Peripherie maps a quieter edge of Vienna electronics on debut cassette

The trio places electronics beside contrabass clarinet, violin and plucked strings in a deliberately small-scale first album.

Vienna trio Peripherie has released its self-titled debut, a cassette and digital album placing electronics inside a spare chamber setup. Klaus Tschabitzer, Haldis Scheicher and Daniel Lercher use contrabass clarinet, violin, banjo, guitar and processing without a conventional band hierarchy.

The artist-controlled Bandcamp establishes the release and credits. A mica interview explains how the group developed arrangements and original pieces around the limitations of the trio.

The work belongs to Vienna's electronic ecosystem because amplification and processing act as compositional voices, not decoration. The cassette also places it in the city's artist-edition economy.
