In 2010, German sound experimentalist Florian Hecker and multidisciplinary artist Mark Leckey came together for the first time, presenting their work at a two-day performance event at the Tate Modern. For their collaboration, entitled “Hecker Leckey Sound Voice Chimera”, and now available on vinyl for the first time – Hecker decomposed, modulated, and re-synthesized the vocal track from Leckey’s 2010 performance piece “GreenScreenRefrigeratorAction”, as well as his own “3 Channel Chronics” installation from that same year. The resulting work is a multivalent hybrid in which heavily distorted fragments of Leckey’s narrative are interspersed with Hecker’s synthetic textures and fidgety tonal patterns.
