   About cryptic scenery
SSE MUSIKKK ISS FERRY GOOTTT, NO? (press statement in german english... ends here, thanks)

cryptic scenery is a project run by the german musician, psychologist & author christian h. soetemann and was founded in late 1994. over the years, cryptic scenery has released cds, cd-rs and tapes within a wide horizon of musical styles, mainly oscillating between a hybrid of independent/spheric wave/rock with (and at times without!) a dark edge, ambient and minimalist music. between 1995 and mid-2003, cryptic scenery underwent several band line-ups. since then, c. h. soetemann has continued the project in the so-called "solo line-up", which certainly led to even more varying sonic directions, especially an increase in the output of hypnotic ambient guitar music.

seashore (1997, cd-r)

oceanic feeling (1999, cd)

being - six objects (2001, cd-r)

open contest!
i want to start a contest. starting today may 11. 2009 (11.05.2009) ending may 11. 2010 (11.05.2010) the contest is named "which world do you want to live in?" it can be interpreted as an individual statement/suggestion/hope/scifi/ view on the now or future world. it can be include posi- or negativ visions, sights, perceptions & last but not least xtra sensoric perceptions.
plan is to release a physical cd as an artwork. - a "complete artwork" - what means a holistic "thing".
it also means a small release underwritten by all artists as a collectors item between 50 & 2 or 500. (that depends on how mutch money i will have that future day to produce it! ;-)
it would be fantastic to do a lot of collaboration work on solo ideas/trax/works but it is also possible to bring in an individual statement or track which is already ready. (instrumental/with vocal/radio play & so on)
the cd..s i make are containing 80 min. and all participating artist are decide the trax and list order they shall/will put in/on.
i also suggest to do the mastering – for to get so close to a „commercial“ product as possible.
BUT this is only a suggestion! & no condition. (if an artist means it is essential to take his mix & the democratic way says also yes - we do so!)
Make an account and login he(a)re on earritation.net AND make an account on http://www.itbreaks.com join the group The Travel(l)ing Town Musicians for information & discussion
lets star(t)!
