| december 2008 release ; third outing by this australian electro-acoustic improv duo, after the pair’s 2003 synaesthesia-label debut (anyone heard from mark recently ? anyone ?) “coagulate” & 2006’s “flux compendium” (also emego) ...
this is high-aktion, bleep-heavy music ; on par with thom lehn & markus schmickler’s duo work (there’s a similar focus on hemming the analogue/digital synthesis dichotomy) yet somehow even more active ... sure, there’s the occasion electrical force-field and/or drone element, but the music rarely stays in one place for more than a second, preferring the kind of pacing that has even the most adhd-addled listener struggling to keep up ...
awesome, really, and highly recommended !!! |

| demego 006 anthony pateras & robin fox: end of daze cd release date: 28.12.2008 total time: 35:20
robin fox: computer, controllers, arp 2500, programming anthony pateras: computer, doepfer a-100, voice, revox b-77
all tracks recorded at chinatown studios, brunswick. mixed and mastered at wilkinsound, west footscray, melbourne, australia, 2008. arp 2500 materials in "rupture" recorded at worm, rotterdam design by clare cooper
the first cabs off the editions mego rank in 2006, pateras and fox return with their third shredding album of antipodean-blasted bliss that will get even the darkest of doomlords crawling out of their abyss of hatred, and dancing like lunatics.
end of daze is a bulletproof testament to the duo’s eight year history in the trenches of live electro-acoustic music - their messy, over-the top contact-miked beginnings now formed into a powerful and futuristic meta-language borrowing from the early electronic masters, bizarre sound poetry, vintage synth festishism, the eternal patch tweak and good old fashioned melbourne experimentalist brutality, fuelled by a poisonous love affair with sonic invention.
a combination of materials forged live on stage alongside carefully considered studio mayhem, the audio contained on this disc is their finest vein-popping blend of chaos and order to date. recorded beautifully by longtime engineer james “wilkinsound” wilkinson in melbourne, combined with some sessions from worm in rotterdam, end of daze promises a sonic range as wide as its genesis, complete with angry boy artwork courtesy of clare cooper.
limited to 500 copies. |
