About "Law Speed" edit

AVANT GARDE FESTIVAL 2005/Jean-Hervé Péron: Permanent Fatal Eror is Olivier Manchion's solo project. Manchion is a founding member of Ulan Bator, a long standing member of the current faust line-up, bass player on Damo Suzuki's "Hollyaris" CD and very active as a solo performer. With his solo project he can present the more quiet aspects of his musical work, smoothe backgrounds, lightly dotted guitar sounds, equally inspired by Jazz and Rock elements. He is one of the creators of the new genre "Post-Jazz-Rock" (Arte). Manchion playfully manages the jump from" underground" to main feature. The French/German TV station Arte pays an ununsual hommage to his music: "Music hasn't been as filigree, as harmonic and at the same time as varied and clearly composed as by Permanent Fatal Error

Recommended Records/Chris Cutler: Another CD from Wallace, who seem to have uncovered a hidden Valley full of groups that play instruments and remind one of the attitude (though not necessarily the music) of the best of the early 70s experimentalists. Here Bass, 2 Guitars and Drums evolve a slow, minimal, rhythmically centred - Faust meets the Necks - programme that is both unusual and assured. Interesting
