M.B. (Maurizio Bianchi) - "NH/HN" - (Grafika Airlines Cassette GRA5 ) 1981

Bianchi recreates the demolition of a Nuclear Power plant in Electronic sound. The failing Hum of generators serenaded by the pulse of pneumatic jackhammers echoing through the crumbling chambers of Chernobyl's reactor B.Encase this C-60 in concrete and it'll drill its own way out to freedom to spread its healing radiation in your direction.
Music for technophobes and Luddites alike.
(Released on the Belgian Grafika Airlines Label in 1981.)

A		Neuro Habitat	30:25

Mecanique Végétale - " Musique pour Self-Service " - ( Grafika Airlines – GRA 8 ) 1981

Released on the rather marvelous Grafika Airlines cassette label from.....Belgium; this is an outstanding creation of epicly hypnotique, minimally electronique proportions. Reminds one greatly of the equally superb Sea Of Wires, from around the same era. Most likely they used the exact same budget synths, made to sound even lower budget by the splendid medium of ferric oxide cassette tape.
So, get in your home made flotation tank and regress to the analogue beauty of "Musique Pour Self-Service".( whether that alludes to some sort of masturbatory accompaniment I do not know? Its up to you.)

Cortex - " Souvenir / Souvenirs " - ( Grafika Airlines GRA 20) 1984

Another classic from superb Belgian label Grafika Airlines.
Basically it`s Alain Neffe, of Bene Gesserit and the Insane Music cassette label fame, with various sultry voiced female francophones, recorded from an astonishingly early 1975 to 1982.
Minimal is the word, and reminds one of the two Kluster albums from 1970/71.
A stark one tone electronic backing, fronted by  part narrated/ part sung, dialogue provided by the various girlies listed on the inlay card above.
Those Belgians sure know the meaning of the mantra: "Its not what you put in , its what you leave out".
And Cortex certainly left out a lot on this proto-Minimalist relic of a future that never happened.

I Scream - "Tomorrrow is Another Day" - (Grafika Airlines GRA21) 1986

Another Alain Neffe pseudonym I wager. Sounds very similar to anything he has to do with. Structureless electronics swirling around melodyless synth noodling, then it stops, and another starts. This is Do It Yourself music for people with no musical ability whatsoever.
Which is a good thing, because if Music was left to musicians, experimental music would probably not exist, except in a very exclusive high-brow world where Alain Neffe would be eternally exiled from. This is Punk culture in its purest form.The fact that these tracks were recorded between 1973 and  1978 makes this "proto-punk" and could well claim to be heavily influenced by various Krautrockers, probably Cluster more than anything else one believes.
