"Gdyby Elvis powrócil z zaświatów, myślę, że brzmiałby jak Alan Vega" - Bruce Springteen dla MOJO
Płyta dwóch gigantów Marca Hurtado (Etant Donnes) i Alana Vegi (Suicide) czyli eksperymentalny elektro-rock z gościnnym udziałem Lydii Lunch.
ALAN VEGA is literally a legend. SUICIDE, formed by the duo Rev and Vega is the spearhead of a punk trend which immersed all of a sudden in a fusion of waves and electronic loops.
Since that period Vega became an icon for rock music and electronic generations..
Vega's flow, and the scansion of this white hot crooner sound fractured and charismatic.
Everything is Rock, his leather jackets, his art and soul highly charged.
So aesthetic, a rockabilly singing in a breathless style, wearing dusty pink and yelling metal make up. He is nowadays a Myth all around the world.
Marc Hurtado gained his experience in the 80's with his brother Eric, they were called « ETANT DONNES ». Their albums, films and performances are highly appreciated in Beauboug,the Fondation Cartier, the Rennes Transmusicales,the Barcelona Sonar Festival, the Kitchen in New york and The French Cinematèque.
In the years 2000, Marc Hurtado produced some original soundtracks ( for Philippe Gandrieux and Jessica Hausner), but he is also known for his collaborations with Lydia Lunch, Genesis P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV), Michael Gira (Swans), Gabi Delgado (DAF), The Hacker, Sky Saxon (The Seeds), Les Maîtres Musiciens de Jajouka, his project Sol Ixent with the German singer Saba Komossa (Delkom)... and of course Alan Vega. Hurtado recorded four tracks in the album Re-Up in 1999 and were together on stage in France and Europe (Centre Pompidou, Lieu Unique de Nantes with Christophe) and he also produced in 2009 the film « The Infinite Mercy Film) dedicated
to the art work of Alan Vega.
