	Pierre Bastien - Visions of Doing
	• SKU: 4205101 • UPC: 656605458120 • Shipping: $0.19 • Description: Recording information: G.E.K., Rotterdam, The Netherlands; Studio Een, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Pierre Bastien's collaboration with filmmaker Karel Doing stretches over 20 years, and both men have exerted a strong influence on the other's art. Visions of Doing culls excerpts from Bastien's soundtracks for Doing's projects. The nine pieces selected (for about 35 minutes of music) have survived the ablation of their visual component very well, retaining the odd grace and antiquated beauty of Bastien's compositions. As usual, the instrumentation is provided by an array of mechanical robots made from building block sets. Some tracks have sound footage from the film included for ambience, like in the rapturing "Visions of Shangai," one of the disc's highlights. Quiet and delicate, this track ranks among Bastien's best but most subdued works. Other high marks are hit with the trumpet-led "The Girl from Surinam," the pressurized chugging of "The Thermodynamic Orchestra," and the singing-saw-over-approximate-toy-piano found in "South African Lady." There is no telling how painstaking and minute the building process must be to create the automatons for each "part" of the final score, but Bastien always achieves stunning results. The music limps and wobbles, but it follows its course, loops driven by cogs instead of computer chips, painting eerie and evocative aural landscapes. It's a perfect match for Doing's experiments with Super 8 and 16mm film and projectors, as can be seen on the unannounced (in the track list; Bastien mentions it vaguely in his liner notes) excerpt of Four Eyes included as a Quicktime movie on the disc. In it, you can even see some of Bastien's contraptions in action. ~ Franois Couture

The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday because for many retailers it was the day they went from being in the red to being in the black when they became profitable for the year. It is also the official beginning of the holiday shopping season, and Black Friday has become known for some of the best bargains, discounts and deals of the entire year! Everyone has watched stampeding crowds on the local news or diehard bargain hunters camping out overnight so they can be among the first to grab limited black friday specials at their favorite local retailers... However, if you prefer doing your holiday discount shopping from the warm and cozy comfort of home, then Cyber Monday was designed with you in mind! Online retailers spotted the Black Friday frenzy sweeping across the country as it took over brick and mortar locations - rather than compete for your black friday attention, they concocted a day that is all their own and named it Cyber Monday! The Monday after Thanksgiving is when your favorite online stores slash prices and offer their very best prices to help usher in the online holiday shopping season! That means big savings for you whether you choose to brave the local crowds on Black Friday or avoid the madness by browsing online during Cyber Monday Sales! Not to worry - the Friday and Monday after Thanksgiving might get the most attention for discount holiday shopping, but if you procrastinate beyond that magical bargain hunting window it doesn't mean you will be completely left out... In fact, this promises to be an exceptionally consumer-friendly holiday shopping season with sales, coupons and discounts extending far beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday and allowing you to find the best prices on holiday gifts until the very last minute! Hoping to avoid discount shopping withdrawal? Even after Christmas and Hanukkah have come and gone, you'll still have After Holiday Specials to help usher in the New Year!
