Onderstroom Records / LP
Philippe Genion (Los
Casios, The Presocratic Umbrellas, JTB, Confite Sonar and à;GRUMH... which
became a major EBM band of the 80's and now has a practically cult status)
released as POLAR PRAXIS in 1985 "MUSIQUES POUR FEUX
D'ARTIFICE" on Play it Again Sam's "Scarface" sub-label, a two
side/two songs LP containing rythmic dance-like electronic music, which
pre-figured the DJ'S of the end of the 90's. Later, on the new label
created by S3 and Kenny Gates of PIAS, "CIRCLE RECORDS", Polar Praxis
released a second, and last, mini-album "FIREWORKS", a collection
of songs all titles "Music for Fireworks", repetitive music in the
style and inspiration of Philip Glass and Steve Reich. Both were actually used
as music for profesionnal fireworks in Belgium and Europe.
