Brume - Unrelated Landscape ,tape,1990,France

French sound-sculptor Christian Renou, who has recorded under the moniker Brume from 1985 to 2001, is heir to the glorious traditions of musique concrete and sound collage. His compositions (that treat, assemble and mix acoustic sounds) rely on dense, rapid-fire montage. They wed cacophony and dynamics, emphasizing both the element of discontinuity and the element of continuity. Compared with classical musique concrete, they harbor a "negative" virus that would be at home both in German expressionism and in British punk-rock. Brume exploits the technique of Mnemonists and the aesthetics of Einsturzende Neubauten. He produced about 40 cassettes, including Frikture (Brume, 1985), Le Jour Du Cochon (1986), Program T.4 (1986), In Death We Trust (Underground, 1988), Poison (R.R. Production, 1988), Catalogue (Brume, 1988), Permafrost (1988), Tribalit‚s urbaines (Brume, 1988), Climatiseur (1989), Temporary Pigments (Old Europa Cafe, 1989), Headache (Organic, 1989), Accident de Chasse (Tonspur, 1989), The Sun (Old Europa Cafe, 1990), Unrelated Landscape (Audiofile, 1990), Autoportrait (La Legende Des Voix, 1991), Electrocoagulation (Irre, 1991), Schiluuk (Corrosive, 1991), Epineuse (De Fabriek, 1991), Recifs (Audiofile, 1991), Iswari (SPH, 1991), I'm...I Come...I Was...

The EP Anastomose (Ant-zen, 1996) and the album Starving Vrischika (Old Europa Cafe, 1999) inaugurated his major season.
