Scherrer, Mario

Squares And Crossings (2lp)

Dee Dee's Picks presents Mario Scherrer's 'Squares And Crossings'! Originally released on Calypso Now in 1986, 'Squares And Crossings' was supposed to be part of a series called 'The Guild,' a collection of music written by Swiss music critics. Mario Scherrer was the only one responding to this invitation, thus making him the sole contributor for this project. These productions are coated in punk varnish, simultaneously blending elements of new wave, pop, musique concrète, improvisation, poetry and ambient, which would only make sense coming from the same city as the home of the Cabaret Voltaire, the birthplace of the Dada movement. This album is not only an artistic diary, but also has an environmental affinity with this snapshot of Swiss history. The album is released on double vinyl with obi and rare photos and liner notes featuring exclusive interviews with Scherrer himself and Hotcha from Calypso Now.
