SEKTION – Druck (Limited Vinyl) - LP

Limited Edition of 250 copies, regular Black Vinyl

SEKTION’s debut full-length DRUCK marks the first official collaboration between AtomTM & Siegmar Fricke, a connection rooted in 1992.  Released by Geometrik Records, the label of industrial legend Esplendor Geométrico, in collaboration with Munster Records.
Across 13 interconnected tracks, DRUCK builds a stereo-enlarged environment shaped by metallic textures, rhythmic granulations and slow-moving structural shifts. Drawn from the compositional frameworks VOKOSTASIS, DIGITRAKTION, LEERZEICHEN, and UNWUCHT, the album unfolds as a continuum of mechano-sonic morphing.

Fragments of frequency-altered voices emerge like damaged transmissions, woven into grainsliced rhythms, microsound detail, and layers of rusty tape noise and electro-acoustic particles. Tension and friction gradually push the material toward fragmentation without collapse.  A formidable and immersive act of sonic engineering.

German musician AtomTM is one of the most imaginative and prolific talents in the global electronic music scene of recent decades. Since 1988, he has released music on cult labels such as Raster-Noton, Sähkö Recordings, KK Records, Metropolis, Contempo, Mille Plateaux, Rough Trade, Rephlex Records, FAX +49-69/450464, and his own label, Rather Interesting, under countless aliases. As a producer, remixer, and collaborator, he has worked with and for musicians such as Ryuichi Sakamoto, Haruomi Hosono, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Depeche Mode, Towa Tei, Merzbow, Bill Laswell, and Esplendor Geométrico, just to name a few.

AtomTM has developed an innovative, unconventional, and highly personal musical vision, interpreting a wide variety of genres and styles in his own unique way, including experimental music, techno, acid, EBM, electrolatino, ambient, and industrial music, among others.
Siegmar Fricke is a German artist who began experimenting with shortwave radio and acoustic noise in the field between musique concrète and post-industrial music around 1981. He became a very active participant in the worldwide cassette culture movement. He ran his own label, Bestattungsinstitut, and published numerous releases ranging from experimental music and EBM to electro and ambient, distributed across tape labels worldwide from 1985 to 1993. Since 2001, Fricke has operated primarily under the alias Pharmakustik. His collaborations include notable work with legends of electronic and industrial music such as Conrad Schnitzler and Maurizio Bianchi. Fricke's extensive discography is distributed worldwide on vinyl, CD, cassette, and digital formats.
