BURST by KLOTZ WENZEL VETHAKE

Burst“ is he first musical collaboration of Manuel Klotz, Karla Wenzel and Tobias Vethake.
Klotz, Wenzel & Vethake ignite an extreme openness and courage in their improvisations, free from every restrictions or codes. It is about communication and reflexion, about creating a most honest and unified voice. And although it is necessary in our algorithmic times to label music with styles and genres, which in this case would maybe be Noise, Drone, Off Contemporary and Free Jazz, the work of Manuel Klotz, Karla Wenzel & Tobias Vethake can be best described.

Their creative connection leads back to 2017, when Klotz did release the debut of Slutty Clowns, a project of Wenzel and Vethake, on his label Loft Editions. Later on Vethake and Klotz collaborated on the Dialog album by Sicker Man aka. Tobias Vethake and also released two tapes as Manuel Klotz & Sicker Man.

Throughout the years all three have discovered their similar passion for music by Ornette Coleman, Caspar Brötzmann and Cecil Taylor.
In 2022 the idea came up, to create something with a similar attitude, but different means and structures.


“Value judgments are destructive to our proper business, which is curiosity and
awareness.”
(John Cage)

„It was when I found out I could make mistakes that I knew I was on to something“
(Ornette Coleman)

“I have the nerve to walk my own way, however hard, in my search for reality, rather than
climb upon the rattling wagon of wishful illusions.”
(Zora Neale Hurston)

Experimental label for very small limited editions of tapes and printed stuff.

Failed transgressions since 2017.
