DRANK – Breath in Definition

TROST | TR254 | CD / LP | 2025
guest on GITTA: Lukas Koenig
guest on BREATH IN DEFINITION: Anja Plaschg (Soap&Skin)

Ingrid Schmoliner and Alex Kranabetter are pillars of the improvised and experimental music scenes in Austria stretching back more than a decade. Although the former is known primarily as a pianist and vocalist and the latter as a trumpeter, they both possess seriously expansive sonic palettes. Schmolinger works rigorously with sound direction to generate vibrant psychoacoustic and spatialized effects, while Kranabetter routinely deploys electronics to radically transform and expand his sound worlds in solo and collaborative settings.
Perhaps no single endeavor captures the full splendor of their aesthetic tendencies like their duo drank, which will release its stellar debut recording Breath in Definition on Trost in April 2025.
