Sichten refers both to opinions as well as the examination of material. In loose sequence, Raster invites friends and colleagues, but especially music lovers to share their opinions on music or to look through their collected materials in order to present music that tends to be out of the focus of current media channels. As a label for electronic music Raster's focus is on examining exactly this genre. But in the context of the series, the label is looking for more hidden, unknown, perhaps forgotten music. Raster wants to present the yet-undiscovered, and also offer a platform for other cultural environments with different musical approaches. Each issue will be supervised and compiled by a curator. An introductory text shall explain the artistic approach of the respective curator. In this sense, the format of a double LP can only provide a first insight and to invite to more in-depth research. For the first issue of the series, Sichten 1, Raster asked Frank Bretschneider to compile his own, very personal selection of current electronic music. His choice fell on six artists, whose different styles meander between accessible music on the one hand and very abstract compositions on the other hand. Features: Zavoloka, Mimicof, Benjamin Brunn, Retina.it, Mads E. Nielsen, and Pierce Warnecke.
