The english term murmur can be translated into german as murmeln, which also means marbles.
The little glass ball running around the rim of my snare drum in this piece hides the actual changes
in the music. Like a persons murmur those are hard to follow exactly, with the constant sound of
rotation always in the foreground. It made perfect sense to me to release this piece on a vinyl record,
with the turntable itself refering to the idea of rotation.
