DANIEL MENCHE - Glass Forest - CD
imprec176 - CD - $11.99 
Glass Forest is a highly listenable starting point for any
newcomers curious about Daniel Menche's vast discography. It is also, according to Menche, the last cd he will release. From now on he'll be releasing his music on LP only or on DVD to accompany films he's been working on. Glass Forest is also the companion release to Body Melt which is being released simultaneously on Important on LP only.
Recorded in the winter of 2005, Daniel Menches Glass Forest displays a glistening sound world that finely textured with the most delicate of raw organic sound and chaotic electronic noise. Not at all extreme as with Menches previous work but rather a more subtle presence can be heard here on Glass Forest. Subsonic bass drums crawling underneath a massive sheets of glass-like sound layering infinitely into a thick and dense forest of delicate noise. For fans of Daniel Menche's ambient work and also his loud violent work, Glass Forest fits exactly right in the middle of these two polarities.

Imagine yourself riding on cells coasting
through your body's veins. The sound of the heart grows stronger
like a beating drum as you're pulled closer. Suddenly, you're
embraced by this giant pulsating muscle and when you're finally
released back into the veins you can hear it's sound fading
slowly, but still growling with the same intensity that it
has beat with for eternity. Jugularis is the soundtrack
to this ride and like your heart it's packaged in blood: the
ultimate symbol of life and intensity.

Sirocco by Daniel Menche is the first recording
by him created by utilizing sound sources from several other
sound artists. Andrew Lagowski, Asmus Tietchens, Main, John
Duncan, Scanner, Illusion Of Safety, Merzbow, ErikM, B. Labelle
and AMT submitted one minute sections of sound for Daniel
Menche to work with.
Much like Steve Reich's Phase Patterns or Phillip Glass' Music
In 12 Parts, this is a lenghty single piece that evolves and
and changes shape slowly over the course of the composition. |

published instrumental work for synthesizer. Titled Interior

What did you listen to last summer? Masami
Akita, otherwise know as Merzbow, spent most of his summer
listening to Horace Andy, Studio One, Dennis Bovel, Keith
Hudson and a whole pipe full of other dub mavericks. That's
probably why this brand new full length, with cover art by
Jenny Akita, is dripping with deep bass riffage and a whole
lot of electronic dub vibes and beats. |
