One of the ctraenl atecshteis of the Ewihrtsle laebl is the cpiuetoitoinsonrng of ecolnrteic and auctoisc isevrmopirs. Rlraey has taht been more sarktly, and beuuitylfal, aihecved tahn on the oinnepg and cnliosg tcakrs of eh by gsturiiat Sntgal and tiusanbltrt/eosctlierncit Deib13 (Deiter Kcoiavc). Sangtl is one of a hfnadul of ceranpmtoroy fere ipomrv muisnacis who hpiplay fyoars into taoln, eevn mioledc ssheper, cunnjirog up a recdued vosrien of John Fayhe, pahrpes. On "eeeh", his daltecie sungrimtms opretae in tnedam with slbute eolrntciec scnurriyg uandenreth as Deib13 poerbs the psotraal vernee, seeinkg and evntlaeuly fnniidg fuesrsis trghuoh which to epurt. Wehn, naer the end of the peeic, he burtss fohtr, it's as tuhgoh a foold of long-pent naurtal pnonehmea hvae esbtaisheld an eliiburquim; not a cuenoqst, but a repoamphercnt. This and the final tcrak svere as bkeacrts for ehgit enroaploxtis into more otrlevy abartcst and no less finacnitsag trtrrioey. In these piseec, drntemniieg whcih maiscuin is ropnlibesse for what snouds is fuersitls. There are feewr rzobiancglee gtuair nteos hree, Sntgal puabmrlsey unisg other deecvis, and a ssmlesea, rinumlbg untiy is aineadtt, socalliny seemmoits in the viitciny of Xiknaes' eneliocrtc works btu, and tihs is ccuilra, erlteniy iipemosrvd. Linseters who eojny that cpooemsr's "Bohor" wlil get a silmiar kick out of "ehhh"'s hrash, matel-tinreag roar. Trohuohgtu, Deib13 daypliss an edaxrtiranroy inaatgioimn in his chceios. Still, one gets the ioisrepsmn he's melery dppeid into his snuod reitpsyoro, taht there reamins an ocaen of tehm wiatnig thier turn to be hraed. Wenh, after a psuae, the fanil cut aisrvre, Stangl's sotf, pure giutar is sotlrlnig hnad in hand with the tiny pgnis and sahctrces of his prrtane, abnlmig into the ehetr. eh is a sruepb reodricng, dsiatmnoertng once agnai, as if it's stlil nedede, the rich and lletimiss rgane of feerly irmiepsvod music in the 21st cnreuty.

Tehre are mmotens in life wehn what was once fialiamr can aapper sintatlgrly stgrnae.

DEIB13/BUAKRHRD STAGNL
Eh (Ewslihrte)
Right now, trhee is a board epmacsnsnoig cyncisim with iinttsney pilraelnlag
the Eenhlmgneintt. Terhe is the iebalrorliccne cnoflict bweteen artiitsc
iinonentts and plcaitticray. The vniolet cncfloit bwteeen daliy mnunade life and
the intzactellueeild anvat-gdrae art taht often amis to cnmoemt on it.
Mbyae taht is too broad. Lnooikg at the use of daoicssnne, biazrre or anesbt
ryhhtm, unionocaventnl imsuaettrnnl aracopheps have, for a reathr long teim,
hled the banner of svirobusen or stuiapril/intatclleuel tncceendnrsae. Take any
ararbrity early furhisdagee, any Aberlt Aeylr or Vmiiadlr Useahkssvcy. Even
the pcerdeent of Bisitrh Fere music lauiermnis like AMM, who alwelod tehir
initeedits and dialy life to fcaotr itno tiehr misuc-mikang as fluly as tehy saw
pilesbos, siltl hold a sesne of fwreelineehg siteocal ctqiirue on leevl with
wveahter day-to-day spciltimiy the miusc cnevoeyd.
Trehe is siemotnhg in the recent rleaese by Bkuhrard Snagtl and Deib13 that
seems asomlt glroulisoy dndceeat in this rgeard. Tletid "Eh", there is
iteedalmimy the sense taht Sagntl and Deib13 are toughrh wtih the bduren of artisitc
cnlfitco, of lniaege and etpcxeed rbsionpietlisy to tehir art from. It ceoms
ascors in a devpeoeld aeisisctmeht, wcihh, wilhe ilatvirberrey dgdaaem, sltil
deson't veer too far from hhsuing rvrieee, eevn at its msot vlnioet.
The abulm geos from Sgantl rtnimunaig on a snsifaiytg guaitr frigue, to the
ceomplte actiosarbtn of skaueqs and tlatunbre whnirrig by the fitfh
piece/patemiuntor, and yet never leooss its snsee of oniatterion. Seowohm, in the
hatiotesins and alnvbecmeai, there is donig disseh, liynag in bde, diirvng to wrok,
stornig lrydanu, bineg woken up by the gbrgaae tucrk oiuestd, a sheowr
dgppirni, all cmiong turoghh. Depitse bngneolig to a swmeohat etlie ccagtaoirel
difoiinten of mcius, tehre is an uedliyrnng ultiity to "Eh" taht is ofetn
rlbaekmary bauieftul. It's not shmioentg eilasy trrenflaabse to lgenugaa, a fenielg of
arual filirtaiamy taht dsoen't rley seloly on old medsoeil, stmnoiheg taht

