More Anne Gillis to deal with, not that were complaining. Veteran Belgian sound artist Timo Van Luijks uses his excellent La Scie Dore in reviving Gillis 1984 mind-mangler Aha originally released on the Bordeaux label DMA2 but then pretty much buried ever since.

The timing feels great however, Gillis recent revival of sorts (undoubtable engineered by Japanese store Art Into Life) that thrust her work back into the spotlight of this tiny little corner of experimental music. Whether in the early 80s or present day, her crude tape concrete is as confronting as ever – a hack-sawn link between the prestigious world of the INA-GRM acousticatique and the black-clad worlds of industrial noise. Disconcerting depth of field, vocal yelps, skewed electronics and collaged found sound is roughly splattered into something inexplicably absorbing and psychedelic. But most importantly, its still very punk – much like the work of her late associate (and assumed friend) Ghdalia Tazarts, Anne Gillis is a true outsider that cant be tamed. (Mint / New)
