descriptif / file under :
Des paysages ambient-electronic enchaînés à de longues dérives minimal-techno proches des productions de Mille-Plateaux. Cet album d'Andy Diey fait écho, sur un mode mid-tempo, à Foreign Terrain; un de ses autres projet plus cinématographique (cf. "LP1" sur SoleilMoon).
Ambient-electronic scenes followed by long minimal-techno variations close to Mille-Plateaux productions. In its mid-tempo mode, Andy Diey's album echoes Foreign Terrain, one of his more film-oriented projects (cf. "LP1" on SoleilMoon).
Basé à Manchester, Andy Diey a longtemps côtoyé Muslimgauze. D'où les ambiances moyen-orientales que l'on ressent fortement au début du tracklisting. Il prépare actuellement avec Rapoon (ex-Zoviet France), un album-hommage à Bryn Jones.
Being based in Manchester, Andy Diey has been close to Muslimgauze for a long time. Hence, the strong Middle-Eastern atmosphere at the beginning of the tracklisting. With Rapoon (ex Zoviet France), he's presently preparing a tribute album to Bryn Jones.
Andy Diey est également un adepte du dub comme en témoigne l'aspect "breakbeat & bass" de certains morceaux. Il œuvre pour la bass-music sous le pseudo Black Faction via lequel il a signé notamment un album paru sur SoleilMoon ("Internal Dissident"), un titre prémonitoire ("Afghan Front V2.1") sur la compil "Docking Sequence" chez BSI Rec. (aux côtés de Dub Creator, Jah Warrior, Sound Secretion, Alpha & Omega, Twilight Circus, Raz Mesinai, DJ Spooky) et un remix pour The Rootsman ("Exodus").
Andy Diey is also a dub follower as some "breakbeat & bass" tracks assess it. He performs bass-music under the name of Black Faction and signed in particular an album ("Internal Dissident") released by SoleilMoon; a premonitory title ("Afghan Front V2.1") on "Docking Sequence" compilation, released by BSI Rec. (also featuring: Dub Creator, Jah Warrior, Sound Secretion, Alpha & Omega, Twilight Circus, Raz Mesinai, DJ Spooky), and a remix ("Exodus") for The Rootsman.
Andy Diey a aussi composé pour des labels tels que Skam et Plug Research et se produit en live lorsque son travail d'ingénieur du son lui en laisse le temps. Il existe quelques bootlegs d'un mix à Vienne ainsi que d'une performance lors de la soirée "Nesh" organisée par le prestigieux label Warp… Premier album édité par le label HTz après les compils "Dub This Net" et "Drum-n-Tunez", cette référence ouvre une série d'albums coordonnés par Laurent Diouf aka "Wreck This Mess"

First album realeased by HTz label, after "Dub This Net" and "Drum-n-Tunez" compilations, this reference is the forerunner of a series co-ordinated by Laurent Diouf aka "Wreck This Mess"
