Comment: by
listening to this 5-track issue by the Montrèal, Quebec,
Canada-based duo Endos which consists of such experimenters as John
Brennan aka Johnny Naughty, and Shane Turner aka Turner Of Wheels it
did evoke many thoughts and dormant sensations to surface. Of course,
it comes out from Montrèal, which is a fertile soil for every kind
of art, including the music, including the experimental sort of
music. Tim Hecker, Martin Tètreault, Muhr, Simon Trottier, Nicolas
Bernier, Akufen, a loads of GYBE-related projects. Let`s add to it a
bunch of other artists who have been involved both with the city and
in such labels as Alien8 Recordings, Constellation, Where Are My
Records, Camomille, Epsilonlab, Panospria/No Type. Indeed, the recent issue which
initially was issued in February of 2005 is a part of the discography
of the latter labels. For me, it is an outstanding issue due to its
fluctuating nature being somewhere between a ghastly noise fractal,
glitched-out incantations and concrete sound-based hazy reality,
however, one could never forget the issue is produced somewhere in
the northern hemisphere somewhere quite close to the subarctic
latitudes. Furthermore, it sets up my brain to think of it as an
emotional one though it does have nothing in common with superfluous
and wasted emotionality of the pop artists. The final track
White
Dots, Red Bubbles is a little poppy in its sentimentality though
having nothing in common with brainless pop artists. As I have
already said its is a truly praiseworthy outing. It is the pure
sound.
