blutch
info from Kangman on Discogs :
BLUTCH is an improvised music project, founded by David Treesome and Kim
Kang, organised at least once a year when a group of friends/musicians come
together during a weekend to record music.
Here’s how it works: Everyone brings his own musical instruments, the
musicians split up in groups of 2 or 3. Each pair gets 30 minutes to record one
or more pieces of music onto a multitrack recorder. After their session is over
a second pair can either add music to the first pair’s recordings or start a
whole new track. During the course of the sessions each musician will have
worked with all of the others, because after each session the pairs change.
Also; sometimes all musicians jam at the same time or a musician goes solo. This
process goes on until the end of the weekend.
When all the recordings are finished Kim Kang takes on the incredible task of
mixing all the different pieces, songs, cut-ups etc… into one session. The
result can be a popsong, a bizarre soundscape or pure dada collages…
The first Blutch session took place in 1999.
Material from the first two sessions (recorded in October 1999 and June 2000)
can be found on the first Blutch album.
