Cipher Productions:

"Wash Your Brains' ‘1977 – 1987’ is a collection of the project’s earliest 2 or 4 track cassette recordings made with membranes removed from public telephones, cheapest lo-fi pickups mounted on window glass, elementary school flutes, rental violins, old office chairs, mechanically manipulated speakers, broken turntables and cassette recorders or simple tone oscillators.

De-/composed through rudimentary cut-up techniques and with an archaic but exploratory sense of new music, this bruit-collection documents Rudolf Eb.er’s early and unique approach to sound art. Pre-Schimpfluch cassette recordings found in the long lost Swiss archives. Collected, selected and compiled by Rudolf Eb.er at Om Kult Osaka, Japan, 2022."
