Nonclassical:

"Sound artist and composer Claudia Molitor's new 13-track solo album Have you ever brings together influences ranging from techno and jazz to Ivor Cutler and Nico, for which she has recorded her own field recordings as well as playing a variety of instruments and singing. Features poetry by Graham Mackenzie and Brian Patten alongside Molitor's own text in both English and German.

“Each little song is like a world in itself … I thought it was really fun making these short little ideas, and to try and encapsulate something in just three or four minutes.”

Finding a freedom in creating for herself rather than for a brief or commission, Molitor began creating songs and miniatures in early 2020. Her process began with a simple element – ​​a field recording, some words, a fragment of melody – which would then go through an organic transformation of collage and manipulation before arriving at the resulting track.
