Discrete Desires Music CD

Making her recording debut just two years ago in 2013, Helenas first release was a 3-track EP Actio Reactio - on Actress Werkdiscs imprint. She has since partnered with PAN (as Black Sites alongside F#x), Lux Rec, Bunker sublabel Panzerkreuz and Texan cassette imprint Handmade Birds to share her overtly analogue excursions into technos shadowy fringes, improvised and recorded in her bedroom studio in Hamburg. Fully embracing her love of hardware, Helena joined James Dean Browns legendary electronic improv outfit Hypnobeat (founded back in 1983) in 2013, blazing a trail across Europe with their intense polyrhythmic jam sessions on the TB-303, TR-707 and TR-808. I have the feeling its more one-to-one you do something and then the machine reacts. The machine has its own mind too, so it gives something back. Ten tracks deep, Discreet Desires is the embodiment of Helenas deep-seated beliefs about music as a radical force and unifying movement. Something that is evident from her growing stature as a selector and her enthusiasm for musical subcultures from punk to nu wave, industrial, krautrock and avant garde electro all of which were rooted in raw experimentation and existed in polar opposition to the perfect, polished mainstream.Perfection is pretty boring. It doesnt really exist anyway...only in death. Death is perfect.
