Various Artists - XII Caesars
|
CD-r

67min, Pro-duplicated CD-R in full color jewel case w/portrait cards. A psychoacoustic investigation of "The Twelve Caesars" as immortalized by Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus. From Julius (49 BC) to Domitian (96 AD). 145 years of treachery, brutality, spectacle and debauchery. A rogue's gallery of ancient dictators. The medium is experimental electronics: noise, dark ambient, death industrial, power electronics. Nine exclusive tracks by artists as varied as the subject matter: Exsanguinate, Tugend, Murderous Vision, Bestia Centauri, Post Scriptvm, Survival Unit, Ond, Axone and Marspiter. Also includes the debut track from a new collaborative project between Axone & Marspiter: The Great Despisers.
If you remember the last comp to come out on this label, you know this is not your typical compilation. Each artist was assigned an Emperor and given an excerpt from the Suetonius text for inspiration. The theme is articulated faithfully and brilliantly by all projects involved.
