about

Natascha Gangl is an author based in Vienna. She has published two books – Wendy fährt nach Mexiko (2015) and Das Spiel von der Einverleibung. Frei nach Unica Zürn (2020) – and numerous texts in multiple magazines. Next to this “traditional” literary work she has cooperated with musicians, written for (puppet) theatres and participated in artistic research projects. Natascha is fond of the Spanish language and has been travelling back and forth between Austria, Spain & Mexico since 2006. Her eclectic style and multi-disciplinary scope have led to a broad following and have resulted in her winning several awards for her writing.

… how & why:

Natascha came into Clemens Radauers scope thanks to her cooperation with Maja Osojnik for the puppet theatre piece ORAKEL UND SPEKTAKEL. Ein Fest für Unica Zürn which was shown in 2017. The performance turned into an abstractly beautiful world full of strong words, entangling music and otherworldly images. Luckily Natascha and Maja continued working together, joined forces with Matija Schellander and their fruitful cooperation led to the invention of a new format: the Klangcomic / Soundcomic – audio dramas consisting of short vocal snippets paired with soundscapes and songs. Psychedelic is what he would call this combination of erratic single image stories with experimental sound.

When Clemens Radauer invited Natascha to the recording she was working on a theatre piece called PICK MICH AUF! which was inspired loosely by the Austrian author Friederike Mayröcker. Natascha proposed to record some excerpts from the piece together with Cimon Finix aka Simon Dietersdorfer. The memorable recording session on the 3rd of June 2021 resulted in 33 beautiful vinyls.

The next day Clemens received a message by Natascha telling him that sadly Friederike Mayröcker had passed away the morning after the recording session. We would like to dedicate this record to her and her amazing heritage.

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.
