You're welcome. Even thought I took French for 4 years in school, I'm totally unable to speak the language. The translation comes from an internet translator page. My French friends say it does some very unusual things. Laughing

Sorry to get off on the topic of translating software.

Like I said before, it's very interesting, very unique, original. I like it. thumb up

Like many other tunes off this site, I downloaded all your buggers and listened to them while on the train for six hours.

Chats Des Gouttieres is just amazing. How do you make that noise? I'm so impressed! It's evil! Distorted, screamingly resonant, and somehow biological! It's like the bellowing of one of Dune's worms, if it had been fossilised in iron for billions of years. Yes sir, this is a beauty. I will treasure it for life.

Espaces is also cool. I like the heartbeat thing and the scrunching noises that sound like a corpses being devoured by cockroaches. Oh yes! And all this devouring seems to be taking place on the floor of some kind of weird power station. Great!

Evasion. Also good. This is the sound information makes when it's beamed between satellites in space.

Flowers Are Eaten By Dogs. Liking it. A bit more of a percussive flavour. This is a small bouncy ball working it's way through a huge mountain of polystyrene cups.

L'ordinaire. This one doesn't really make an impression for me, although I suppose the organ chords that turn up halfway through are something of a surprise.

Transport. The intro sounds like a man made of velcro being torn apart by starving dogs. I salute you for bringing that image to my mind. I like the way about a minute in everything changes, and it suddenly sounds like a child is playing a cheap synthesiser wearing gardening gloves. Good work.
Then some faintly scary flute business, then someone playing frantically with a zip in an electrostatic rainstorm. Hmmm. Overall I do like this one.

Usine. YES! I remember this one from the train. I love the way the noise gets rolled up into rhythmical chunks, and then gets used as the basis for some other stuff. This is the most obviously rhythmical of the tunes - are you suddenly aiming for the top ten? But yeah, all the odd noises plopped on top are really cool. Not really feeling the sine wave/organ type chords you introduce later. This sort of track doesn't really gain anything from the sudden addition of 'music'. My opinion. The 'thunk! ting!' outro doesn't do much for me. But overall, the track is good.

I like all this kind of stuff - the stuff Mosc and the other muso gents refer to as 'musique concrete'. It just reels a series of really really random images in front of my mind, without any imaginative effort being required on my part. Great stuff!

I'd like to hear more.
