Editorial Reviews

Product Description
2008 release of CD plus archival DVD. Head Resonance Company's swirling miasma of minimal electronics is more than an NDW high wasser mark; it is Teutons of fun. Their Sturm is a little bit DAF and their Drang, a little bit Liaisons Dangereuses (and their Ja Jawohl, a little bit Esplendor Geometrico). Head Resonance Company was formed not only as a musical project, but as an allout art collective, so their particular brand of minimal synth carries a pilsnered reek of experimentalism that raises their standard a bit above the coldwave rank and file of the day. Fairly revolutionary for the 1980-1984 period in which these tracks were recorded.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exploration of Space and Time, November 18, 2008
By David M. Madden "nonnon/dj_webern" (salt lake, utah United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Benjamin Heidersberger and Peter "Pixel" Elsner founded the Head Resonance Company in the late `70s, an organization they used to explore space and time in visual and aural arts (the collective is still going strong today as you can see on the accompanying DVD). This collection of dusty musical archives bears a resemblance to the global attitudes of the time (i.e. Berlin, New York), HRC using whatever instrument at their disposal to craft deft non-music in a post-punk/no-punk era. Scrappy drum machines crackle under walking basslines, synth bells and bit-reduced news reporters ("4"), delay pedals feedback wildly with horn fragments, thunderous brass and "warning!" sirens ("6") and robots make they own version of jazz via Moogs and energy stabs ("10"). The Peter Pixel portion (the last five tracks) is less improvisation, more song structured, but about as pop as Einstürzende Neubauten.
