LINE is proud to release this collection of recordings from numerous international compilations from 2002 -2005. This collection is a wide range of sound works from the ultra-minimal whispers of "composition09.01" to the subtle harmonics and musicality of "how things change" to the loud violent distortion of "tempt" (a piece only performed a handful of times for noisy spaces, for example this was one was in attempt to drown out Akufen's set filtering from an adjoining area). Many of these original compilations are out of print or hard to find editions and "untitled" making its debut on CD from its original vinyl appearance. "specification.eleven" and "specification.fourteen" are both part of the continuing collaborative works with Taylor Deupree. This CD serves as a follow up to 2002's Other Materials [ 3particles, USA ]. 1 composition09.01 from Minima-List [ List, France ] 2002 2 000.0/01 from Inflation [ MU-Label, Japan ] 2002 3 how things change from For Morton Feldman [ Trente Oiseaux, Germany ] 2002 4 tracing (sketch for) from Frequencies [HZ] [ Raster-Noton, Germany ] 2003 5 specification.eleven from Sounding Spaces [ NTT-ICC, Japan ] 2003 6 archival1992 from Two Point Two [ 12k/LINE, USA ] 2003 7 specification.fourteen from Two Point Two [ 12k/LINE, USA ] 2003 8 untitled from 1.8 compilation [ 1.8sec Records, Canada ] 2004 9 improvisation_122904b from 35 Mutant Seconds [ Grain of Sound, Portugal ] 2005 (EXCERPT) 10 tempt (live:Transmediale:Berlin:2002) from MUTEK05 [ Mutek_Rec, Canada ] 2005 Remastered by Taylor Deupree. Restock. Line co-boss Richard Chartier has conjured up a set of tracks from the archives here that gel together beautifully and form a compulsively minimal listening experience. Taking tracks from releases on Raster Noton, Trente Oiseaux, List, Mutek, 1.8sec Records, NTT-ICC, Grain of Sound and more there's a lovely sense of balance here. Whilst it challenges you with barely-there minimalism and high frequency range tracks, it also soothes with some surprisingly accessible drone-based pieces. Chartier is a producer of some substance and this CD is testament to that. If you enjoy the more minimalistic side of electronic music, this is one to check out. Super stuff and another great release from Line.
