Comment: just
having read that the French president Emmanuel Macron has a
helicopter on standby to evacuate him while France is controlled by a
huge part of the nation, by the so-called yellow vests. While
listening to this project of Zan Hoffman, and this half-hour issue
(he reimagines recordings of his home taping friends like Swinebolt
45, and Minoy). I guess something analogously horrible and terrifying
may be happening in the head of the leader now. Especially if there
is up a comparison to the situation what happened in Romania exactly
29 years ago or what happened in France 229 years ago. In the latter
case, the king did not have a helicopter and his attempt to run away
with carriage failed. Musically it is a haphazard yet threateningly
ecstatic blend of drumming, chimes and windbells, accidental
electronic impulses, steam trumpets, buried shrieks and overamplified
speeches, accelerated sounds of engines. Black noises are varied with
torrents of howling brown noise attacks, yeah, it seems to be the
frank analogue stuff. The issue which was initially released on ZH27
was re-released by the German imprint Attenuation Circuit in 2013 and
providing a couple of minutes more music and a bit different content
than the original one. The history repeats itself in a bit different
manner.
