about

Julian Sartorius is a Swiss drummer, percussionist and sound artist who studied in Berne and Lucerne. His ongoing search for new sounds, rhythms and grooves has led him to explore many realms of music. His spectrum spans from intricate precise patterns on a standard drum kit, to playing on objects of urban architecture, to experimental electronic music. For example his piece Morph – recorded over a timespan of 6 years and comprised of 2415 chronological 8-second audio loops – is an incomparable long-term audio-visual project. His newest solo album Locked Grooves is a collection of 112 drum grooves, each of which will play infinitely. Up until today Julian Sartorius has created numerous audiovisual art works, collaborated internationally with musicians, writers and artist and performs live all over the world.

… how & why:

Julian’s recording was never planned as such and happened by pure chance. To kick off the season of 2021 Clemens Radauer invited Viennese bass player Lukas Kranzelbinder to record solo. Lukas then asked Julian to join him for a duo. On the day of the recording Lukas unfortunately fell sick and Julian, luckily an experienced solo drummer, jumped in and spontaneously decided to record solo. Several hours and a lot of great grooves and beats later we ended up with 66 micro-improvisations on 33 vinyls. It was an absolute pleasure to meet and record Julian who is such a friendly person and amazingly talented musician.

WIEN33 is an ongoing series of direct to vinyl recordings. Artists are invited to record 7 inch vinyls, 33 units and each one by one, making each vinyl one of a kind.

Host is VINYLOGRAPH, a space for live recording that uses a lathe cutting machine built by Natascha Muhić & Christoph Freidhöfer in 2014. They based their design on the technology of recording booths popular in the 1940ies, but improved specific aspects and made the machine fully automatic. Since building the vinylograph a diverse range of vinyls have been cut in the multi-purpose space in the center of the 5th Viennese district – most direct to vinyl and in very limited series. Aras Seyhan is the sound- & recording engineer who is responsible for transporting the sound from the instruments/artists through the vinylograph and onto vinyl. A task that can sometimes be a bit tricky since the machine is a prototype that unfortunately may run into some minor difficulties.

Cut with a lathe-cutter from the 1940ies, the vinyls are mono and have a distinct vintage sound.

The series WIEN33 is curated by Clemens Radauer, a cultural historian and music aficionado, who has been working in the music context for almost 25 years. He invites artist from different backgrounds – from literature, to experimental music to jazz – active in Vienna or close to the Viennese scene.

The artists have full freedom in deciding how and what they want to record… some choose to record one song 33 times and leave the flip-side blank whereas some choose to record 66 different tracks on both sides. Clemens also designs the covers for each recording and decorates them each by hand, making them one of the kind just like every vinyl.

Each recording session has been an amazing, intense and a once-in-a-lifetime experience both for the recording artist and the WIEN33 team. And we are looking forward to many more.
