MORCEAUX_DE_MACHINES || liberum arbitrium
few acts are as relentlessly bombastic as MORCEAUX_DE_MACHINES, érick
dorion & aimé dontigny's composite noise juggernaut from hell. but it may
just be that nobody understands the profound tenderness of their
compositions. to the discerning listener, these expert streams of
cut-&-paste madness form a fantastic environment ripe for the most delicate
discoveries. noise? who hears noise? only if you're not paying attention!
of course, this new CD most definitely kicks ass from start to finish. what
else to expect from the folks who brought you the frantic _cosmothérapie_?
in _liberum arbitrium_ they set up a cosmic death match between heaven &
hell & it's not likely to be taken for a pastoral... 8 seriously twisted
improvisations that push computer music to its limits! says the all-music
guide, it's "a serious contender to best noise album of 2002." we didn't
make that up. you know you've been waiting for it. well, here it is.
(completists take note: érick & aimé wanted to keep their CD punchy & to
the point, so they left a few songs out from the initial recording
sessions. two of these outtakes were already featured on the
_cosmothérapie_ release, but as a gift to their fans, & for the sake of
completeness, the duo is offering 2 more tracks not found on the CD through
our special _liberum arbitrium_ page. so if for some reason you're not
happy with the choice of tracks, feel free to burn yourself a customised
version with the songs you like best!)

OEUF KORRECKT || podweek
OEUF KORRECKT's music has been a part of no type since the beginning of its
history, from _leonard nimoy_ to _shibuya without end_. it's only natural
that one of our first CDs would find him behind the wheel. the definitive
oeuf korreckt collection, _podweek_ is quite simply the treat all of his
fans would have been waiting for if they even knew it existed: 14
unreleased tracks from frédérick blouin's secret vault, plus an alternate
version of 'osaka commtech'. of course, you might be asking yourself: "why
release these old tracks?" listening to the album gives the reason why; the
question becomes why frédérick hasn't released them before! a good number
of tracks off this new CD rank amongst my personal favourites of his. oeuf
korreckt has perfected the 'intelligent' video game sound, in a style that
is patently his. but true to his techno roots (see SURFING SECRETS for a
case in point), he doesn't hesitate to go on an all-out gabber tip when
needed. yet, some of the melodies are so catchy that you will want to hum
them all day only to be turned off by the sheer complexity of some of the
arrangements. _podweek_ is the new sound of joy!

CAMP || socialiste
a long threatened release, the new _camp socialiste_ is now available for
your perusal & reconstruction. if it seems complicated at first, read
again. the premise is simple, but the result is not. an exercise in
interlocking asynchronous loops based upon samples from no type all- stars,
mixed up with a fair amount of chance operations, the result is quite
recognizably CAMPesque, if somewhat more jagged than normal. but that might
only be temporary, because the composition is open & someone might just
find a smoother way to perform it. of course, another might find that it
makes too much sense, & infuse some madness to the proceedings. we have no
idea how it will end, do you?

OCTOPUS INC || subcon sound museum
it is one patent injustice that we still have to introduce OCTOPUS INC
despite two CDs of luminous beauty released on kracfive, the label he has
founded with his friend colongib. noah sasso might be an enigma to some
simply because he is nearly impossible to genre-peg. not only does he never
do the same thing twice, what he does never sounds like anything you've
heard elsewhere to begin with. vague reference points to weird electronic
acts from köln or california do not even begin to describe the magic.
_subcon sound museum_, his first no type release, exemplifies this. five
tracks of lush collages, structures of texture that are full of detail &
bristling with life. don't wait; revel!
