Controlled Risk [LP]

Swiss saxophonist and electronic pioneer Bruno Spoerri built Switzerland's first private electronic studio in 1970; percussionist Reto Weber moved away from the drum kit toward hand percussion and found sounds. Partners since the 1970s, they cut Controlled Risk live to two-track at Powerplay Studios in Maur in April 1988, Spoerri on sax, synth and the MIDI Synthophone against Weber's percussion. Originally issued by Konnex Records in 1988, it is raw, funny and alert, technology used as an improvising instrument.

Official reissue, newly remastered, with new liner notes by Rudolf Amstutz, in a limited heavyweight sleeve.
