ee records re-release Pseudocode's 'Europa'

Pseudocode 'Europa' | CD 21 May 2010 | EE20 | limited edition 500 copies

Reissue of Pseudocode's vinyl legacy (2 EPs + 1 LP) remastered in superb sound quality by original member Alain Neffe of Insane fame, 30 years later!

Pseudocode (1979-1982) were a coherent unit of 3 individuals (Xavier S., Guy Marc Hinant and Alain Neffe), non-musicians even, combining emotions with electronic experiments, mostly improvised.

They called it 'potlatch music' and were only trying to express themselves through sound rather than pleasing an audience.

Within just a couple of years they released a fine body of work on vinyl and cassette (Insane Music, Pseudo Records, Sandwich Records) and international network compilations (Datenverarbeitung, Ding Dong, Korm Plastics, Grafika Airlines, Third Mind, Trax,....) and were even noticed by fellow experimentalists such as Harold Budd or Stephen Mallinder (Cabaret Voltaire).

Pseudo Records, 1981 (from: Nostalgie de la Boue)

Pseudo Code was a Belgian experimental - minimal synth band , active at least from 1979 - ?. Their mastermind Alain Neffe is also founder of Insane Music, one of the first great underground tape labels in Europe. Guy-Marc Hinan is one of the two guy's who made the "Sub Rosa" record label. Xavier S used to have a radio show on the Belgian national radio. The group had been temporarily shelved while Alain Neffe concentrated on his main project Bene Gesserit. "We play potlatch music which is emotional music, or more accurately emotional sounds, because we are not musicians".
