PTOSE
Ignobles Limaces
Ptôse possess an early electro-wave-experimental sound with lots of primitive electronics, drum machines, and funny voices. It is all obviously influenced by The Residents as well as groups like Tuxedomoon, Der Plan, Pyrolater, etc, yet remains unmistakably French. This album probably resonates even stronger today in these post-post times than it did upon its original release in 1984. Reissued on 180 gram vinyl.
early recordings 1979-83 Lp-2
In the early 1980's, Ptose emerged from Niort, France. They were a trio who released a couple of albums, earning some comparisons to The Residents, and then they dissapeared from view - terrific minimal proto-techno stuff here, highly recommended
