DESIRE 080EP
|
Ike Yard was a product of the New York No Wave scene, but also stood very much apart from it, then as now -- propulsive, paranoid, aggressive electro minimalism, with as much attention paid to the mixing board and effects processors as to vocals, guitar and synth. This second remix EP includes Tropic Of Cancer, who delivers a great, ethereal version of "Half a God." Former Ike Yard member and synth wizard Fred Szymanski also reinterpreted the track with a unique musique concrète-inspired electronica piece under his Recombinant guise. On the B-side there's a long Detroit-inspired techno version of "Cherish 8" by Arnaud Rebotini.
