2013 release. Saitensack is the first-ever release for Darmstadt-based composer Hans Essel who has been active in improvised music and Grundlagenmusik (foundational music) for more than 20 years. The album showcases his project Saitensack (string-bag) in which he develops new ways of playing the violin and viola. Comparisons could be drawn to other experimental violinists like Tony Conrad and Takehisa Kosugi but Hans Essel uses a far more stripped-down approach: The instruments are neither modified nor amplified. Strings are not pressed by fingers but rather damped. Only through bowing, they are excited to complex free vibrations, sometimes harsh and noisy, at other times reminiscent of uilleann pipes with cracking and breaking like in yodeling. Saitensack focuses on the origin of tones out of the noise, zooming into the very character of string instruments. Saitensack is pure violin - the essence of violin playing. Side A features an overtone-rich performance from 1994. Side B has a harsher 1999 recording: 24 minutes of pure violin noise bliss. Edition of 500. Includes printed inner sleeve featuring a Saitensack discussion transcript.
Tracks:
1.1 December 10, 1994 at Festival Experimentelle Musik, Munich
2.1 November 26, 1999 at Kunstfabrik, Arheilgen

Buy if you like shredded meat I guess
Flavor Name: Spicy, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I was so excited to try these “slices” of beef because I grew up eating deer biltong made from deers my uncles would go hunt. Some of the best snacks I ever had, absolutely delicious. So when I decided to see if any biltong was actually sold around here I was surprised and pleased this was available. Unlike beef jerky which uses lots of sugar for some reason I was hoping this would have more meaty flavor but it doesn’t really. Although that might be due to the fact that I did get “slices” of meat, no what I got was basically shredded and powdered. It’s salty, but has absolutely no spice whatsoever and is just not good at all.

Very greasy biltong and not spicy at all
Flavor Name: Spicy, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1), Flavor Name: Spicy, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The flavor is ok but the spice is almost nonexistent. It’s super greasy/oily, with big pieces of fat, so if you’re expecting a nice lean, dry, and spicy biltong, this is not the right one to try. I took the photo to try and capture the shiny, wet, translucent appearance of this biltong but it’s hard to see. Maybe it’s just personal preference but I’m used to biltong being dry and opaque with nearly zero fat chunks and not leaving a film of oil on my hands after eating it.

Most like South African Biltong
Flavor Name: Spicy, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Firstly, this is NOT JERKY!! So please stop comparing it to that disgusting, over-processed, artificially flavored stuff. Nothing can compare to good biltong. It is seasoned and air dried meat that is the most amazing high protein snack available. Jerky doesn't deserve to be in the same room as biltong, let alone compared to it.
I am a South African recently relocated to the USA and have been trying various Biltong brands available. This is by far the best. I prefer the spicy to the original, but that it a personal preference, the original is also very good, but could do with a bit more flavor. The dry wors is also good, but I am a big biltong eater and always have been. For those of you who don't know, dry wors is a thin sausage (sausage = wors), that has been air dried. It is not a brat type sausage that most Americans are familiar with, it is more a kielbasa or Argentinian style sausage (but not quite).
Thank you, being able to have this, has prevented me from going crazy some days. Now I just need to try your boerewors!

LOVE THEM!!
Size: Small, Color: (001) Black / Black / Castlerock
LOVE! These socks are so comfortable! I wear a 5 in women's and a 3 in big kid shoes. The small fit me perfectly. I see where some say they run small but I can't say that was an issue for me. They are "snug" but thats what you want with a no show sock. I feel they have support vs the ones i used to buy at Walmart. They are very soft! I am actually buying more today and throwing my other ones in the trash!

So will not write down your foot
Size: Medium, Color: (001) Black / Black / Castlerock
I love these socks. They have a little bit of gel on the top of the heel for support in your tennis shoes and so your socks don’t write down. Very good quality.
