Michael Vorfeld - percussion
Christian Wolfarth - percussion

"...Vorfeld and Wolfarth have effectively left the drummer's standard orbit and have entered by solely acoustic means the expansive sound sphere opened up trough the varies timbres, layered textures and harmonic richness of electronic music. On "Snake's Eye" both men apparently play just percussion, but the outcome is comparably strung-out, taut and twitchy. Regular rhythmic figures have largely - not entirely - been displaced by pulsation at the molecular level, generated by various kinds of rubbing and bowing or by constructive interference between the improvisors..."
