MNQ 044 POLICE DES MOEURS - POLICE DES MOEURS LP

- LP on black vinyl - Limited edition of 500 copies

- -

PDM is a synth pop band formed in Montreal in 2010 and they give the francophone perspective on what Black Marble, Lust For Youth, and Cold Showers did in English in 2012, as well as fitting in with the output of Lescop. Members are Francis, Anouk, Fred and Cristine.

Their debut full-length, after some quicky old out singles, is permeated by a cold, melodic and nostalgic music for broken hearts and dark minds. PDM is the soundtrack for the nuclear night, a transition moment between the end of utopia and the final ecological disaster. The world after the future.

PDM main influences and interests are underground aestheticisms (1979-1981), industrial transformations and the process of electrification, norms and deviance, nuclear and environmental anxiety as well as paranoia, secret agents, spies and political extremists.

Strongly recommended to fans of Rational Youth, New Order, Martin Dupont, Jacno, The Normal, Xeno & Oaklander.

“The Museum is at that curve in the street that you have always known but never visited…” 

After the renowned and out-of-print 2006 album „Dream Of Waking“, this Autumn brings us SLEEP MUSEUM‘s second vinyl album on Anna Logue Records, ‘White Like Summer Sutures‘. While SLEEP MUSEUM/Robert Anthony‘s output has been quite genre-breaking over the last years  ‘White Like Summer Sutures‘ combines some of their more rhythmic, sequencer-driven dark minimal electro tracks, recorded between 2009 and 2012. Musical references range from early Front 242 to Portion Control and Skinny Puppy, yet it is always clearly just SLEEP MUSEUM. The album‘s artwork was exclusively drawn and designed by Paul Takahashi, who in his own words describes  Robert Anthony/SLEEP MUSEUM‘s work as follows:

“Sleep Museum is, as I see it, outsider art. It is raw, unapologetic, driven by obsession, sometimes lit by sparkles of surrealist poetry, sometimes downright deviant and cruel. While the music itself belongs to a specific genre that ranges from Fad Gadget to Martial Canterel, it is constantly under the grip of a darker vision that pours through the lyrics. They reveal an automatic process of exploration, of revelation, of self-vivisection. The beast within becomes self-aware and rebels just as the spine depicted on the cover, unbalancing the body and the object up to the point of breaking the fourth wall – the inner gatefold then reveals its own template, the paper cuts, the smeared carbon. Robert Anthony uses his synths to pry open himself, his words becoming the little voice to be heard from the Museum concealed within each one of us. Each song from White Like Summer Sutures is a fleeting fantasy around which sound coagulated, creating malicious seeds ready to find a new soil – the listener's mind.” - Paul Takahashi, Helsinki, September 15, 2013.

PEINE PERDUE (Coco Gallo/Stephane Argillet) - 2012
excerpt from the album "No Souvenir" (Cold Beats records, 2014)

Les sentiments inachevés
S'obstinent
À changer de fleuve

Le désespoir est à son comble

Mon âme, retient mon corps
Emporté par le courant

Le naufrage se poursuit

Scène intermédiaire
D'un drame immense

Fuite de l'existence

Au-delà des retenues
Passent les rapides
Prisonniers de la cartographie

Les liaisons transatlantiques
Ne se font plus

Les trains de nuit vers l'Est
Faussent compagnie
  
Les Ferry-Boats
N'abordent plus les tempêtes

Les long-courriers
Plient bagages

Au-delà des retenues
Passent les rapides
Prisonniers de la cartographie
 
Le naufrage se poursuit
Tous ne reviendront pas

Les sentiments inachevés
S'obstinent
À changer de fleuve

Le désespoir est à son comble
Le naufrage se poursuit
Tous ne reviendront pas


Peine Perdue - FAUSSE COMPAGNIE

FRANK ALPINE - No Exit

"The third installation of the Circuit D'Actes series from Belgian-French label La Forme Lente. In keeping with the spirit of its acclaimed (and now sold out) predecessors, this new release offers a focus on modern acts (2 tracks each) as much as an overview of all things synth-based.
From Position Parallèle (Geoffroy D of Dernière Volonté) and Kline Coma Xero's dark romanticism to the self-described "No future pop" of Illustration Sonore (feat. members of Dolina, Âme de Boue, Jeunesse Fantôme and Froe Char) and Új Látásmód Fúzió /Post-Festum minimalistic soundscapes or Shiny Black Mater's (former Le Syndicat Electronique) take on 19th century nursery rhyme, every track is striking evidence of the creative forces within the synth wave scene."
