about

"Dubs for the end of the world spill out of the magnetic confines of "Chaîne Opératoire." Synthetic drips deter the sun like a pointillist shade, blotting out all solar rays before they do damage. Melodic sequences float through the air, shifting ever so slightly so that each individual tone morphs into its own modulating sphere. Selman tweaks every last detail in just the right way, constantly showing off his impressive compositional chops like a surgeon snipping only the dead, useless strands and letting the remains breathe new life. Edition of 50." -Digitalis Recordings press release.

Originally released on Digitalis Ltd. in an edition of 50 cassettes.
