More Info

"To show an aeroplane in motion, one should not paint still lives" (*) Kryptische neue V des griechischen Projekts, das stndig den Namen ndert (nach NIXILX.NIJILX und HELICE PIED - als DR-83 auch auf Drone Records verewigt) - und damit wirkliches Neuland betritt, denn der Wiedererkennungswert anhand eines festen Band-/Projektnamens ist wohl der Grundkonsens aller Musikschaffenden. Diese 45rpm 12" enthlt 3 Stcke, die alle auf Aufnahmen von Flugzeugen (wahrscheinlich Innenrume) basieren. Dazu kommen absolut undefinierbare rumpelige Klnge und Sirr-Sounds, und diverse kryptische Zitate von MARCEL DUCHAMP(*), ANTONIN ARTAUD, JEAN COCTEAU, ARTHUR RIMBAUD und anderen auf dem Cover. Bestimmte Klnge auf den Stcken sind wiederum verbunden mit vorher erschienenden Tontrgern. Sokratis Martinopoulos produziert keine gewhnliche Musik, sondern akustische Rtsel.

"blanco estira nuestro (+), hermana Hlice is Socrates Martinis (1984, Athens, Greece) third pseudonymous project, following nixilx.nijilx and Hlice Pied. This installment, composed in 20067 using found sounds and objects, focuses on the sounds and sights of a distant aeroplane,
the vanishing drone of which Martinis finds to be particularly beautiful. The subject of planes was first explored in Aputi (released by Authorised Version, 2005), the final section of which makes a return appearance here in the .oeur diptych. This piece also reuses a guitar sound from E.2, which originally appeared on the debut nixilx.nijilx CDR published by absurd in 2004. Cylindre. also revisits past recordings, borrowing a bell sound from Conduit no. 2 (Drone Records, 2006). Martinis is also
a member of silkworms cannot be confiscated until theyve become perfect cocoons with absurds Nicolas Malevitsis. First edition of 200 copies. Co-published with absurd." [label info]
