CD cover ascribes AT’s pieces to Wollscheid, and vice versa.
CD index lists only three tracks. Depending on the type of CD player, either 01 or all of 01 / 03 / 05 are hidden and can only be found by backscrolling from the start of each accessible piece. Even then, some CD players do not play them.
Wollscheid’s pieces are source material, AT’s pieces processsed versions.
See A 38:03 for another collaboration with Achim Wollscheid. He also used this piece as a source for C 17.

Description
Metallic, irregular clattering on Wollscheid’s pieces; AT’s processings are mostly static, some with sudden jumps in timbre and dynamic; harsh, electric crackling, hammering and drones; spatial but not for your ambient pleasure. Scrap metal lectures on geology.

Source
Wollscheid’s clattering apparatus, consisting of small metal hammers controlled by a computer; it can be applied to any surface, here obviously metal. A fuller presentation can be found on MOVES (1997) by Wollscheid. Material processed with ring modulator.
