APL024 >> KONRAD BAYER - SONGS FOR SUNHI (SUMMERRAIN)
	  [13.09.2004 | MORE ACOUSTIC MINIATURES]


“Songs for Sunhi (Summerrain)” is the third part of a cycle of 
series by Munich digital-folk artist Konrad Bayer. After the 
works “Dreams of Leaving” on Genesungswerk, reflecting Autumn; 
and “Shall We Go To The Park?” reflecting Spring; it’s now time 
to dedicate a series of miniatures to the fading blossoms of the 
German Summer of 2004. This was no Summer at all, compared to the 
heat-wave of 2003, and Konrad makes sure you can feel that it’s 
been quite a rainy one.

“Soon-Now” is a short interlude to prepare on the rain, that is 
going to fall down on “Tokki”. In the background on “Soon-Now”, 
there’s a story narrated in Japanese about Binbougami, the 
Japanese ghost of poverty. Traditionally, ghoststories are 
narrated in Summer and are strongly crosslinked to rain and water. 
“Tokki” continues the direction of “Shall We Go To The Park?” and 
combines acoustic guitar with other odd curiousities to digital 
folklore. For “Tokki”, Konrad sampled a corean Kayageum picking-
instrument – while “Tokki” means “Rabbit” in Japanese. “Kites” 
makes the listener travel to one of the largest cities on earth, 
while the citynoise slowly fades into melodies with the time 
passing by. On “Falling”, the clouds thin out for a little. 
Single sunspots let piano and guitar samples melt off the 
harddisk. “Stay” takes up the feeling of “Tokki”, since again 
it started to rain – nobody should leave now for “The Glassmoon” 
giving an introduction upon the parallel port of Ambient and 
Folk. The outro “A Maze” is a labyrinth of sounds, a guitar 
lick one can lose himself easily. 

Konrad likes to thank krill.minima for the guitar-samples on 
“Tokki” and “Stay”, sarai.net for the samples on “Kites” and most 
thanks go to Sunhi. 

Farewell Konrad, have a good and inspirational time in New-Delhi.
