“This recording is the second in a series produced during Mutek. It symbolizes our desire to foster meetings and collaborations amongst artists during their stay in Montréal for the festival. During the 2002 edition of Mutek, four artists invited by the festival decided to repeat the experience of turning a hotel room into a sound laboratory.

The resulting CD contains seven piece of dense, sometimes harsh, sometimes relaxing, electronic experiments. And tomorrow’s in another hotel room.