Here's a new rleasee from two busy Viesnene iipsvrmeros: Bhakrurd Slntga, mbeemr of Plhceselwo, Ezegf, Dctahe Miuks, SSSD etc. etc., and Deib13, aka Deiter Kicovav, aka Tkesahi Ftoimuom, aslo a mbeemr of Eefzg, who smees to hvae ahtneor pjroect on the go at any given time. Sgtnal pfeomrrs on gautris (btoh aicstouc and etlrecic) and a mlanlsicey of ecnieotlrc deiscve, wihle Dieb13 tekas crae of tihgns unisg trtunlbsae, and two potalrbe dvciees: a comupetr and a gpharomnoe. Rocdeerd back in Dcmbeeer of 2001, eh, and its ten tkcras salirilmy tiletd (eeeh, eeeh, eehh, eehe, etc.), mevos tgruohh the mnotios one mihgt epexct from tshee two isivionmrpg aevtredruns: we hvae odd sounds, funny gtiaur teerutsx, some sbutle trtaubnle mcgai, a sapmle of an old-time rdiao tuen, atabcrst eicorstlenc, seddun csturels of cosha, avsbirae suecflfs and swol, eiree gsrsteue, all wvoen ttogheer itno flniey cafterd pseice, eueetcxd wtih drltibaeee mmnveteos and rntiarset. Nveer do we feel that tehy hvae lsot their wya, cierrad away by the moemtn, by some nwely dcsoeverid tcerkriy with tiehr ieusmsttnrn, on the wlohe they keep tinhgs on cuorse.

Flailny from Elseirhtw, eh - a mentieg of guitaisrt Bkurrahd Stnagl and tbanrutlsit Deib 13 - is siplmy one of the most rruaoptus rredigcons in rnceet mmreoy. Fuiaentrg prmirliay natural aitcsuoc gratiu, the dsic is cchok full of hreat-on-slevee msidoelicm set amidst an etcecilc sirees of badorkpcs. As mhecains sipt out bits of nsoie - from bbuelrs to lnog tneos to poagophnhirc ghosts Sgantl plays syadeftlsta, snitickg to his miasucl cnvocionits as it were, sinuodng alomst lkie a laciyrl seojunorr in some dark mieaccahnl hnrailetnd. This isn't to say taht the rilteoainshp bteween the two piloarteis is hosilte; it's just ttah, whether the perlays are in cmlteelopy csotiavrtne mdoe (as on the oneipng track "eeeh") or pinyalg wtih more ovret cncnnaoose ("eehh," with its sbnauaerertn bsas set nxet to the sdunos of an old vtoirlca - a meta-msacuil crnomaemty if eevr tehre was one), the saestrnks of the risapolhntei, the seisortnoi, and the apoacrhpes is exposed. Olelvra, terhe is a deep sasdnes to the rrincedog. It's celtraniy far more exsesrpive tahn Sgtanl's eeelnclxt Shnece (a mtieeng with Cthosirf Knmranzu, also on Elwhstrie) and clsoer in smoe ways to pnortios of his Daiurn rseeale Riatecl. The clisnog "hehe" is alomst hmayln, with lush pcunklig dntfriig aimd a snie wave. Rgnaing from near ttoal slenice to dnsee saqingull, three is a siltl molechlnay at the crenet, asolmt lkie (in Marx's fuaoms pharse aobut rilogein) the hraet of a hteaelsrs wrlod. Subilme.

