LOKOMOTIV KONKRET (2nd LP - URSPÅR, 1979)



This is the earliest recording with Sten Sandell.
At least the first side sounds more like "Industrial" than Free Jazz/Improvisation.
Dror Feiler - the "leader" of this group is also a well known contemporary composer.
His compositions are mostly harsh and noisy and beautiful.
At least once a group of contemporary musicians refused to play a composition - which was announced only very shortly before the concert. They said that his music were too loud, although the same musicians rehearsed the piece before...
Does nowadays scandals come rather from the musicians than from the public?

Hear for yourself.

  2. Great band! I really like their early stuff.
    The incident you mention must be the one described on Feiler's wikipedia page. As for scandals, i think they are really the thing of the past.
    Thanks a lot for all the wonderful music!

  3. I really only thought about a concert were the piece "Halat Hisar" was not played by members of the Bavarian Symphonic Orchestra. A slip of paper was handed to the concertgoers which complained about the intense dynamics of the piece.
    One "fellow" composer even "advised" Dror Feiler to rewrite the composition.
    This happened on 4th April, 2008 at the Herkulessaal - during the 16th "music viva" Festival - in Munich.

  12. I didn't know this musician and this band. It is a very singular voice, his music is very interesting and also his political commitment.
    See how censorship can become a part of the creation
