The album Clean & Distorted by Klaus Haidl offers a culturalhistorical view through a chronological selection of works that reflect on the materials, art and politics of different eras. The compositions not only challenge listening perception, but also symbolize the changing nature of musical expression – what is considered distorted in one era becomes clean sound in the next. Each composition on the album offers a unique perspective on the interplay between musical eras and the aesthetic changes associated with them. With Clean & Distorted, Klaus Haidl invites listeners on an exciting sonic journey that is as much about capturing the essence of historical music as it is about exploring the future of sound.
