-// new release:
-> JIM O`ROURKE: MEGO 050_I´m Happy, And I´m Singing, And a 1,2,3,4 (CD)
The novelty is over - it's time to get to work.
Indeed Mr O'Rourke (look under O' in the Penguin guide to post populist
art-wank) has done just this to produce a solo computer album.
Although traits
of O'Rourke-ien past can be found here, some definite bright new angles also
shine throughout the 3 (dare we say it) elegant tracks featured here.
Equal parts - schizoid pop, cracked minimalism, concrete drama and
melancholic
contemplation. It strikes us as a highly personal release.
Imagine the powerbook as a springboard to explore oneself inside... not a
machine for accentuating the inhuman, but a machine for embracing, and giving
voice to the more delicate elements of the inner human. Thought it
couldn't be
done? Think again. It has, and has been blessed with a nifty title to boot!
Given the nature of this warm beast, it seems likely to appeal across the
board - electronic nuts, indie rock kids and yes, even the good folk of the
established experimental world may take pleasure in the delicate nuances of
Jim's hardrive. Avoiding cliches seems like pretty tough business to most
artists out there, not to our boy Jim who has produced a disc worthy of many
repeated listens - hat's off to him for that.
File under 'handsome'
LP-version MEGO 050v will be available in 01/02.
