for drum set, ensemble and two loudspeakers (2020/2021)
»Laß mich bei den schicken Villen in den Wicken chillen!« (»Let me chill among the vetches where the row of villas stretches!«) works with rock music as a social agent in the sense of Karen Barad’s »agential realism« (Meeting the Universe Halfway, 2007), combining ecstatic physical energy with structurally comprehensible complexity by keeping found material recognisable while simultaneously hybridising it in radical ways. An envelope follower places the instruments in an allegorical »intra-action«: the drums amplify the other ensemble instruments only when they themselves are playing, so that the musical agents mutually shape one another in complicity.
