About The Exquisite Corpse:
The Exquisite Corpse first originated as a strange and vulgar parlor game favored by the avantgarde surrealist groups in Paris, whereby one artist would draw a part of the subjects anatomy, pass it on for the next to add to and so on… we are led now to the present day when two elusive and mysterious producers felt the need to inject a bit of experimentation back into the ever diluted techno scene.
Apart they have graced the sleeves of 12″s everywhere from Chicken lips label Hairy Claw to Soma and Pokerflat..together they now embark on this most unwholesome of journeys..
So why the clandestine approach? they believe that in an age when most producers are more concerned about their myspace profile and cover shots than really breaking down barriers and blazing new trails, it’s ever more important to bust out of the genre shells we are sometimes placed in and take this art-form into new territory.
An unlikely collaboration between these characters was struck up in the bathroom of a popular club venue over an argument about whiskey and card games-this led the two debaucherous crones to first a fist fight and then on to the studio..in which till this day their new music drips with a weird hybrid of techno, freaky space disco and outright peak-time ecstacy …
In their own words..”We do this for the rabble,the fiends…you’re guaranteed a show”.
