , experimenting with different materials and instruments. We later listened to the results at the studio garnison7 in Vienna and did more editing work in a small hut up in the snowy austrian mountains in February 2008 â~@" it was cold, electricity was short, but it was silent.
