"All The Birds Were Anarchists has been created over a period of two years. It was not a continuous flow of work, as all activities of Barbara Morgenstern, Paul Wirkus and Stefan Schneider are simply too extensive (Barbara Morgenstern/Robert Lippok; Wirkus Trzaska Frisch Trio; To Rococo Rot/Mapstation), but influenced this record as well. In the summer of 2005, the first recordings were made at a holiday home in Gardna Wielka, which is located in the middle of a national park close to the Baltic Sea in Poland. The open windows served as a welcome connection to the sounds of the ambience. Wind, frogs, birds, the neighbors' dogs, their own dog, insects were in subtle interaction with the band's laptops or acoustic instruments. Everybody just played without too many restrictions or agreements. One could be awake or tired, fast or slow, out of sync... mainly listening to the other person, sometimes becoming absorbed. Nature has not been experienced as a silent and calm place of retreat, but as a motivating space, which is connected to technology anyway -- regardless of its function as a wildlife reservation."
