AXXESS - Twilight Ride (1983)
Loading...
Uploaded by subunitfour on Apr 16, 2011
The first musical project of Patrick Mimran, French businessman and artist, resident in Switzerland, who also happened at this time to be boss of Lamborghini cars.
Mimran's fascination for electronic music led him to experiment with a Moog modular synthesizer before commissioning Peter Baumann (ex-Tangerine Dream) and audio engineer Andreas Bahrdt to design and build a powerful digital synthesizer/sequencer/sampler that would rank alongside the vastly expensive NED Synclavier and Fairlight CMI systems.
The 1983 album Novels For the Moons was recorded entirely on this custom machine, and stood out mainly for its myriad fast-paced overlaid sequences. No great differences in sounds from one track to the next, but some amazing sequencing by Mimran and 'Howard Bedman', assumed to be an alias for Baumann. I first heard it courtesy of UK EM magazine Electronics & Soundmaker and it has a special place in the hearts of most who encountered it in this way.
After a few solo album releases, the best of which is undoubtedly Back To Earth (1987), Mimran is now better known as an artist who works in multi-media as well as painting and photography.
