a long awaited re-issue of LP :
Monoton - Monotonprodukt 07
(MonotonProdukt 1982)
Monoton is, Viennese media, light and sound artist Konrad Becker. His second album Monotonprodukt 07, a double, is so alive with the pulses that triggered many Electronicas to come, from Techno through Trance to Mego's creeping static, you could make a case for Becker's guruhood. Yet, for all its prescient washed out tones, threadbare textures and Minimalist rigour, it has the edge on much that followed. Adopting an imperious art stance towards mainstreams and margins alike, Becker cast a cold analytic eye over Electronica's urfathers, picking up on Suicide's jittertronic urgency, if not their melodrama, and DAF's throbbing sequencers, but with the sex threat removed, which he patched into his own crackling circuits, hissing vistas and tumbling beatstreams. His dryness cannot entirely suppress a likeable goofiness: "Fish lives in water - thirsty". BK

from ORAL to Monoton :
"If we understand the re-issue of Monoton 07 not as an historical act, but as acomposition built on 20 years and finalized because of the technical abilities of nowadays to give meat to the ideas you wanted to express at the time of the first release, shouldn't we called it Monoton 07 20y++.....

Christof Migone, south winds
out : january 2003

I am the earth and of the earth . I love neither the air nor the light, but the infernal night of my ass and of all asses for I am the voluminous assassin, the depth of my being is the volume of my body.
  Antonin Artaud

.... and it is not only the mouths who sing, but the hands, the feets, the asses, the sexes, and the creature entire which liquifies in sounds, voice and rhythm.
  Aimé Césaire

Suddenly the toad's descending colon thundered, and the nonalimentary bolus of pure fire took its usual path once more toward the pole of the devil Plural.
  Alfred Jarry

South Winds presents the results of a recording session Christof Migone undertook with Le Petomane (Joseph Pujol 1857-1945). Le Petomane performed his fart fantasia at the Moulin Rouge in Paris where, to much acclaim, he would imitate musical instruments and with his ?second mouth¹ hum recognisable tunes. For South Winds, Le Petomane and Migone sought to explore these somatic winds as a response to Artaud¹s ontological formulation: ³the depth of my being is the volume of my body.² Both Artaud and Pujol were brought up in Marseilles, city in the path of the infamous Mistral, a wind which ³has the ill-natured habit of scattering roof tiles about, knocking down chimneys, blowing small children into canals, tumbling walls onto the unsuspecting natives.² South Winds will have the same impetuous effect, it will confirm that the body is a noisy place. The body emits and transmits, it cannot contain itself. South Winds is an essay on the flatulent and the incontinent.
