Tied & Tickled Trio - Ea1 Ea2 Rmx (2000)

The German ensemble Tied + Tickled Trio from Weilheim is a prominent figure in the contemporary musical avant-garde, effectively dissolving the boundaries between jazz, electronica, and post-rock. The group merges sophisticated digital editing with free collective improvisation, utilizing the tenor saxophone to provide a distinctive edge to their layered soundscapes. Comprising six core members, the collective is integrally linked to the influential local DIY scene alongside projects like The Notwist. The release of a remix compilation following their 1999 album "ea1 ea2" serves as a logical extension of their aesthetic, highlighting the parallel between electronic re-composition and jazz improvisation through the deconstruction of complex musical textures.
