| michael gendreau and francisco lopez: split lp
francisco lopez is perhaps best known for his dynamic studio and live performances that sway between crushing silence and dynamic, shifting volume swells. over the course of 25 years, lopez has developed and honed a refined audio lexicon. michael gendreau entered the experimental sound community in the early 1980s with his project crawling with tarts. as a solo artist, gendreau caught everyone’s attention with the 2002 release of his cd 55 pas de la ligne, composed of recordings based on old turntables and one-of-a-kind lps.
for this lp, gendreau, a trained acoustician, used extremely refined microphones -- designed for acoustic and vibrational research -- to record sounds such as turntable motor hum, belts, and run out grooves on records more than 70 years old. his side is an incredible journey through a forest of alternately prickly and soothing sounds. lopez used similar source material for his side, creating a refined oceanic wall of sound constructed from crackle, hum, and scratches.
this lp is in a numbered edition of 500 copies and signed by both artists. |
