about

Shimyo & Antoine Portes — out of the dark into the blue, two undead punks team up after ten years of silence to provide a flat world with some colourful texture.

An endless eighties revival, a worldwide music made of coarse clichés, four chords in cycle all over the radio, Matrix 4... The Spectacle has eaten so much that it is now condemned to feed on its own excrements — it has become its own caricature and is about to throw up like a suicidal clown.

In the midst of such desperate times, we thought "How about something new?"

Here it is dressed up in dusty rags. Here it is and not on any radio, don't expect anything mainstream.

Shimyo:
Metal machines, Black magic, Street credibility.

Antoine Portes:
Well-tempered synthesisers, Heretic science, Irrelevant metaphysics.

100% D.I.Y.


NB: Apart from "Ten years asleep", downloading individual tracks doesn't really make sense since we had to chop "Sonata" into three parts and "ingirumimusnocte" into seven parts (the original files were too large...), and the Stasimon (track 5 here) is nothing but an introduction to "ingirumimusnocte". The full album download includes a txt file with a download link and the archive's password for the unsliced HD version.
It also includes 2000-pixel jpg files for the front and back covers.

I write music, sometime for its inherent beauty, sometime for an existing or soon-to-be motion picture — every time because I can't do anything else.
