BE WITH
Library / Psychedelic / SoundtracksNew Vinyl LP / 26 EUR
Continuing Be With’s library music reissues series is this latest callback to the rare 1979 album French composer and producer Michael Gonet, who, like many of his contemporaries, created futuristic and experimental sounds for TV, radio and film, working at the precipice of a new, transitional media age. Dripping from this bleeding edge comes twelve strange tracks for timpani, synth and odd time signature, occasionally dipping into styles ranging from synthpop, minimalism and funk. Choice weirdo segments include the forbidden-planetary ‘Phasing Percussions’ tracks and the dastardly instrumental-fonky ‘Devil Dances’.
