Dog As master - Trompeur Et Sournois
TROMPEUR ET SOURNOIS
Sadistic experimental electronic music by Dog As Master: long passages of near-silence are punctuated by noise blasts at unpredictable intervals. One continuous 47-minute track - Imagine that you are blindfolded and naked, tied to a chair - thumbing my nose, slap in your face, a sadistic twist of your arm and nipple pinch in sound. Over and over again, no matter how much it hurts. It is the quieter parts which make the loud parts all the more painful.
New digital remaster October 3, 2013 is transcribed directly from the original 4-track cassette mixdown master from 1985. Overall volume levels have been boosted, and high, mid, and low frequencies have been enhanced for maximum possible sound destruction.
Trompeur Et Sournois
Sadistic experimental electronic music by Dog As Master: near-silence punctuated by noise blasts. One continuous 47-minute track, hewn from the same mass of sonic material as Black Body.
- Originally released on cassette in 1985, C46, on the Cause And Effect label; re-released by Freedom In A Vacuum, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (1990).
review by Mike Gunderloy, Factsheet Five, 1985:
"Usually I'm not all that thrilled with experimental music, but I took a shine to this one, perhaps because of its outright obnoxiousness. Most of the tape is somewhere between dead silence and low-level white noise. But the listener who cranks it up will be sorry, because this is punctuated at irregular intervals by blasts of electronic sound. Not easy to listen to, but strangely rewarding."
- Trompeur Et Sournois was mastered on a Sony UCX-S90 Type II High Bias cassette tape, with Dolby B Noise Reduction.
