ARTIST/LABEL NOTES:
Josef K. Noyce is sometimes known to work in the Austrian band Monochrome Blau, and to pilot the die ind label. These recordings were roughly concurrent with those for his LP on the Bad Alchemy label, ‘Josef K. Noyce Sings Shakespeare, which should not be confused with his cassette by the same name which was releaseo on my label in 1987. On this cassette, JKN throws everything conceivable into the mix, yes even that wonderful singing voice that Monochrome Blau fans have learned to love. Best of all, he knows all those SECRETS about die Ind’s Wolfgang Dorninger that just won’t go away!
Review by Bryan Baker, GAJOOB 7, 1990:
Recorded live in the studio with no multitrack overdubs except a wonderfully strange guitar segueway on one of the cuts, this tape features an outstanding sonic depth and diverse musical constructions that take turns with synthetic harshness and subtle percussive driving atmospheres. And yet other times Noyce’s intermittent vocals reveal a sort of Celtic influence. While Noyce flirts and experiments he steers onto paths you don’t expect, but are very glad to be travelling.
Media: Cassette.
