THE REVIEW
Enigmatic cover. Personally, I see a veil of pessimism. Civilization, we destined to be born, grow under the maternal gaze of the capitalist industry. We celebrate a Santa Claus who, like the genie of the lamp, jumps out of a can of Coca Cola.
Mika Vaino was a cell of Panasonic. Franck Vigroux in his performances loves to dabble with a somewhat unorthodox noise use of strings with industrial debris. Their partnership is a splendid digital sculpture in perpetual motion between a near future and a recent industrial past. Two sensibilities that merge in a perfect glitch inlay sculpted by Vaino, arranging fragments of spurious techno and electric simulations of futuristic landscapes that in Vigroux's knobs change into an impactful ambient noise.
Fluctuations of synthetic calm and spatial rapes of Vigroux's strings, the ecstatic noise movement "Parabole" reminds me of the early cries of Main. Soundscapes for alien wrecks lost in the void of space, ignited by abstract noise discharges, shaken by techno beat clones of experimental 3D industrial. "Le Crane Tamburine", funky bass and futuristic visions "20 Jazz Funk Greats", the perfect soundtrack of a strip club run by Philip K. Dick.
Great work. Regarding the cover and if it had an ecological interpretation key? Meh! It probably doesn't want to communicate anything at all.
