Description:

The second and last release by this most exquisite and eccentric of groups, who hardly touched the world of working bands, and whose existence was tenuous, flickering, mythological - and yet who managed, to find it's way to legendary status - rather like Duchamp's fountain, by leaving an indelible trace in recorded form of their verifiable existence. If Captain Beefheart had been Erik Satie

"Traite De Mecanique Populaire" is a groundbreaking album by the French avant-garde duo ZNR, released in CD format by the renowned label Rer. Originally issued in 1978, this record stands as a unique blend of experimental music, minimalism, and chamber pop with subtle jazz influences. The compositions are characterized by their delicate interplay between acoustic instruments and electronic textures, creating an atmosphere that is both whimsical and intellectually stimulating. ZNR?comprised of Hector Zazou and Joseph Racaille?crafted soundscapes that defy easy categorization but have influenced generations of adventurous musicians since. Their innovative approach has earned them cult status among fans of progressive and experimental music worldwide. ZNR was formed in France during the mid-1970s, bringing together composer/producer Hector Zazou (who later worked with artists like Björk) and multi-instrumentalist Joseph Racaille. Together they created two albums that became milestones in European avant-garde music: "Barricade 3" (1976) and "Traite De Mecanique Populaire." Their work is celebrated for its originality, blending classical sensibilities with modern experimentation. Rer Megacorp (Recommended Records), founded by Chris Cutler in 1978, is a pioneering independent label specializing in experimental rock, avant-garde music, and contemporary composition. With decades-long dedication to supporting boundary-pushing artists from around the globe?including Henry Cow, Art Bears, Univers Zero?the label remains synonymous with innovation within alternative music scenes.
