E c u t - (also known as Eckard Friedrich),

is an independent music producer based in Potsdam, southwestern of Berlin.

Beyond Defined Species – the free exposure in experimenting with sound and structure is nearly similar to the path he goes.

Like life is – it was simply a game console when Ecut started producing over ten years ago. Beside of percussion and turntable sets an autarkic working sound was grown. The using of analog and digital sources as well as deeper assimilated vibes are shading colours between black and white.

Just as diverse is the collaboration base he has attracted from all around the world – with names like Catherine Radam (Austria), BudZillus (Ger), Vizual Berlin (Ger), Apjiw (Can), Antonio de Bragga (Can), Paul Groover (GB), Imago Meccano (It) and other in his portfolio. If there is a background then its drawn from life – his music describes stories of different views and tight suggestions – even more a mirror of the phantasmagorium.

After over ten years of producing, deejaying and playing with live bands he decided to start the independent music label "XOBKISUM".

Beside the label Ecut is working now at coming releases and the audiovisual life act with his combatant Child Apnoe.

Some of the world happenings move deeply
and i can't avoid to reflect some of these.

Kuchi in Persian means "those who move" - migrated across parts of Afghanistan semi-annually with their caravans of goat, sheep, donkeys and camels. In the eyes of the West, Kuchis are famous as silver and lapis lazuli bejeweled and brightly robed, carefree nomads. Kuchis live in a delicate symbiotic relationship with peasants and environment. They are Pashtuns from southwestern and eastern Afghanistan. The Kuchi's lifestyle has been eroded both by long-term changes associated with "modernization" and by devastating short-term events [like the droughts of 1971/2 and 1998/2002, and the wars of the 80s, 90s and today]. Their population was estimated at 2 - 2.5 million in the 60s, 70s and early 80s, but has shrunk to 1.3 - 1.5 million today according to a recent study by the UN's World Food Program.5 Roads, drought, landmines, Russian bombing, U.S. cluster bombs, and war-related impoverishment have all played a role in this halving of the Kuchi population.

"...we used to sing about everything. Women would dance, especially at weddings....but all that has gradually disappeared. Poor people cannot afford drums and music. This war and now this drought have swept everything away."
