Monophobie Der Pelikane

Monophobie Der Pelikane was released in 1991 on the Edition El C. label, serving as a significant collaboration between sound artist Helmut Lemke and musician Andreas Müller. Emerging from the experimental and noise music scenes of the early nineties, the project reflects the period's growing interest in unconventional soundscapes and the intersection of electroacoustic composition with industrial aesthetics.

The album is noted for its textured, minimalist approach to sound design, characteristic of Lemke's wider body of work which often explores the limitations and possibilities of environmental recordings. By blending abstract sonic manipulations with a structured conceptual framework, the artists aimed to evoke a sense of unease and isolation, as hinted by the title. Upon its release, it found a niche audience within European avant-garde circles, valued for its rigorous adherence to a specific, disciplined atmospheric vision.
