Album Notes & Community Reviews

Thierry Müller's experimental electronic project debuted with this unsettling, highly atmospheric exploration of tape manipulation and drone. The recording relies heavily on repetitive synthesizer loops and treated guitar noise, creating a cold, avant-garde soundscape that stood apart from the melodic conventions of the French progressive scene.
