Scanner – Alchemeia

Prepare yourselves for January 19, ten days from now!  The legendary Scanner (Robin Rimbaud in real life) has a new album out, “…a tribute to the early 1960s library music culture, applying crude techniques of electronic composition, using a mix of hardware and software. It explores a kind of musique concrète, electroacoustic character, in an otherworldly cinematic fashion.”  This will be a departure from his more experimental work, and should be a joy to listen to.  It will be released on Alltagsmusik, “a new label to release Scanner albums.”
