RECueil
"Guibog is French, born in the 70s. He used to work as a sound engineer in France, and was involved in organising outdoor electronic music events, often playing cat-and-mouse with the police. Later, he left that life and moved to China, settling in Beijing. He works as a programmer at Douban, living with his wife and three children in the hutongs of Beijing.
Many years ago, I visited him at his house, where I discovered his robot collection. He had collected the circuit boards from discarded …

MP3 Deviations #6+7
Yasunao Tone creates music by means of disrupting MP3-files. Sound files that were corrupted in the MP3 generate error messages, which are then utilized to assign various lengths of samples automatically. Feeding also different play back speeds creates a sound which is always different – unpredictable and unknowable. The MP3 Deviation album contains pieces that are results of the collaborative research by a team of the New Aesthetics in Computer Music (NACM) and myself, led by Tony Myatt…

Tiromancy
New recordings and a couple of their unreleased tracks. Another Japanese CD from 1997 by this oblique improv collective. In some ways, just as traditional as a bunch of Sun Ra acolytes, in others more bent than actual acid casualties, Tiromancy splashes down swaddled in rainbow dots, early Playboy chic, laughing gas electronics, conflicting vapors, surround-seep ooze-adelia, and highly agile mental capabilities. Japanese import.
