Beaulieau, Emil – “Moonlight In Vermont ” – [Rrrecords]

cinder   9/21/2007   A Library, CD

“Emil Beaulieau: America???s Greatest Living Noise Artist??? is the stage name of Ron Lessard. Noise artist out of Massachusetts, known for his “anti-record” technique of “treating” vinyl (drilling, painting, melting…) to make them into noise pieces.
Each cover for this release was handmade by him. It sounds a lot like a silent lab testing facility. Lots of long high and low pitched frequencies that buzz and drone together, making you feel like you forgot to wear earplugs last nite at that loud ass
performance. And of course there’s the gut churning electronic noise, oh how it burns. The last track has some rhythm to it if you want something that’s not just straight noise.
