Finally finished this album requested by many visitors. Sound Cosmodel contains 50 short tracks by a variety of international musicians.The album includes a nice large booklet featuring 'postcard' contributions from each artist/group.
Musically, this collection jumps all over the place from industrial, noise, synth, no wave, jazz, improv, rock...
A few of my favorites tracks here are:
Woo - The Western (for those who aren't familiar, I suggest checking out Mutant Sounds for their excellent LPs)
Morgan Fisher - Africasio (Jon Appleton-like melodic electronic droplets)
Banana - Kenosuna (With a wicked dark bass stab that, for many years now, I still keep expecting a Ed Rush/Nico (or insert many other d&b artists)-type beat to drop)
Feliu Gasull - La Tigre sa de Berna (flamenco guitar music that provides am interesting contrast to much of the other music on this album. This is exactly the impression I had of his appearance on Angelic Technology cassette posted here last year)
Con - Hommage a Kyoto (Conrad Schnitzler's signature synth sound circa his Egg label LP)
Sonoko Yasuda - George Boy (aka Sonoko, who released an LP & 7" on Crammed)
Nasmak provides a track that reminds me of This Heat
