French sound poet Anne-James Chaton will team up with post-punk icon Andy Moor on a new collaborative full-length.
Chaton’s work typically involves tinkering with “low” literary forms – pamphlets, flyers, bus tickets and the like. He’s made numerous excursions into more conventionally musical fields, appearing on Alva Noto’s univrs LP and securing a spot on Rough Trade’s Electronic 11 compilation back in 2011. Over the last ten years, he’s collaborated with anything-goes Dutch radicals The Ex, and worked with Ex guitarist Andy Moor on last year’s Décade LP for experimental electronic hotbed Raster-Noton.
Transfer will compile a string of collaborative Chaton/Moor 7″s, sporadically issued over the last two years on Dutch imprint Unsounds. All four of the singles – Princess In A Car, Departures, Inbound/Outbound and Flying Machines – will be represented. Two new tracks, ‘Journal D’un Naufrage’ and ‘Journey On The Pequod’, will also feature.
Moor and Chaton will play East London spot Cafe OTO on June 2 – head here for further information. [via Juno Plus]
Transfer is due on Unsounds on May 3.
