Alva Noto (Carsten Nicolai) began his ongoing exploration of sampling, degradation and recontextualisation with the »Xerrox« series in 2007. Over the years, the project has evolved into one of the most distinctive bodies of work in contemporary electronic music, situated between minimalism, experimental sound art and digital abstraction.

Across five albums, »Xerrox Vol.1« (2007), »Xerrox Vol.2« (2009), »Xerrox Vol.3« (2015), »Xerrox Vol.4« (2020), and »Xerrox Vol.5« (2024), Carsten Nicolai's method evolves from sample-based work toward original composition as he deconstructs and reassembles source material into precise, sculpted sound worlds that are at once minimal and emotive.

This 2026 box set edition includes all volumes.
