3 years
ago, on July 4th 1999, hardcore techno producer Leontin V. Abligaard,
better known as TACITURNE, committed his infamous faked suicide. On each
of the 7 days leading to his “death”, he composed a different song on
his Amiga 500: a total of 7 songs and a few interludes, which were meant
to be released as a posthumous double EP on the cult Parisian imprint
BAD MING TUNES RECORDS. But as it so often happens, the album never saw
the light of day, and those ultimate sinewave symphonies, between
medieval chiptunes and neo-romantic new wave, lay dormant to this day.
Here they are at last, presented on double cassette, including a 12-page
booklet giving precious insights into the plots and counterplots of
post-techno underground Paris at the end of the last millennium.
