Not Only Bones – Axel Romain

Regular price ¥0

Tax included.

Not Only Bones, a Greek minimal synth duo consisting of Yannis Raikos and Philippe Mignon, released this second cassette album in 1987. Total 16 fascinating tracks, from minimal electro with raw analog feel/eccentric electronics, to bedroom type tune/boxy soundscape with parallel swirling synthesizers. The impression that the compositional quality have improved dramatically since the first album. The title is the name of the son of Yannis Raikos, a key person involved in the masterpiece Alive She Died at the same time, and this birth was also a major turning point for this work. Total impressive. Original cassette with rare insert.

Yannis RaikosとPhilippe MignonによるギリシャのミニマルシンセデュオNot Only Bonesによるセカンドとなる87年リリースの自主カセット作品。ロウな感触、奇抜な電子使いのミニマル・エレクトロや時折見せる箱庭風景や淡い音響工作も魅惑的な全16曲の充実の内容。ファーストより曲の構成力が格段に進歩している印象を持ちます。同時期に傑作Alive She Died作品にも関わっているキーパーソンYannis Raikosの息子の名前がタイトルになっています、この誕生がこの作品への大きな転換点にもなったようです。全編最高。稀少なインサート付きのオリジナル。
