ADN’
CKRYSTALL aka Erick Moncollin surely does not need much of an introduction.
Every self-respecting minimal wave fan and synth nerd will have heard of the
French synth-wizard who jammed with Tim Blake and Vangelis on a MS-20 prototype
in the late 70s and whose 1982 cult album “Jazz’Mad” is considered a landmark in
the history of underground electronic music.
After a pause in the 90s (during
which Moncollin became active in the trance and ambient-techno scene under the
name Dr. STRANGE), several brilliant albums were released in the 2000s on Anna
Logue Records, La Forme Lente and Erick’s own ADN and Ysil’Prod labels. Treue um
Treue is honoured to present the project’s sixth full-length.
“Musique Atomique
Sans Surveillance” is a highly skilful, playful yet authentic blend of 70s prog
synth, early 80s minimal electro and 90s techno, flowing with ease from library
lounge music to spacey weird-wave to electronic exotica, reminiscent at times of
BERNARD SZAJNER and CLAUDE LARSON.
The spiciest note of this delicious
psychotropic cocktail is of course Erick’s unmistakable, demented yet committed
Deutsch-Frenglish lyrics, which make of ADN’ CKRYSTALL such a unique
experience.
