Dictaphone - Nacht EP (2004)

"Peaks" and "Warszawa w nocy" are based around recordings made in a rehearsal room somewhere in Berlin with some microphones hanging from the low ceiling: Roger Döring (saxophone & clarinet on the Dictaphone album), Stephan Wöhrmann (drums) & Piotr Rybkowski (bass) wanted to forrm a band, but somehow got stuck along the way. When Oliver Doerell heard those recordings, he immediately started to work on them. And finished them. "Peaks" is more than a hommage. Clearly inspired by the theme of a well known TV-series, it takes that certain haunting groove and transforms it into the most perfect base for Döring's saxophone. "Warszawa w nocy" sounds like a million things happening at the same time, but in the end, all there is is noise, hiss, a pleasently disturbing groove and the saxophone.
The B-Side features two classic Dictaphone tracks, made by Doerell and Döring. Truly cinematic.
