This is a track for a video called Abîmes, and you can watch this here: https://vimeo.com/121241037

"This video is built from multiple screens nested within other screens, a kind of screen "inception", for disrupt information, to create some noise and confusion. The temporalities mix with each other, information becomes blurred. The viewer is then lost in the abyss of data processing information. It's just like a weird and sick macintosh screen, like a brain. It's about anxiety, paranoia, internet, information, noise, and confusion. Video and audio are of my own creation. The project is called "Abîmes", is like in the bible "Tehwom", or "Abyss" in english. If you want watch this video, is better in fullscreen."

SKY GIRL 2LP/CD/DIG OUT NOW

Sky Girl is a mysteriously unshakeable companion, a deeply melancholic and sentimental journey through folk-pop, new wave and art music micro presses that span 1961-1991. A seemingly disparate suite of selections of forgotten fables by more or less neverknowns, Sky Girl forms a beautifully coherent and utterly sublime whole deftly compiled by French collectors DJ Sundae and Julien Dechery.

From Scott Seskind's adolescent musical road movie to Karen Marks' icy Oz-wave, the charming DIY storytelling of Italian-American go-getter Joe Tossini and the ethereal slow dance themes of Parisian artists Nini Raviolette and Hugo Weris, Sky Girl resonates on a wide spectrum historically, geographically and stylistically. It unites in a singular, longing, almost intangible ambience.

If the names sound wholly unfamiliar that doesn't matter, the nature of the compositions swiftly nurtures an intimacy with these lonely, poignant, openhearted wanderers. Most were available in a very limited capacity at the time of their release, some were never really released at all - Gary Davenport declined to release Sarra after he split with the girl for whom the track is named - years later a friend convinced Davenport to allow him to put 100 copies online to sell and DJ Sundae was quick enough to snare one. Beyond their scarcity, these tracks are bound together by a certain raw beauty that's achievable when music is made and no one is listening.

Sky Girl comprises of fifteen officially licensed songs, a two year international scavenger hunt through long-folded home label operations, the depths of internet forums and traceless acetates. Both compilers are well trained record sleuths - DJ Sundae's labels Hollie and Idle Press have reissued Arthur Russell affiliate Nirosta Steel and DIY relic Pitch, while Julien Dechery previously compiled 'Fire Star', a retrospective on Tamil film composer Ilaiyaraaja, for Bombay Connection.

Released by Noise In My Head offshoot Efficient Space, Sky Girl is enriched with artwork from Perks and Mini mutant Misha Hollenbach and appropriately elegant sleeve notes courtesy of Ivan Smagghe.

Paskine is a musician composer and video maker, his work is focused on acoustic and visual projects, each of these elements are closely interrelated and influence each other. He creates graphic documents, short movies, videos, sound installations, performances, musical works and albums. His work is based on the will to succeed to distort a mechanism, to create an independant approach, repetitive and progressive, working toward a caused confusion. The idea is to work on undesired phenomena that might simply or unintentionally disrupt an information, either chronological, narrative, music or video, with the result of coincidence and accident. It aims at making an abstract information, bordering on a visible and immaterial work. These differents results are demonstrating an individual view, a subjective observation of a certain ambient instability.
