The theme running through this whole split album is the acoustics of mines. All material is based on field recordings made by Toy.Bizarre's Cédric Peyronnet in partially disused French mines in the mid-1990s. Scratching, gravelly, cavernous sounds dominate the soundscape, evoking a world of subterranean gloom that seems familiar to listeners of Emerge's bass-heavy drone compositions. On Peyronnet’s side, the field recordings are arranged in a collage-like manner, but the atmosphere created by this editing is strikingly similar to the one dominating the album side processed by Emerge. Through this intriguing interplay, the two artists make us reflect on the role of the recording medium which, through the very fact that it is a medium, turns every ‘natural’ sound into a ‘cultural’ artefact. Ltd x 300 copies in a j-card sleeve.
