"GAMUT INC’s work with the computer-controlled organ actually began in 2009 with a commission from ON – Neue Musik Köln for the Kunst-Station Sankt Peter - at a time when only few congregations were ready to open their instruments to this kind of work. When the duo of Marion Wörle and Maciej Śledziecki founded the ensemble officially in 2013 as an interdisciplinary project, they first developed their own music machines with instrument builder Gerhard Kern, returning to the organ in 2018 when more churches and venues had opened their doors … and GAMUT INC carried their practice across Europe and beyond, developing AGGREGATE (first a concert series and then an annual festival) into a platform dedicated to organ music of the 21st century.
Sharpening a critique of mechanisation, digitality, and the human in between, the project is conceived around the construction of pre-modern instruments and the control of these instruments by contemporary technologies, resulting in an aesthetic that bridges the very old and the very new. [...]
GAMUT INC’s latest album “Music For Air” was composed and recorded during a two-week residency in Toulouse on the wind-dynamic organ "L'Explorateur", with individually computer-controlled wind pressure per pipe. The seven pieces move between harmony and noise, conjuring a euphorically intoxicating maelstrom of overlapping, accelerating sound, exploring again new possibilities of the computer-controlled pipe organ - from hypervirtuoso excess to nuanced automation and rhythms beyond the fixed grid. Sensual and ecstatic.
