AQUASERGE
New Information Order EP
In the wake of their new album La fin de l’économie (‘The end of Economy’), Aquaserge are releasing an EP featuring a cover of a song by the great Robert Wyatt, one of the band’s major inspirations.
Aquaserge’s version of N.I.O. (New Information Order), off Wyatt’s Dondestan album, comes with French lyrics written by the band. Also included is a new song, Escalade (‘climbing’, or ‘escalation’).
The EP sees the band further display their love for allegoric music, non-visual films, ostinatos, format-free songs, and keep spinning the thread of their socio-poetical ideas.
Aquaserge got in touch with Robert Wyatt to present their cover version project, here’s a loose transcript of their phone conversation:

The Crammed Electronic Archives series
As the Crammed Discs label turns 43, we’re highlighting certain folds of our catalogue which have now somewhat receded into the shade. Aside from the reactivated Made To Measure composers’ series, we’re digging into electronic music trends we explored during the ’80s and ‘90s by digitally releasing around 250 tracks which only ever came out on vinyl (or on now-deleted CDs). These digital reissues are being rolled out over a couple of years, in several phases, each consisting of a compilation plus several related EPs:
Phase 1: Rare SSR Electronica 1988-94 (Crammed Archives 1) - out now
Phase 2: Rare Global Pop 1980s (Crammed Archives 2) - out now
Phase 3: Rare Electronica 1994-01 (Crammed Archives 3) - in progress
Phase 4: Rare Electronica B-sides 1988-97 (Crammed Archives 4): soon
