Tetsu Inoue - Object And Organic Code download mp3 flac

Object and Organic code is one of Tetsu Inoue’s more difficult albums, but it is a very intriguing one. On a first quick listen the blips and bleeps seem omnipresent and leave you with a pretty synthetic taste, but the more you listen to it, the more it feels like all those busy buzzing bits are arranged in a gentle, not so chaotic way, creating this almost organic slice of world. And because all these little parts that make up the composition are so independently complex, they remind you of a thousand and one things you could witness in nature, in a city, in feelings, …
In short: a very complex release pushing it to the edge of aesthetics with a title that in fact says it all.

Though I'm not nearly as big a fan of Tetsu's 'blips' phase as I was of his rich, lush ambient on some of the early Fax releases, this CD has one very cool/annoying feature, that being that four semi-circles have been cut from the CD, leaving what looks like a square which has been bent in from all four sides. Yes, shaped CD's are neat, and even aesthetically amusing, but with the proliferation of slot (and even some tray) CD players, it's not always easy to find somewhere to listen to these things.
