The first side of this split features Coppice – the Chicago-based duo Joseph Kramer and Noé Cuéllar. Their track was produced in response to Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt’s “Oblique Strategies”, a deck of cards designed to inform a creative process… “to sober and quiet the mind, thus rendering it susceptible to divine influences”. The composition is heard through Aircraft Halation, an arrangement of phantom musical glasses in a dual induction of 432 and 440 Hz tunings, with sine wave frequencies faded in and out of different speaker positions. “The music has an old-school electronic music feeling, with some excellent dynamic approaches. A fantastic piece of music” (FdW).

On the flip side, Ingeos ~ Toy.Bizarre (aka Cédric Peyronnet) presents a continuous collage. “…processing objects, banging them around and feeding them through his favourite tools for sound processing… The music indeed has that old musique concrete approach [with] the original roughness of the acoustic objects is a recurring element in the music, sitting along their processed parts all along. Peyronnet’s music maintains a beautiful, playful character” (FdW, Vital Weekly).
