Title Description:
Month two of Met Life unveils the first stateside release by the psychedelic electronic duo, AU. Based in Holland, multimedia artists Jan Borchers and Paul Klaui naturally
bring us into the soundworld of the Hague by doing what most everybody there does
- ride their bikes. AU recorded their tour through the city, capturing everything from
the squeaky sound of old bicycle seats to the sudden intrusion of a street parade. The result is a fun panoramic earshot of the city's life imilar in effect to Richard Lerman's great Travelon Gamelon . AU's musical response is a subdued, loose piece incorporating elements of the field recording, analogue electronics and reverberating guitars that recall the efforts of German Krautrock bands like Cluster or a mellowed-out Faust.
