Released in 1980, shortly after Suicide's second full-length, Martin Rev was freed to explore his most experimental and pop leanings with dirty synths, dark melodies and dreamlike textures, and produced a masterpiece of modern alienation that captures a uniquely New York landscape.
Rev's debut echoes other electronic forerunners such as Silver Apples and Kraftwerk, and foreshadows the work of Aphex Twin and Air.
The album was originally released on preeminent No Wave label Infidelity (Lust/Unlust)
Now there's the irst time reissue of Suicide instrumentalist's debut solo album from 1980.
The insert includes a new Rev interview by musician/critic Alan Licht
What a surprise. On the day of his 66th birthday, David Bowie has just released a new song and video and has announced a new album, entitled "The Next Day", due to be released in March 2013, with long-time friend Tony Visconti as producer.
"Where Are We Now?", Bowie's first song in 10 years, has a very sad and melancholy atmosphere. The video shows him as a puppet in some artist's workplace with video footage from Berlin. The lyrics deal with nostalgia, remembrance and death with references to Potzdamer Platz, Nurnberger Strasse, Bose Brucke, etc. Does it indicate a return to the Berlin trilogy? The visual of the album shows the cover of Heroes with "The Next Day" printed on it.
There had been rumors about Bowie's bad health: it's great to see he's doing well! Happy birthday, Mr. Bowie!
