Clan Analogue gets defocused with new compilation CD

--------------------------------

Clan Analogue Recordings is proud to announce the release of its newest
compilation CD, "Defocus".

Three years in the making, "Defocus" brings together a hugely diverse
collection of low resolution electronic productions from artists across
Australia. Anti-production, incidental noise, low bit-rate recordings and
analogue tape dropouts make sporadic appearances throughout the release,
resulting in a CD that invites listeners to question their received
notions of electronic production and to locate the sound inside the error
messages.

From the 8-bit loops of Adelaide`s Parlour to the subterranian bass tones
of Kazumichi Grime through to the tempo-twisting digital manipulations of
Two4K and on to the relentless white noise of Ars Electronica-veteran Alex
Davies, "Defocus" charts a path through ambient, dub, minimalist
techno, electro, noise and lofi. Each artist supplies their own practical
critique of pre-ordained composition and production methodologies, thereby
producing a CD that is both consistently listenable and fundamentally
disjointed.

With the "Defocus" CD well-known names from the Clan Analogue stable
including PBXO, Disco Stu, Deepchild, Kazumichi Grime and Dark Network
join with Clan newcomers including Two4K and Fluffy T (both formerly of
Melbourne super-group Future Sound of Brunswick), Terry Nation, Shimmer
and Able Child, along with loads of other groups who are all
highly respected in their own areas (Tolchok, Alex Davies, Zog, Clowns
Smiling Backwards vs Windup Toys, Evan on Earth).
