Fi/Sequenced Twinset
Thrill Jockey
thrill 12.19 - 1999
Lithops is Jan from Mouse on Mars. "Sequenced Twinset" and "Fi" are two remastered tracks from the early Lithops period in 1995. Beautifully flowing, they leave behind the boundaries between classical music writing, sound programming and spontanious music improvisation. Microtonal buzzes, strained melodies, feedback hiss, digital noise events, tape tricks and dub perversions fuse to become a hybrid lecture of freaked out subtleness. This limited 12" is filled with poetic surgery dissecting traces of structural complexity and compositional skill on the surface of pure music.
