Pulsion
(Geometrik - GR2115) LP $30.00 (Out-of-stock)
The vinyl edition of the new album by this influential Spanish duo was recorded in Beijing and Rome between November 2008 and May 2009. Pulsión is pure industrial hypnosis and irresistible rhythms -- repetitive, machine-like, sometimes tribal, sometimes danceable -- along with appropriated and electronically manipulated trad musics (from the Middle East, Mongolia, China, and Tibet) and speech fragments by a radical Japanese politician, Che Guevara, and an anti-occidental Islamist leader. Four tracks from the CD, plus two exclusive tracks ("Metallum" and "Lamas").
