I see from the M-Dos mailout that the long
awaited new Pita album called "Get Out" is
now out on the Mego label.
I dont have it yet but here is some info
on sed release...
Here is the M-Dos writeup on it: 9 tracks
Made on the Twisted Harddisc in Vienna, Paris,
Oxford, Amsterdam, New York and Tokyo 6/98-6/99
File management at Random Studio, Vienna 7/99
A more varied, complex affair than its predecessor
with a couple of surprises thrown in for absolutely
no reason at all.
Half the edition is available in red, the other in
blue.
Also a review from The Wire (October 1999)
Both a treat and trauma for the ears, "Get Out"
sees Mego founder Peter Rehberg in solo mode,
opening out a varied collection of simmering
sound-scapes. Nine (untitled) tracks, totalling
38-minutes, move you through a devastating,
shifting spoor, through opposing poles of extreme
noise / quiet, startles and jolts, addictive hooks,
stasis-tracks, stumbling trip-ups and snags,
flickering, alien ambience - making full use of
dynamics and the stereo spectrum. Eleven-minutes
long, Track 3 works gorgeous chord-run hooks
through dense shrouds of scouring splinter-noise.
Space opens up, narrows back down as the jagged
texture-layers expand and contract, tweaking bass
and treble. Like the white-out of MBV's "You Made
Me Realise", it hits you as an awe-full,
jaw-dropping revelation, stopping dead in its tracks
without warning. A brilliant, concise study in
sound-design, structure and tweaked expectations,
on "Get Out" every second seems vital, every
sound placed and bristling with life.
