[Eg0_CD06] Denis Mc Carty – Ces Gens-là (Business card CD-R)

Posted by eg0cide on

“Ces gens-là” is a continuation of Denis Mc Carty‘s net-released “1+1=3” serie, (experimental live mixes using only 1 vinyl EP, played with a special 2-headed turntable and foot looper)
On this new version* of Ces Gens-Là (a song of the famous 20th century belgian singer Jacques Brel) he uses also a tape loop, but as usual everything is recorded and mixed live. The result is a gorgeous piece based on of looped vinyl crackles and melancolic piano, Jacques’ disconstructed half-spoken & shouting vocals, bathed in a sea of analog saturation.
Denis Mc Carty is a member of the french experimental collective / label H.A.K

[Eg0_019] Cédric Lerouley – Manifestation

Posted by eg0cide on

With this new release Eg0cide productions wish to make you discover the work of Cédric Lerouley, a discreet and underestimated drone/experimental artist from France. The 2 tracks of “Manifestation” show 2 sides of his work :  mysterious, subtle & ominous drone (which reminds me a bit of Jim O’Rourke’s “Disengage”) and delicate acoustic minimalist music…

Like most of his music, this album has firstly been published in 2005 as a (now out of print (??)) limited CD-R on COmmA, Cédric’s own label, and was (like all CommA releases) packaged in a splendid handmade cover.

It contains 8 tracks of of epic dark ambient,  sometimes cold and gritty (In Darkness We Lust), sometimes warm and melancolic (Noa Onge), with subtle minimalist/neo-classical influenced melodies (Elegy, Every Day Another Lie)  and occasional discreet beats (The Last Delusion).

[Eg0_018] Digital Mass – Shatter Fog

Posted by eg0cide on

Shatter Fog is the first official release of Digital Mass, a collaborative ambient/experimental act. Their members want to remain anonymous, the only thing to know about them is that the number of people involved in this project is subject to changes depending on the albums.
So let’s focus on their music and enter into their experimental soundscapes, amongst abstract foggy drones, occasional minimal beats, parasited sound transmissions from other planets and/or an antediluvian past…

[Eg0_017] Lusruta – Sailing The Sea Of Nothingness

Posted by eg0cide on

Despite being Lusruta‘s first official release, Sailing The Sea Of Nothingness is a very mature and achieved recording. This epic droning piece could remind you of Steve Roach’s most minimal works like “darkest before dawn” or “a deeper silence” but it has an undoubtedly personal touch…

eg0_017

…Lay down and close your eyes…The sea of nothingness is loaded with powerful bass resonances and discreetly illuminated by an etheral starlight…You are floating, or flying, or drowning – or maybe simply dreaming?… The abyss is pulsating under you, thick and mysterious…The wide night sky upon you makes you breathe freer and deeper….Your mind becomes thin and extensive like the horizon…

…If after this first trip, you don’t want to go back on the ground, please be aware that “Transparent Obscurity”, Lusruta’s 2nd album is in progress, and shall be released on cd-r by eg0cide in a few months. You can already listen to some samples on his myspace page

[Eg0_016] CDRX – The Dreamscape’s Machinery

Posted by eg0cide on

Eg0cide Productions are glad to welcome CDRX again, this time with a solo piece : The Dreamscape’s Machinery is another subtle and mysterious soundscape, with a well chosen title and fitting artwork (also created by CDRX himself).
This music is very hard to describe, I discover something new in it at each listening. Not sure it should be tagged as “ambient” (if you care for tags), but I find it very relaxing to play when half sleeping. It reminds me of summer naps when you fall asleep and wake up over and over , and don’t know if what you hear come from a dream, from a buzzing machine in your room, from chaotic uncouscious memories, from insects or noises outside, or a mix of it all…
CDRX has wonderfully caught the machinery of these ambigous states when dreams and reality melt into each other. Now just lay down, close your eyes and try for yourself…

[Eg0_015] Tribe of Astronauts – Amalgamed

Posted by eg0cide on

After several sonic manifestations on Webbed Hand and Treetrunk, the Tribe of Astronauts landed again on earth and have chosen to deliver their new work on Eg0cide Productions : Amalgamed

It features exclusively sounds from Mystified‘s albums : 22  tracks from Amalgam and one from Cosmic Howling. The original recordings haven’t been altered : the only effects used are light equalization and compression on some tracks, and of course pans and fades, and little edits (just a few “copy and paste” when a particular sequence needed to be extended)

The Astronauts wish you a good trip and would like to thank Thomas of Mystified for his support and inspiring sound experiments.
