I wanted to share a second release I have that just came out on the great french Dement3d records. It's a collaborative project with François X and myself called Hiss:1292. Rough and raw jtechno ams, with the little fun things of my studio.
I hope you like it
You can preview it here:
It's out in most shops, and I highly recommend http://www.clone.nl
Here's the promo mumbo-jumbo.

Promo Text:
Feedbacks:It has never been concealed : the guys behind the curtains are Opuswerk and Francois X. The latter is found at postal codes between 1200 and 1209 in Switzerland, the second in 92... right near Paris. Hence 1292. Nobody's hiding here... Nobody ? Well, not quite. For this new project at least hides something, or some mysterious spirits that may have chosen to haunt these vinyl grooves. Four of them to be correct ; namely Augun, Damballah, Eshu and Simbi ; four Veves of the Dahomey and Yoruba Vodoo traditions, four complex and intense spirits that have seized Hiss:1292?s music to make it their own. It is often the intuition of similarities between voodoo and techno that pushes some producers to chose their tracks names with Vodun keywords. Indeed, intense experiences one can endure in some effective techno installment can sometimes approach the mental images we have of Voodoo trance and seizures. Here, the process has been different. The voodoo theme was unintended at first, but it seemed like a spell had been cast on the record, and the artists were bound to name their music after the spirits that dwell within.If you are curious enough to read a little about Augun, Damballah, Eshu, and Simbi while you listen to the EP, you'll probably get an eerie feeling, the machine feel of techno will start to peel off, and you'll get the strange impression you're listening to something else. And don't you worry. The way it has been arranged, those spells should all be very benign... We hope you'll get enthralled as much as we did in this one !
