Hammerschlag -- created by FM Einheit (member of Einstürzende Neubauten, early 1980s to mid-1990s), with Andreas Ammer -- features many percussive industrial elements and "machine music" (chains, scraping, coiled springs, objects), noise, experimental electronics, and provocative musical compositions familiar to the ears of Neubauten fans. An oratorio with prelude and two noise interludes, based on Russian futurist Aleksej Kapitonovič Gastev, the "bard of the machine age". FM Einheit is an industrial and electronic musician and actor, primarily known for his percussion work with Einstürzende Neubauten. He has also collaborated with musicians such as: Diamanda Galás, Eraldo Bernocchi, Mona Mur, KMFDM, Goethes Erben, and many more. He was also involved in the projects Stein and Gry. Andreas Ammer has been creating works with FM Einheit since the early 1990's. "Just a moment longer, and through the confused chaos of these days, the legendary realization of the future roar of events is triumphant" --A.K. Gastev (A Bundle of Orders). Hammerschlag was premiered in 2019 at the Diaghilev Festival in Perm as a live concert with Teodor Currentzis, the chief conductor of the SWR Symphony Orchestra, as Aleksej Kapitonovič Gastev. The concert served as the basis for a German-Russian radio play version.
