20 artistes 72.15 min (20 artists 72:15 minutes) is the menu proposed by small electronic label Déluge with this compilation. A multitude of genres and attitudes perfect for summer by artists from Québec City.
Déluge presents three new 2002 fall releases. First, on Saccacomie, four musicians remix a classic country composition by Rodrigue Frappier. Also, Raphaël Simard aka Le Packageur, proposes his last opus, Rond Rond. Finally, A_dontigny (one half of morceaux_de_machines) offers a mad deconstruction of Québec pop music with On est 7 millions, faut s’sampler!.
Small Québec City label, Déluge is the second half of the “Alterflow” collective. While “Néon-magazine” gathers under its wings the electro-pop ventures of this collective, Déluge promotes more challenging experimental projects. As part of its task of making difficult music available to the greatest number, www.electrocd.com is proud to propose the latest titles from Gabriel Dharmoo, Le Chien borgne, Malade Mojo and Arborisationterminale. All presented in unique hand-made covers, Déluge’s albums are a unique doorway to some of Québec’s best new electronic music.
Alterflow, a Quebec electronic and experimental music label founded in 1997, split itself into complementary entities in 2001: Néon Magazine (electro-pop) and Déluge (electronic and experimental). Déluge's main goal is to promote Quebec electronic musicians. This small CDR label proposes unique hand-made albums reflecting the peculiar aesthetic visions of its artists. This label is currently curated by Guillaume Théroux Rancourt (Le Chien borgne).
