Vince Clarke and Martyn Ware create special 3D Soundclash installation

Vince Clarke and Martyn Ware have created a special installation for the forthcoming 3D Soundclash event at London's Royal Albert Hall on February 18th between 8pm and midnight. The event comes courtesy of the Red Bull Music Academy. Clarke already worked with synthpop producer Martyn Ware (of Heaven 17) in 1999 as "The Clarke & Ware Experiment" and released the album "Pretentious". The duo collaborated again in 2001 for the album "Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle", which was created with "3D music technology" specifically designed for listening in headphones.

The software used, 3D Audioscape, allows performers to manipulate sound in three dimensions. 3D Audioscape was developed by Martyn Ware’s company Future Of Sound alongside Vince Clarke and you can literally control sound in all kinds of three-dimensional parameters. From left to right, front to back, and over and under.

In more Vince Clarke news, Nitzer Ebb have released a new compilation, "In Order", this week which sees all their b-sides, remixes and rarities available digitally for the first time, including Vince Clarke's Anonymous remix of "Ascend" from 1992. The release is available now right here on iTunes.
