‘Moto Perpetuo’ is an absorbing study on impossible physics from drummer Michael Anklin and producer Kilchhofer for the carefully plotted Marionette label
Following the tangled paths of their previous releases, including Burnt Friedman’s roiling percussions, Soundwalk Collective’s textured field recordings, and Max Loderbauer’s abstract synthesis, Kilchhofer & Anklin combine all the above into the mazy energy transfers of ‘Moto Perpetuo’, where the duo strive to manifest the idea of ‘Moto Perpetuo’, or perpetual motion - where no energy is lost but also where energy is constantly being created - in a series of kinetic electro-acoustic environments informed by the natural world.
“A fluid concept of time where the Rhythmic Pulse constantly shifts is at the heart of the record.The idea was to create an instrument where acoustics and electronics are interconnected and dependent on each other. The smallest disturbance could sway the entire system out of order. This idea of a circular motion was at the center of the recording process and is also reflected in the artwork which resembles a topographical view of a closed natural habitat.
Kilchhofer and Anklin draw inspiration mainly from their rural surroundings, mountain landscapes where natural overtones and stumbling rhythms navigate through high plateaus and velds to stony ravines and wooden trails - on a never ending quest for an "ur-klang“; a primordial, ancestral music.”
