Artist: snd
Title: makesnd cassette, tender love
Label: Mille Plateaux
Year: 1999, 2002
Designer: unspecified, but surely by snd themselves?
Type of music: could write reams about this, but how about syncopated electronic minimalism?
Notes: Snd’s graphics are as rigorous and playful as their music. I particularly like tender love’s combination of lovely colours, sentimental associations and digital waveforms. These albums are regretably as rare as hen’s teeth since Mille Plateaux went bankrupt. I had hoped to include their second album, Stdio, which I bought from discogs, but my copy seems to have gone missing somewhere between here and Hong Kong. If anyone wants to sell me a copy do let me know!
