Basszikaden resulted from a project of sonic exchange carried out by Flora Könemann and Margarethe Maierhofer-Lischka. Sharing thoughts, images and sounds across the isolation through the pandemic, the project is a search for establishing togetherness across distance, looking for the poetics in small everyday observations.
The album resulted from a live session played at Radio Helsinki in summer 2021 which got subsequently released as a CD. Field recordings, instruments (sho, double bass, recorders) and voice is used to weave dense textures that invite for a deep listening.
