The Decoder Ensemble considers the possibilities and consequences of the limitless availability of media in the digital age. All of the pieces here focus in different ways on common contemporary practices like remixing, copying \u0026amp; pasting, sampling, and recycling. An involvement with these techniques is natural for the members of Decoder, three of whom are themselves composers. The group, founded in 2011, calls itself a \"band for contemporary music\" and is actively involved in the newest musical developments and trends including electronics, computer techniques, multimedia, and elements of pop and rock music. The idea for this release grew out of the group's \"Big Data Weekend\". According to clarinetist Carola Schaal, this was a small festival \"organized in 2017 by the Decoder Ensemble for which the group commissioned eight works dealing with the theme of remix. We chose several of those works for this album, as well as a piece by Brigitta Muntendorf that seems to us to fit perfectly with the others.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Play Me back and forth für Stimme, Ensemble und Elektronik \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Lied mit Chor: Nachtigall mit Melodei für Stimmkünstlerin, Ensemble, 4-kanalige Audiozuspielung und Live-Ilektronik \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Hände ohne Orte für Klarinette(n), Schlagzeug, päpariertes Klavier, Violoncello und Soundtrack \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Stack overflow: Expoliting 24 preludes für (Bass) Klarinette, Violoncello, E-Zither, Keyboards, Schlagzeug und Elektronik \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Dissociated Press für Sprechstimme, Ensemble und Zuspielung\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
