about

compiled from recordings made between 1995 to 2011, 'collection of hair' is a sequel to 'a collection of curses ' (2006) and gathers hard to find tracks, compilation contributions, reworkings, live recordings as well as unreleased pieces by dave phillips: a mutinous punk, aktionist and activist, a member of schimpfluch-gruppe and ohne, the man behind dead peni and a mingler and mangler in and of numerous other projects.

32 tracks/150 minutes of sound, including an unreleased recording of 'abolishing religion', a unique tel aviv performance, a radio piece curated by 23five, an edit of the schimpfluch-commune berlin wild boar feeding grounds piece and lots more, "collection of hair" is all about psychoactive sonics, minutiae micro-compositional rackets juxtaposed with flourishing audio-pastures, psycho-acoustic shock treatments and an almost scientific approach to musique concrète - a wide spectrum of recordings that illustrates the convulsive and always channelling body of work from the blackened man in black.
