Don bridges come on down…
todays post is inspired by a fairly recent, if somewhat lucid conversation, with one of our more mysterious commentators - mr don bridges. on a somewhat ‘more balearic than usual’ evening in common bar, we got on to the topic of the french production duo nova nova - aka marc durif & michel gravil. now these guys have been going since the early 90’s, being marked in some quarters as pioneers of the french electronic/ambient/techno scene. after meeting at school in the near tropical surroundings of nice, in southern france, they want on to release numerous singles and an album for laurent garniers f-comm label…
anyway, not sure what these guys are up to now a days, but i thought i would dig out a couple of my favourite tunes. first up is ‘aleph’ from the 1994 ‘maeta�ysic ep’, and second up is the full length 11 minute version of ‘djgg’, off the 1995 ‘nova nova ep’. the last i heard of these two was the release of the memories lp back in 2004, which was basically a re-rub of all their old tunes - two of which are available here…

weird synchronised bleep posts there Mr Scholes; we must be somehow connected on a higher plane or something (too much selected ambient works!)
