"Richard Pinhas is recognized as one of France's major experimental musicians. A pivotal figure in the development of electronic rock, Pinhas' stature in France is analogous to Tangerine Dream's in Germany: father figure of an entire musical movement. Pinhas first came to public attention as leader of Heldon, whose violent fusion of electronics and guitar is acknowledged to be a precursor of today's industrial music. In 1998, he teamed up with noted French 'cyber-punk' author Maurice Dantec to make a musical and spoken word tribute to his mentor, the noted philosopher Gilles Deleuze. This duo became 'Schizotrope' who came to North America, in March 1999 for a series of shows. The Life And Death of Marie Zorn was compiled from tapes of those live shows, which were Pinhas' first-ever performances in North America."
