Label: ADN

1994年から存在する仏Fractal Recordsの主宰者にして、Acid Mothers Temple周辺でも活動したJerome Geninのソロ変名プロジェクト!!本作がADNから出版された1st音源であり、その音楽性はクラウトロックの黄金期に遡り、初期Popol VuhやFaustに捧げられているとの事。破壊的でありながらもどこかユーモラスな構造が面白く、実際にFaust、Manuel Gottsching、Florian Frickeのコンポーズの手法やサンプリングにて音源を拝借、変則的なオマージュ音源として仕上げています。

This work has been created by Jerome Genin alias Magic Aum Gigi alias Diza Star, who played also in other groups affiliated to the Psychedelic rock of Acid Mothers Temple. The music goes back to the golden Krautrock years and is dedicated to the first Popol Vuh and Faust. The record thus shows two complementary sides, conceptually and musically different.

The first side, called Attraction side, is fully electronic, thematically “attractive”, with a subversive magnetization. The first track includes an unpredictable variation on the Faust song ‘J’ai mal aux dents’. The second track of this side can be seen as a kind of “bridge” between the two other tracks; somewhere in the same way as in his legendary album “Inventions for electric guitar” Manuel Göttsching placed in the middle the track ‘Quasarsphere’ (which also sounds totally different than the two others). This short track was not conceived with Göttsching in mind but with Richard H. Kirk of Cabaret Voltaire. The second side, called Bell side, is undoubtedly the result of a strange mechanical and symbiotic alchemy with a long improvisation of 20 minutes of "celestial" nature coming from a Popol Vuh sample, which is also a tribute to Florian Fricke.

In the end, a contemplative, dualistic album, originated from the emanations of Krautrock and other groups of experimental music in the same vein and actually “cosmic underground”.
