| Description | : MEGO 059, 2002; EINE ART SUPERGROUP FRANZÖSISCHER EXPERIMENTALISTEN !!! , FIVE LEADING LIGHTS OF THE FRENCH IMPROVISED, ELECTRONIC, ELECTROCOUSTIC SCENE COMBINE ELECTRONIC TAPE, ANALOGUE SYNTHS AND A UNITED LOVE FOR STRANGE SONORITIES FOR THIS SPECIAL VINYL ONLY RELEASE. UNFOLDING AS A DYNAMIC COCKTAIL OF MAGNETIC BUBBLES, CREAKING SNAPSHOTS, ANALOGUE POPS AND GHOSTLY VOICES, THIS IS AN EXCITING DISPLAY OF CONCRETE IMPROVISATION. THE FACT THAT THIS WAS RECORDED AND MIXED LIVE IS AN IMPRESSIVE ATTRIBUTE. ONE CAN SENSE A TIP OF THE HAT TO THE CLASSIC LABOUR INTENSIVE CONCRETE COMPOSITIONS OF THE
FRENCH SCHOOL (EARLY TO MID 'CHUNK FLUNG' PERIOD HENRY, THE 'WILD WOOSH' OF EARLY FERRARI ETC). GIVEN THAT THIS HAS SPRUNG FROM THE BLANK SLATE OF OPEN IMPROVISATION - RESTING ON THE DEXTERITY, PATIENCE, AND THE LISTENING ABILITY PROVIDED BY THE PARTICIPANTS SEES THE RESULTS AS ALL THE MORE INSPIRED. BOTH SIDES OF THIS RELEASE PROVIDE AN ENORMOUS RANGE OF SOUNDS: INTERLOCKING, OVERLAPPING, STRETCHING, SNAPPING, BENDING, MORPHING AND PANNING, ALONG WITH VAST DYNAMICS: CALM AND RESTRAINED THROUGH TO HYPERACTIVE AND FIERCE, HELL ONE EVEN DETECTS THE DOWNRIGHT STRANGE! THE ONLY REQUEST OF THE AUDIENCE IS TO LISTEN. ONCE LOCKED IN, SIT BACK AND ABSORB THIS REWARDING COLLECTION OF STARTLING SONIC'S.
