   About XABEC



xabec - just a grain of sand - dvd trailer from Leaf Audio on Vimeo.

PLEASE SEE THIS AS AN INFO-PAGE ABOUT XABEC. I AM NO FRIEND COLLECTOR AND NOT INTERESTED IN GETTING HUNDREDS OF REQUESTS FROM RnB OR OTHER STRANGE ARTISTS. IF YOU WANT TO BE MY "FRIEND", YOU OR YOUR MUSIC SHOULD HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH XABEC.

AT LEAST LEAVE A MESSAGE ABOUT YOUR INTENTION, ALL OTHER REQUESTS WILL BE IGNORED. SORRY, IT TAKES TOO MUCH TIME.

Since 1997 Manuel G. Richter is working on experimental composing and sonic art under the moniker XABEC, released some vinyl and cd albums on the german Hands label, Drone Records and a lot of compilation tracks on various labels. He played many live gigs all over europe.

Xabec's music spans the depths between ambient and sound art, between industrial, electronica and modern laptop music. Suspension dominates and the music takes its time to illuminate even the smallest of nuances. Experimentally noisy, subtly woven sound tapestries take the listener through unique soundscapes. Sound color is the vital ingredient of the intensive composition. Other central parameters are dynamics and the perpetual flow of sounds.

Besides his own projects Manuel was co-producing and co-writing Anne Clarks new album "The Smallest Acts Of Kindness", Annes first studio album since more than 10 years. He also did many re-mixes and compositions for Orphx, Hecq, Atmogat, Contagious Orgasm, Floating Stone, Flint Glass, Funker Vogt, Dope Stars Inc, Implant, Polarlicht 4.1 and others.

Xabec is pro human and pro nature. Here is no place for extreme ideologies and fundamentalism. Here is no place for nazi crap or unclear political statements of labels or bands. Fuck you please.

Used instruments generally are: self built acoustic instruments, stones, curetronic modular system, sampling and computer, field recordings and various electronic devices



Watch the song "Full Moon", a track Manuel has written for Anne Clark:

EMPUSAE Mortusae

The Mortusae double cd album is an epic sound release created by Nicolas
Van Meirhaeghe aka Sal-Ocin (This Morn' Omina, Tzolk'in). It includes new
and rare long deleted track and is a journey through time, regions and
atmospheres. Mortusae is a restrospective of different periods of Empusae from
almost a decade. A collection from early releases to more recent
collaborations with friends & musical family. Containing tracks from the legendary
maschinenfest 10 year jubileum, comic-book soundtrack and other never forgotten
but very rare tracks of his first albums which were not released on hands.
All tracks were mastered by Mika Goedrijk (This Morn' Omina, Pow(d)er
Pussy). The red line through Mortusae and also Empusae's essence is dark,
melodic, danceable and atmospheric electronic music based on the human gift
>fantasy<. Merge yourself with beauty and decay, darkness and melancholy,
tribal ceremonies and unearthly misery... enter into oblivion!

Immaterial Monarch is Poordream's own adaptation of a truly exceptional experimental music conception, the absolute experience of an internal trip. Drawing influences mainly from the Zeitgeist movie series, Immaterial Monarch features 3 tracks by Poordream, which carefully blend genres such as IDM, ambient, electronica and experimental world music, as well as the same-titled track remixed by no less than 7 different artists.

Out now as a co-release between 33 Recordings and Spectraliquid.
