“Primal Fictions” may sound like the early work of a literary novelist, but words are not Daniel Menche’s chosen form of expression – instead, sound and noise form the foundation of his 30 year dedication to abstract sonic exploration. “Primal Fictions” (LP) released by Ferns Recordings is a prime display of Menche’s unique approach to field recordings and electronic manipulation. An earthly marriage of the acoustic and electronic worlds, “Primal Fictions” is a stunning example of Menche’s immersive and overwhelming music, one that invites the listener to become lost inside a vast sound forest. 200 copies.
