More Info

"An end and a new beginning. Kommuniqué Zéro is the debut outing of new Black To Comm related entity Mouchoir Ètanche. And it is the final release in Dekorder's 10-Year Anniversary hybrid-vinyl series (a mere seven years too late). Combining real and fake acoustic instrumentation, sampling, field recordings, and excessive yet inaudible post production this is a powerful statement of intent. Influences are ranging from (French) classical and opera to the anecdotical compositions of Luc Ferrari, Chinese opera, sacred music, collage, and free improvisation. Marc Richter records as Black To Comm for Thrill Jockey, Type, and Dekorder and as Jemh Circs for his own Cellule 75 imprint. He also produced soundtracks and acousmatic multichannel installations for institutions such as INA GRM Paris, ZKM Karlsruhe, and Kunstverein Hamburg. The Dekorder 10-Year Anniversary hybrid-vinyl series so far included LPs by Pye Corner Audio, Excepter, Experimental Audio Research, Vindicatrix, Kemiallysät Ystävät, Ensemble Economique, Alien Radio, Black To Comm, and Le Révélateur. Music and artwork by Marc Richter. Richard Youngs: counting. Mastering by Rashad Becker Hybrid-vinyl: picture-disc on one side (no music), black vinyl on the other (music); edition of 165."
