Released by the esteemed experimental label Black Truffle, Audio Works is a revelatory collection that brings together previously unheard tapes and obscure recordings from Israeli artist Uri Katzenstein. Drawing comparisons to Laurie Anderson, Ghédalia Tazartès, and Scritti Politti, Katzenstein's sound is a singular blend of DIY art pop, sound poetry, and electronic experimentation — built from synths, percussion, noise elements, and his own multi-tracked vocal performances delivered across multiple languages, including English, German, French, and Hebrew.
What makes Audio Works such a compelling listen is its raw, almost austere energy — arrangements that feel both deeply personal and bracingly unconventional, rooted in the outsider artform Katzenstein has cultivated on his own terms. Presented as a deluxe 2LP gatefold with extensive liner notes and a track info insert, this is a richly documented introduction to an artist whose work feels genuinely unlike anything else — a head-spinning journey through skewed, polyglot sonic worlds that rewards close listening.
