The piece “188” describes a moment of transition.
With every car that passes by, a new impression is created with a different sound and a new feeling. This gentle, melancholic mix combines the sounds of Federal Highway 188, a road that can lead to many new beginnings and open ends. The main instruments are classical; combined with recordings of sounds such as passing cars, including those with trailers, motorcycles, and trucks, as well as the sounds of nature
—an associative twenty-minute acoustic journey on Federal Highway 188.
For the live performance, Marius D. Kettler uses coils through which he converts electromagnetic
waves into audible sounds. These sounds are generated by ordinary everyday objects such as a quartz clock or an electric toothbrush.
Dolores Flores sings her lyrics in English and German.
The vocals are processed live with a Roland RE 301 Chorus Echo. The sound and echo of the vocals describe a poetic moment of movement and change, departure, arrival, and destination.
The composition is by Marius D. Kettler. Lyrics and vocals by Dolores Flores.
