Perifaerye is at once a record release, a book, a website; in the autumn of 2023 a series of playlists were published on billboards, linking the online soundscapes to the real-life physical realm. This publication is an artistic hybrid: a vinyl record \/ book combining sound, image and text.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The 18 audio works condense the sounds of the urban periphery into a sonic cartography. In Hamburg-Eidelstedt, people live in smaller detached houses and in larger apartment blocks. New housing estates have been developed recently in direct neighbourhood to the motorway, and currently in the district centre; a district where post-war housing estates and architectural remnants from a village past co-exist. Even meadows and fields, surrounded by the noise of motorways and other traffic, aeroplanes (the airport is close by) and railways (passenger and und freight trains, long distance, regional and local services). This collection of soundscapes \u2013 each a short composition on its own \u2013 presents a sonic portrait of a contemporary urban area.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the spring 2023, Jorn Ebner recorded the urban spaces of the Hamburg district of Eidelstedt. For each audio piece there is an image. The artist\u2019s writings reflect and accompany the creative process.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For this book and record, Sebastian Kokus and Thomas Korf created a very haptic design. Each part of the whole can be experienced as a single piece: the A2-sized poster is part of the outer sleeve; the booklet presents image and text (German only); the record is visible through the holes in the inner and outer sleeves and forms part of the cover.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The work was funded by the Freie und Hansestadt Hamburg, Beh\u00f6rde f\u00fcr Kultur und Medien<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Tracklist<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A1 Specht | 0:53 min<br \/>\nA2 Sonne | 2:08 min<br \/>\nA3 Skulptur | 2:10 min | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/03-Skulptur-38sec.mp3\">MP3<\/a><br \/>\nA4 Immenweide | 2:04 min<br \/>\nA5 Glasw\u00e4nde | 1:01 min<br \/>\nA6 Weidplan | 2:05 min<br \/>\nA7 An der M\u00fchlenau | 2:44 min<br \/>\nA8 Zement | 2:10 min<br \/>\nA9 Am Morgen | 2:28 min | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/09-Am-Morgen-30sec.mp3\">MP3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>***************<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>B1 Pflugacker | 1:32 min  | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/10-Pflugacker-36sec.mp3\">MP3<\/a><br \/>\nB2 Plattenladen | 1:43 min<br \/>\nB3 Sark | 1:23 min<br \/>\nB4 Wildacker | 2:19 min | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/13-Wildacker-30sec.mp3\">MP3<\/a><br \/>\nB5 Magnolien | 2:20 min<br \/>\nB6 Zentimeter | 2:00 min<br \/>\nB7 Feldmark | 2:23 min<br \/>\nB8 An der Kollau | 2:17 min<br \/>\nB9 Am Abend | 0:55 min<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>18 Tracks  (34\u201935\u2019&#8216;)<br \/>\nVinyl (300 copies)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Booklet, 24 pages (incl. cover)<br \/>\nVinyl-LP, with printed outer and inner sleeve<br \/>\nPoster, A2<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Recorded in  Hamburg Eidelstedt Februar-April 2023<br \/>\nEdited &#038; mixed in Berlin Kreuzberg Mai-Juni 2023<br \/>\nMastering Manmade Mastering, Berlin<br \/>\nDesign T.E.O.T.H.<br \/>\nDrawings and writings Jorn Ebner<br \/>\nFant\u00f4me Verlag, Vol. 80 \/ ISBN 978-3-940999-60-3<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Soundscape Series by Gruenrekorder<br \/>\nGermany \/ 2023 \/ Gruen 219 \/ LC 09488<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"reviews\"><\/a><strong>Reviews<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.textura.org\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">textura<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nBless Gruenrekorder&#8217;s ever-beating experimental heart. The German company has never strayed from supporting unusual projects, and its latest Soundscape Series releases are quintessential exemplars of the label&#8217;s vision. Issued on a gorgeous slab of purple vinyl (a 300-copy edition), Perifaerye is built around soundscape recordings Berliner Jorn Ebner collected in spring 2023 of urban spaces in the Hamburg district of Eidelstedt and is presented as a multi-part work comprising audio, images, and text. The cassette release Gold Lines (200 copies), on the other hand, is the brainchild of Paris-based DinahBird and Jean-Philippe Renoult and presents recordings of Super High Frequency radio waves, signal noise, and field recordings. The material collected by the sound artists between 2016 and 2020 originated from antenna bases from Chicago to New York and London to Frankfurt. Both releases (also available, of course, digitally) are uncompromising in their sound presentation, but they&#8217;re also engaging and thought-provoking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Perifaerye is a striking physical product that augments its eighteen action-packed soundscapes with thirty-six drawings, twenty-four texts (the latter displayed in German only), and a fold-out poster (a web site was also created that links online soundscapes to their real-world counterparts). Eighteen images appear in the booklet and eighteen on the sleeve housing the vinyl disc. Ebner produced the drawings and texts; as stated, the thirty-six minutes of audio were captured by him from urban areas within Hamburg-Eidelstedt. Those with no command of German will have little clue as to how text and image connect; even in the absence of such clarity, the project is still fascinating to look at and listen to.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As eye-catching as the visual pieces are, the audio component is the primary aspect. Collectively a sound portrait of a particular urban zone containing small detached homes and apartment buildings, the material blends the sounds of humans and industrial phenomena, from the locale&#8217;s people and cars to airplanes and trains, into eighteen mini-collages. They&#8217;re not undoctored field recordings, by the way. Ebner&#8217;s shaped the material into compositions by sometimes assembling elements into metronomic rhythmic structures and by repeating fragments, moves that strangely give a number of these abstract entities an almost pop song-like form. Mangled chatter and laughter, the hydraulic noise of writhing machines, twittering birds, the violent cawing of crows, the clip-clop of horse hooves, burbling water, typewriter clacks, audience applause, worksite hammering, the shriek of a passing train\u2014all such bits coalesce to form a vivid evocation of an urban centre where residents and workers go about their daily lives.
