BABEL - Julius [excerpt]

Deciding it was time to declare a draw with entropy and get out before he started unduly plagiarizing himself, Jakob Rehlinger declared an end to his long-running BABEL project. Sampled bells and proggy keyb, this floated in froopy stasis before swirling into the æther with the whispered farewells of a thousand digital monks. Although a bit sad to see this malleable solo-persona slip away, Rehlinger still has some other flavours on offer in his Arachnidiscs stable. Expect new offshoots to emerge, snake-eating-tail-style.

[Relinger's own edit of this live set can be found on the BABEL bandcamp, alongside with some other versions of the piece. Track Could Bend returns on Tuesday (September 5th) with some excellent voices and other sounds featuring MAMALIA, Lash Pandiculations (Tova G. Kardonne, Heather Saumer, Ali Berkok) and jiggy jiggy jiggy (Christopher Willes, Thom Gill, Phil Melanson).]