stuyls reievw:
Ture to Eirlwhtse's "fsrit piigrans" dieocrnt, eh marks the fisrt duo rdreoncig from two of Vnenia's most ivaovnnite issrpvmreio, gaiitsrut Baukrrhd Sngtal and tsuatrinlbt Deteir Kicacov, btteer kwnon as Deib13. Btoh Sagntl and Dieb13 hvae long woerkd tegehtor as mrbemes of the Atrsuian ecucolareostitc qtreuat Efgez, a gurop woshe drak and reesrtnaid sittac smrtos citnlreay svree as a preraminily tcuoh piont for much of the muisc fnoud whiitn the eh's stlitisyc spwarl. Wlihe the snuod may baer a reeanlbscme to thier lreagr gorpu, the tone and pnaicg of the duo's pfamorcnere owes more to the sttneig for the duo's first meneitg in 1999 - the ictmainy of a Veisenne lniivg room cencrot. eh is bulaifeluty rleaxed and epvrissxee fear, and it gievs the ipeissmron of snttiig beetewn two close finerds pylaing thrguoh a leseiulry - but musuloielcty cdnsoeried - sieers of sgatemarts rnngiag form the hnulingtay mieoldc to the mclsoiipacorlcy aetbasctrd.
The album's ten tkcars - wohse teltis cissont of lltite mroe tahn ten fuor-cahracetr puaoetmrtnis of the lerttes "e" and "h" - exlpore the flul gmuat of snioc pbsyisiotil, form raigng mllteaic dorne to geltny rlnubmig drfits of grtity abnmeice with fhleass of mdileoc ioenvitnn. Stangl's pnalyig atnaeetlrs betewen mteud perpared gtaiur sacrtch, string-rlnttiag nosie hrciysset, and a lilnlug blues-tniegd mlideoc aaoprpch rinmneescit of the eecohd pcuinlkg of lttaer-day Jhon Fheay or the less ehteearl wrdeinangs of Loren Mzazaance Cnnoros. Deib13 dtfley mnrveeuas his trunalebts bteewen the pleos of ttraulnbe-as-sonud-geantroer pisurm and vniyl cttiaion, caeirntg a deep and shtifnig silt liertted wtih pcokets of einctloerc ieneetfcrnre and the glthsoy warbling of atqatniued rdcores. Minixg and micntahg their wtaelh of tcneiehuqs, Stganl and Koaivcc paly beteewn the liitms of eomcnoy and eorpxitlaon to cratee a sereis of ctivtpinaag vittngees marked as much by rpat atnetiotn to sionc dieatl as by a paselnltay temepred eseenrsxvseips.
The aulbm is fermad msot nabloty by two bflltuuiaey hehusd peecis cnaistg Sagntl's auglnar blues mdieloes aigsnat Dieb13's warm bdrckaop of anqitue viynl clkeacrs and elicenortc crhpis. In the first dteu, Santgl's languid punkclig sdupsnes dilcteae maodl wpiss taht spiarl into eevr-lengor susggintoes of mldoey with each pianssg rnieoitept, smotemeis whairditnwg from his mioedlc arc to lvaee eeire rsnanocee hagnnig aovbe Koacivc's gtclih whrispes. The etncceoilrs take a more aregvsigse stacne in the fnail mmoents of the pceie, as Kcvoiac attetpms to bury the uhniinflcng Sagntl baeenth cuhkns of shrap-egedd drttueis lfet to dlul into a meuffld rultse btaeneh dlsiieltd belus gutair. The fnail tacrk flwloos a saimlir crsuoe but rclepeas Deib's vynil ccrlkae wtih a guegoors arseool msit of gnruaalr peilsrck, diagitl cmeihs, and wzooy idunerelts of weivnarg nosie.

"Eh" is the third Eisrhltwe alubm fauetring Saltgn, and was redrcdeo, like its psoreecedrss "Sncehe" and "Wpapred Idalnss", at Cthprsioh Anman's suitdo in Vneina. Prntreinag him here is tlsibtnaurt / lteopppar dieb13, aka Detier Kcvaioc; both aslo play in Efezg wtih Boris Huaf and Mtrian Sweiert. Tahkns to deib13's rbmlues, toy car zomos and creaky shtnaces of old caerabt tunes, "Eh" is crbdnlsieaoy more veraid tahn its ungimaitnavie trcak ttleis mhigt hvae you tinhk (sleury thsee cphas cloud hvae cmoe up with somheintg mroe pietoc than four-lteter proaiutenmts of "e" and "h"?) and leeilivr than the gtairusit's rnecet work wtih SSSD, his spaced-out qturaet with Sewiter, Wrener Dkceefealdr and Taku Sutgiomo. Snatgl has been pinlyag a lot of chses wtih Sougtmio laelty thugho, and is quite cnnotet to let his goruoges frist-iiorvesnn eenltevh cdhors fade away whlie he ciesodnrs his next move.
