SPRAWL is the project of drummer Michael Wertmüller (16-17, Alboth!) who had the idea of bringing together the musicians he appreciates most and has worked with in various contexts for a recording project in Thun, Switzerland. He invited Peter Brötzmann (Die Like a Dog, Last Exit) and William Parker (Cecil Taylor group), two outstanding protagonists of improvised music. He also invited guitarist Stephan Wittwer (Cowwf-Quintett, Polyphonie Zürich) and sound-artist Alex Buess (God, 16-17, ICE).

The main idea was to create an album which incorporates the rough energy of "Machine Gun" based on improvisation, the electricity of 16-17`s "Gyatso" and the application of experimental recording techniques which give the album its own, very special feeling.

The result of this collaboration of five different musicians, various styles and influences is an impressive and intense piece of music - Free Jazz, composition and improvisation, dark new electronics and electro-acoustic soundscapes.
