Lyonel Bauchet - Tractatus Lyra-Organismus [CD]

Film and media composer Lyonel Bauchet is best known for his mastery of the Buchla modular synthesiser. For his new album, Tractatus Lyra-Organismus, he has eschewed this familiar territory and instead focused on a collection of analogue gear from Soma Laboratory including the Lyra-8, described by them as an Organismic Synthesiser. Taking his inspiration from the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus by the 20th century Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, Bauchet has morphed the title of this inspirational work into a play on synth words. This is a true headphone album in that listening via this method will reveal the myriad details and beautiful complicity of this unique album.
