Title Description:
This amazing 76min CD contains Ehlers' complete Plays vinyl, originally released on Staubgold and the Dutch Bottrop-Boy label. Staubgold released the mini LPs Plays Albert Ayler, Plays John Cassavetes and Plays Hubert Fichte while the 7" singles Plays Robert Johnson and Plays Cornelius Cardew came out on Bottrop-Boy. 'The 'Plays' series deals with 'reference'', explains Ehlers. 'Everyone is sampling; sampling is the figure of historic devices in digital music. My idea is not to sample, but to refer to historic places and figures.' For the series Ehlers has assembled an intriguing constellation of figures, from actor/film maker John Cassavetes to German author Hubert Fichte, and only the Cardew pieces contain actual samples. 'Reference is a basic structure in digital music'.
