The new Sistol cd on Phthalo is definitely more like the Vladislav
Delay 12" on Max Ernst & Freunde (i.e. on the abstract percussive
techno side) but dont take that as a bad thing. On the contrary, the
intricacy of the drum programming on the Sistol truely sets it
apart from any other minimal techno-esque release in recent
memory.
On the other hand, the new Vladislav Delay cd on Mille Plateaux,
called Entain, is very much in the style of the Ele cd on Sigma
Editions label - deep spacious amorphous experimental ambient
music.
The Vladislav Delay material on Chain Reaction seems to combine
elements from both his spacious experimetanl ambient material
as well as his more rhythmically-based tracks producing deep
spacious rhythmically complex tracks.
Another recent Vladislav Delay project worth checking out is
his remix on the recent Autopoieses remix 2xlp on Mille Plateaux.
On this mix Vladislav combines a deep amopheous ambient
soundscape with the disjointed digital processing of the original
Autopoises track producing the impression of random digital
noise bursts slowly swirling down the drain in a wash of warm
chords. In interesting mix.
Regarding the Huone 12", I've been looking for that one but have
not been able to find it here in the states. I'd be interested in
hearing how that one is as well. Also I too am eager for the
forthcoming Conoco 12" on Sigma Editions. Who knows what
sound he will undertake on that one...
