Biosphere - Autour De La Lune download mp3 flac

The French organisation <I>l’Atelier de Création Radiophonique de France Culture</I> already ordered the terrific <I>Zyklop</I> album from Thomas Koner in 2002, and this time the honour went to <B>Biosphere</B> who also delivered a very minimal realization.<BR><B>Autour De La Lune</B> - apparently an allusion to Jules Verne’s <I>De La Terre A La Lune</I> (from the Earth to the Moon) - continues to focus on minimalism and no beats at all are to be found. Instead of that, extreme attention went to the exploration of the deep and subsonic area. Playing this on a seriously amped system is an amazing experience, in fact, it is a necessity or the album will not make sense. I had the chance to see Biosphere live with this material a couple of months before the release and remember how the music forced everyone down to the floor - whether it was to go sit or to go laying - and how we then got crushed by the extreme bassscapes rolling through the building. No hushed ambient there, no, Geir turned the knobs wide open! Think we all left afterwards kind of wondering what happened that night, not really knowing what to make of it, me even thinking that the rattling and squeaking of the building actually matched nicely with the exhaled massive power… Thinking of a journey to the moon seems to make most sense indeed: the extreme droning of the machinery propelling all forward, the minimal sound of emptiness and the glassy sounds of the small you with your fragile bleeping equipment brought in front of a dark massive moon … One of the more difficult Biospheres that will not be appreciated by all, but will be a discovery for others.<BR>
