Sound Of A Handshake

[07/06] The Sound of a Handshake, a soft, friendly noise. A handshake comes at the end of deals of those who part as friends. Shake your hands and say yeah, so to speak. A gesture of familiarity.

The Sound of a Handshake is Morr Music's little, curious sister. It will care for little, curious sound-carriers in the future. Care for the projects - not only from Morr Music - done on the side, in-between and in addition to others. Such as Benni Hemm Hemm, for instance, whose euphoric debut-album is the second release of The Sound of a Handshake, after its release by a small label in Iceland, Benni's home, in 2005. There is further Bernhard Fleischmann's "Melancholie", an one-hour lasting track, that was written on the occasion of an exhibition of the same name in the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin.

If Morr Music would not be everything but duty, one could name The Sound of a Handshake - equally as the go-getting seven-inch-series A Number of Small Things - a free-section. In the future there will be released projects from friends and family members, Morr Music artists, for whom a release out of the operative every-day-life will be useful. Such as licenses of sound-carriers that have been released in another corner of the world already (as Benni Hemm Hemm's debut album). Such as re-releases of the appreciated and the legendary. Or such as ideas and intuitions of well-known Morr-artists, a live-album of Masha Qrella perhaps, just to name one of the occurring ideas.

That makes curious, doesn't it? The Sound of a Handshake is worth keeping your ears wide open. I give you my hand on that.
