Synopsis

Product Description
O is the first new Oval album in nearly a decade, a striking 70-track double-CD (and double-LP) and the follow up to May's Oh EP (Thrill 12.44) by electronic pioneer Markus Popp. Popp is often credited as the creator of what was later dubbed the "glitch" or "clicks & cuts" style. Popp TMs mid-'90s albums Systemisch (Thrill-032) and 94Diskont (Thrill-036) took the world of electronic music and turned it on its head. He went on to create sound sculptures that were exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. Now this genre defining artist is emphasizing the musician that was hiding behind the technician. The result is a celebration in delicacy and detail: handcrafted polyrhythmic phrases, riffs and structures, bristling with tiny resonances. Named for a new beginning, (ground zero if you will), O is just that: fresh and new.
