In his energy-driven music and concerts, Switzerland based artist Bit-Tuner oscillates between Bass Music, Electronica and Techno, while he pulls his tracks together to become a gloomy, but euphoric bass monster.

CUT OUT WAS RECORDED ON THE ROCKING DESK, SIMON BERZ’ EXTENDED DRUM SET THAT INCLUDES PIEZO MICROPHONES, LOUDSPEAKERS AND EFFECTS. BERZ PLAYS HIS INSTRUMENT WITH AN ARRAY OF MODIFIED DRUM STICKS TO EVOKE ELECTROACOUSTIC SOUNDS, EFFECT PATTERNS AND A BROAD VARIETY OF FEEDBACKS.
The amplification allows close-up views of the sounding surfaces and structures, while the microphones do not only pick up the sounds played, but also the environment.The Rocking Desk embraces several sound spheres: traditional drum sounds, microscopic details and tonal feedbacks.The 50 loops included reveal a small fragment of the Rocking Desk’s sonic dimensions.
The cover images were created by Simon Berz by drumming paint on to the paper while his loops were performed on three turntables.
