Release Notes:
--------------
Martial Canterel (famous ever since releasing Confusing Outsides on
Genetic Music) and Silent Signals (Echo West side-project) come
together on this split CD release. Neither Silent Signals nor Martial
Canterel needs an introduction with minimal lovers. Nevertheless, what
is quite surprising though is that both projects have their own typical
style of minimal music - SS going really dynamic whereas MC is more
into 1 take, less dynamic, more 'rough-diamond' style of minimal music
- and yet both projects blend really really nicely together on this
album.
This release is the successor to the label's very successful Lost/Found
release by Absolute Body Control. It would come as no surprise if
pretty soon also this one is bound to be handled on eBay for ridiculous
prices, just as it's the case with the Lost/Found collector.
With the mastering in the professional hands of Eric Van Wonterghem
(overly known from acts as Monolith, Insekt and Absolute Body Control)
this masterpiece has the finishing touch it truly deserves.
In the line of where the label is going, musically speaking, it's only
fair to say that it picks up nicely where ABC has left off. In true
minimal style, built upon analogue sounds, this album yields a feeling
of nostalgia towards the eighties new wave roots.
Views beyond the city wall comes in a 4-page digipak, kicking off
purely minimal with Sean McBride as Martial Canterel, smoothly building
up and handing over control to Dirk Torben Klein of Silent Signals
filling the spectrum with ever more dense and dynamic tracks.
You'll just love this one if you're even remotely into minimal music!!
